The Democratic Progressive Partys (DPP) official website was attacked by Chinese hackers early Tuesday morning, and the website was replaced with pictures and words reading Chinese netizens are supporting Tsai Ing-wen to run for re-election in simplified Chinese characters. DPP spokesperson Kolas Yotaka said on Tuesday noon that the cyber attack took place between 1:30 a.m. and 2 a.m. July 3, and the party will heighten its cybersecurity after the hack. (English)
