Mass Hacker Attack Due Sunday
04-Jul-2003

Watch out: The Department of Homeland Security and private technology experts are warning us that hackers plan to attack thousands of websites on Sunday in a coordinated "contest" that could disrupt traffic on the internet. Their goal is to vandalize 6,000 websites in six hours. The government has already detected surveillance probes by hackers looking for weaknesses in corporate and government networks.

That did actually happen but not many participated and the whole thing was a hoax it was just a rumor, those computer dudes always get paranoid.
