The Guy Fawkes mask-wearing 2010s hacktivist group that trolled the Obama administration is back. They say they are targeting Russia.
Russia Today, a state sponsored news website, was taken down by several accounts associated with the group. The news agency confirmed that it had been the target of a strong cyberattack.
The hacks are a part of a cyber war that Anonymous declared against Moscow.
The group wrote on their main account that they are targeting the Russian government. The private sector will most likely be affected as well.
They say that they only want peace in the region and a future for all humanity, while people around the globe smash your internet providers to bits.
In the past, the group has made a lot of threats that turned out to be nothing more than chest thumping. They threatened Musk last year, but it didn't result in anything.
If Anonymous was behind the recent hacks, it looks like they might have disrupted Putin's schemes, which is cool. It's nice to know that even people sitting at home on their computers can do their part to fight an imperialist invasion.
Hacktivism is trying to prevent war by disrupting the railway used by the Russian military.
