Hacker group Anonymous declares war on ISIS

By Lee Han-soo

Hacker group Anonymous has announced that it will increase its cyber attacks against ISIS in the wake of the terrorist bombings in Brussels, Belgium.

A video released by Anonymous states that the group will increase its attacks on the terrorist organization’s Internet presence in an operation named “Op Brussels.”

The computer-toned voice vowed to continue hacking ISIS websites, shut down its Twitter accounts and steal its Bitcoins.

“We have silenced thousands of Twitter accounts directly linked to ISIS. We severely punish Daesh on the dark net, hacking its electronic portfolio and stealing money from the terrorists,” said the Anonymous member.

“We will strike back against them; we will defend the rights of freedom and tolerance.”

The Anonymous member also called on the people of Europe to stop discriminating against Muslims, saying this would hinder the terrorists’ recruiting policy.
