“Hackers have hit back in retaliation for US cyber-spying on Brazil but mistook the US space agency NASA for the National Security Agency (NSA), a news website reported here Tuesday. ‘Some activists decided to protest this US practice but it seems that they picked the wrong target,’ a specialized blog of the Brazilian news portal Uol said. ‘They hacked NASA’s web page and left the message: Stop spying on us,’ it said. The hackers’ message also called on the United States not to attack Syria. A NASA spokesman confirmed that a Brazilian hacker group last week posted a political message on a number of NASA websites.”
