The Movement of Free Citizens (PSG) announced that the official email account of the movement received a security warning from Google that "state-sponsored" actors tried to compromise that account.

  • The Movement of Free Citizens (PSG) announced that the party's official email account received a security warning from Google about attempts to compromise the account.
  • The attackers are labeled as "government-backed attackers", that is, connected to the government or the state.
  • PSG claims no affiliation with by previous monitoring their MP Ana Oreg, but says that experience obliges him to take the threat seriously.
  • The party asks the competent institutions to investigate who is behind this attempt and to protect political organizations ahead of the October 25 elections.
  • It has not been announced who the attacker is, whether the account was really compromised or what data it contains.

WHAT HAPPENED

According to the PSG announcement, the warning refers to an attempt to compromise the communication and data of a political organization.

PSG says that this is not the first pressure on it and recalls the case of recordings from the premises of the Novi Sad board, which were broadcast on television, and on monitoring of MP Ana Oreg, about which she asked questions to the competent institutions in the Parliament and to this day she has not received answers.

PSG emphasizes that it does not claim that there is a direct link between that monitoring and the new warning. He asks that institutions investigate the case and protect political organizations and their members. The sources we used do not state that the authorities have made an announcement regarding the announcement. 

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?

The security of communication of political parties affects the trust of voters in the electoral process, and PSG itself emphasizes this. If it turns out that the parties are the target of attacks, it does not concern only one organization, but all those participating in the elections on October 25.

The party's account contains correspondence, contacts and plans, so its members and associates are directly affected. The question is also who examines attempts to break into the accounts of political organizations and how data about them is protected, because it depends on whether the institutions can respond to such allegations.

In the beginning was virtue.

At the moment when the institutions of the Republic are destroyed, when Vučić's octopus is still alive, when people are disgusted by the injustice and the stench left behind by the Essenes regime, we have, as Machiavelli said, only civic virtue as the fuel with which we can return to the beginning
