The group has been responsible for hacking Portugal's institutional websites, such as the police, parliament, secret services and political parties, for hours.“The attacks made on the internet proved to the country that there is a response to the tactics utilized by the police against the activists,” a Portuguese social activist told Press TV reporter.
