Operation KKK Is Beginning To Unmask Hate Group Members
http://techcrunch.com/2015/11/01/operation-kkk-is-beginning-to-unmask-hate-group-members/
Posted 11 hours ago by John Biggs (@johnbiggs)
Operation KKK, an Anonymous-led effort to shut down the Ku Klux Klan, has begun in earnest. The main Twitter account is reporting that many KKK-related sites are down after concerted hacking efforts and that more are to come as they prepare for an action called HoodsOff on November 5.
...............
In some parts of the Internet attacks are already happening. A self-styled anti-hate group hacker who calls himself Amped Attacks and has taken down the official website for the Westboro Baptist Church in addition to a number of KKK websites. Most damaging, however, is his claim that he hacked into KKK websites and gathered identifying information for a number of state senators and mayors whose addresses appeared in KKK databases.
