“The Jester,” a vigilante grey-hat hacker broke the news of the incident on Twitter by posting a link to a recording of the broadcast. “A god among us has hijacked 6400kHz (North Korean station) and is playing the Final Countdown,” said The Jester on Twitter on November 9.
— J?S??R ? ?C?U?L³³º¹ (@th3j35t3r) November 9, 2017 “The Jester” is famous for hacking jihadist websites, and in October 2016 had defaced the website of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the message, “Stop attacking Americans.” Strategic Sentinel, a Washington-based nonpartisan geostrategic consulting company, noted that the Korean communist regime often broadcasts coded messages on the station before provocations. It had stated on Twitter on 23rd September: “Radio Pyongyang has broadcasted coded messages on 6400kHz. Usually, when they do this it signals an upcoming provocation.”
