I think that the 'why' looses it intrigue when you consider that there is little done to convey their purpose to anyone other than 1)the pissed off blog owner and 2)their competing frienemies and script kiddies...
"... we do this to protest against somethings, for example the last month I think there was a genocide agains the Uygurs in the west of China and we just hacked around one thousand websites of the chinesse government.
Our web page is: www.ayyildiz.org..."
It seems more is said in this short interview about their supposed 'moral motivations' and logic for these attacks than the attacks themselves actually conveyed.
To make a real stance against something, wouldn't it prove far more beneficial to compose a multi language (Translate) well thought out argument instead of posting a few Turkish sentences and a flag Gif as a protest? A few lines of CSS and javascript to actually provide usable reference and material to viewers about what it is you feel strongly enough about to actually hack another's property over?
I feel like this type of hack is more of a <i>"I'm a rebel (because I am a kid) and am going to tag this bridge because I have a can of paint and no one is there to catch me doing it - I'm a protester because I tagged it 'Pigs suck!'"</i>
But again, in my day when 16 year olds where 'acting out against society' with netbus and BackOrifice on my school pcs
