The campaign posters of the Peace & Justice Party (Fred og rettferdighet, FOR) on the Oslo Metro have garnered a lot of attention the past few days. On Monday, May 19th, the party's website experienced downtime, the news publication Dagen reports.

The party itself states that the downtime is due to a cyberattack.

"Peace & Justice's website is currently being attacked. We apologize if our website has bad functionality," a message on the website reads.

The Peace & Justice Party created much ado over the weekend as campaign posters appeared on the Oslo Metro. The party is campaigning in fall's parliamentary election, and believes that the 85 billion NOK that the {Storting|parliament} plans to use on support for Ukraine, should instead be spent on welfare in Norway.

The campaign may have costed 1.4 million NOK, but the party has only registered 50,000 NOK in campaign donations, according to VG. The party has thus far refused to say who has financed the campaign.

I hate the long scale/short scale thing, I always mess that up too when trying to quickly translate something to English. Millionen/milliarden, mil milliones, etc.

Don't beat yourself up about it, you're doing great!

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
