The blog of the Tunisian journalist and blogger Slim Boukhdhir has been hacked and deleted. The work seems to be done by the same group of hackers who are targeting Tunisian opposition websites and blogs.

Next to censorship, hacking is a serious problem that dissent Tunisian websites and blogs are dealing with.
