Hacker Group Anonymous Strikes First Blow Against ISIS

[Wilikon]

 Over the weekend, hacktivist group Anonymous made true on their promise and began their cyber war on ISIS.

The hackers claim in a video posted Friday that they had taken dozens of accounts on Twitter and Facebook, all of which were used as a recruiting platform for ISIS to gain more numbers in their organization.

But before they made the claim, Anonymous prefaced with an explanation of who exactly is fighting against the terrorist organization in what they call “Operation ISIS.”

They explain that the ones fighting the cyber war are “young, or old, gay or straight… from all races, countries, religions, and ethnicity. United as one, divided by zero.”

At the end of the video, Anonymous leaves one of their threats aimed at ISIS, telling them there is no safe place to hide.

“We will hunt you, take down your sites, accounts, emails, and expose you…

From now on, no safe place for you online…

You will be treated like a virus, and we are the cure…

We own the internet…

We are Anonymous; we are Legion; we do not forgive, we do not forget, Expect us.”

ISIS must be terrified

Im pretty sure they aren't, but this is surely annoying for them. One of the main reasons ISIS got huge is due to their internet propaganda. If Anon can ruin that then its fantastic.

I don't support ISIS, but the thing is, I think they have better hackers than Anon's "Secs".

This could have been done by any government by putting a request to Facebook /Twitter.
I hope Anonymous didn't screw up any monitoring plan by the government.

hahah its pretty possible if not certain that it was used for gathering inteligence, and altho its nice to see annon is fighting on the right side,
it seams futile to fight ISIS online, looks more like a two troll fight rather than anything effective.

[tinfoil hat on]
You have to wonder how all those billions of $$$ spent on massive projects like in utah or satellites with a cartoony octopus as an emblem are working against isis. It is embarrassing to imagine the frustration all those paid civil servant hackers have to go through with so much micro management of that war behind their ears...

Its nice to hear that hacktivist group Anonymous has finally chosen ISIS as a target. May they become successful on their fight on bringing ISIS down on the internet.

Facebook won't let people post pictures of Mohammed, but permits ISIS accounts? What the actual fuck is going on in this world?

*Me, Goes on facebook and posts 50 pics, and instantly starts getting threats from angry fucks who want to kill me now because I did something bad to their religion..

Its fucking crazy.
If you post anything that should be saying that ISIS is muslim on a social media, then you get threats.
And you have muslims who all of a sudden draw the racism card.
That you are racist because you have something against someones religion.

If I meet a person who says that he supports ISIS, ill have him arrested, or ill beat the shit out of him myself.

Fuck ISIS.

One group of delusional asshats hopped up on their holy self-righteousness and spreading the doctrine of their own infallibility, fighting a terrorist group of exactly the same. The irony is rich!

An anonymous Internet poster claiming recruiting sites of cold blooded killers is "exactly the same" as an Anonymous group retaliating for said murders, and finding it just a joke.

It's funny but they get nowhere here in China (yet the US built most of the Global Chinese Firewall for them).
