Wikipedia was hit with a malicious attack that has taken it offline in several countries for intermittent periods. The attack is ongoing and our Site Reliability Engineering team is working hard to stop it and restore access to the site. We condemn these sorts of attacks. Takedown attacks threaten everyones fundamental rights to freely access and share information. We in the Wikimedia movement and Foundation are committed to protecting these rights for everyone. Were continuing to restore access wherever you might be reading Wikipedia in the world.”]
