I Cant Breathe

Anonymous has declared “war” on Isis, in response to the attacks in Paris that left over a hundred people dead.
Members of the online collective have posted a video threatening "cyber attacks" against Isis, which are thought to have directed the attacks. It continues the group’s work against the group, which began following the Charlie Hebdo attacks in January. In a video posted soon after the attacks, a person claiming to represent the group warns members of Islamic State that it intends to hunt them down. It said that it would “unite humanity” in the operation, which it claimed would use hacking to weaken the group. Anonymous vs Isis: Twitter has become a battleground “Anonymous from all over the world will hunt you down,” said the voice in the video, which included footage of the group’s famous Guy Fawkes mask and was in French. “You should know that we will find you and we will not let you go. “We will launch the biggest operation ever against you. “Expect massive cyber attacks. War is declared. Get prepared. “The French people are stronger than you and will come out of this atrocity even stronger.” http://www.independent.co.uk/life-st...-a6735811.html

These are the kind of guys Isis would love to have on their side. They are experts in counter-security. Not random that most of them get paid big bucks to come over to the "legit" side to strengthen network securities.

Does anonymous ever actually get anything other than threatening videos done?

Great, a bunch of faceless, nameless, unregulated cyber-vigilantes have declared war on IS. I feel all warm and safe already.

Also pretty sure that any information will be a one way street. Security services won't be giving them anything.

Oh I agree. But they also have a sense of real pride about discovering exploits / tracing information, and I think that any help they can give will be less about ego, more about the collective good.

More so than between the intelligence services and ISIS though? Whatever peoples opinions of Anonymous, they probably could help a great deal, surely intelligence services will be able to recognise that?

you have a very warped view of the intelligence services and our governments and military then. If you honestly believe that Anonymous is in any way smarter or more clever or advanced than our own government, sorry but that is just stupid to me.

They just wouldn't work with each other, they have completely different ideas of how the threat should be combated and of the role of online communication in today's world. Anon would argue that the intelligence services are far too powerful and unaccountable: the intelligence services would say that Anon put peoples lives in danger and make their work much harder. I really can't see them popping champagne corks at MI6 and GCHQ over this, if anything they'll be rolling their eyes and wishing Anonymous would stay out of it.

Meh. My take on it is that the official powers-that-be have been trying to combat this middle eastern terrorist threat for decades now and have achieved precisely jack ****. Yes, before you start, they have obviously stopped many potential attacks before they happened, I appreciate that, but are we any closer to a solution? An end? No... We're further than ever, it's rising damp that's only getting worse and can only be painted over so many times. So, I say let whoever wants to have a go, have a go at alternative methods. It may not work but that's irrelevant. What western governments and military forces are doing isn't working either . Last edited by Toy Soldier; 17-11-2015 at 11:17 PM. |

Can you actually be that ignorant to the idea that actually the government MIGHT actually have a plan and if they thought taking every ISIS sympathizer off of twitter would help us, they already would have done so by now. Anonymous are angry little fat gamer gate boys. and they are doing NOTHING to make the world a safer place. They are arrogant sociopathic losers.

i doubt anonymous' plan is going to be more effective. but if tomorrow ISIS surrenders and we have world peace because of anonymous' actions, i will congratulate you on being right.

And yes, I am a bit of a nerd, but I actually *do* feel a tiny bit happier now they have shown their solidarity....
