Tba aeoterrorist tampering occurred in the earfy morning hours of July 9th, when the entire content of the rite was erased and replaced with other files. Such unauthorised entry and vandalism and an Internet web rite is a federal crime and is handled by a special unit of the FBI, the International Computer Crimea Unit. Terrorism experts define ecoterror aa any crime committed for the ostensible purpose of defending nature. This particular ecoterroriat incident waa quickly reported to the county association and the authentic page with all its files and links waa quickly restored. The county association noted that the Internet ia plagued with thia kind of tampering, called hacking. While security measures are slowly being improved, oven rites and computer networks with very sophisticated security systems, including thoae maintained by the Department of Defense and other federal agencies, have been the victims of such illegal activity. The county association haa instituted additional security measures for its BS2477 rite but admite there ie little which can be done to guarantee the siflite'tyj oTcninmaf atftiv- ity will not occur again. This attempt to criminally "censure a particular point ofview or to prevent the public and policy makers from having access to critical facte and analysis on an important public policy isaua like BS2477 strikea at the very foundation of our democracy, Johnson noted.
