kan0r writes "The transparency group Wikileaks.org currently seems to be under under heavy fire. The main Wikileaks.org DNS entry is unavailable. Rumor has it that this is due to a court case relating to a series of articles and documents released by Wikileaks about off shore trust structures in the Cayman Islands. The Wikileaks whistleblower, alledgedly former vice president of the Cayman Islands branch of swiss bank Julius Baer, states in the Wikileaks documents that the bank supported tax evasion and money laundering by its clients from around the world.

Wikileaks alternate names remained available, until Saturday when there seems to have been a heavy DDoS attack and a fire at the ISP. The documents in question are still available on other Wikileaks sites such as http://wikileaks.be/ and http://wikileaks.cx/ and are also mirrored on cryptome.org."
