Russia’s Public Chamber urged law enforcers to deal with the established situation around LiveJournal blog hosting, which was triply subjected to large-scale hack attacks on March 30-April 6.

The statement voiced by editor-in-chief of Moskovsky Komsomolets paper and member of the Public Chamber Pavel Gusev during the April 7 sitting of the Chamber also reads that “it is necessary to legislatively toughen the responsibility for deliberate attacks on websites,” Lenta.ru reported.

“I think some LiveJournal users will now move to other social platforms until Livejournal is restored. We should wait for several days to understand the situation,” information security expert and LiveJournal user Samvel Martirosyan commented to a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter earlier.

According to another Armenian blogger, LiveJournal user Sedrak Mkrtchyan, the recent hack attacks aimed against LiveJournal social media platform possibly intend to disperse LiveJournal users among other social networks.

“The attacks were carefully planned, although the final purpose remains unclear,” he noted.
