ANONYMOUS HACKS GOVERNMENT WEBSITES
Anonymous uploaded a video on YouTube in which they claimed they hacked the websites because Mr Key refused to listen to protests and uproar over the ''despicable piece of legislation''.
"It's pretty juvenile behaviour in my view," Mr John Key said.
"These people are obviously doing something that's both illegal and inappropriate. And they're trying to make their own political point. But their point's wrong."
The websites would remain offline until National patched its web servers or withdrew the bill and apologised to those it had affected, including Kim Dotcom, Anonymous said.
But Dotcom, one of the bill's harshest critics, called for the cyber attacks to stop.
The internet mogul tweeted a warning to the hackers that they were only adding to Mr Key's reasoning to pass the GCSB bill.
"Dear Anonymous NZ, hacking National Party websites is just giving John Key a new excuse to pass the GCSB bill (cybercrime). Please stop it," Dotcom tweeted.
