Hvem, hvad Anonymous?!
Måske nok verdens mest omspændte hackergruppe, som dækker internationale medlemmer. Det er uvist i hvor stort et omfang gruppen hærger over, men helt sikkert det meste af verdenen. Gruppen fungerer efter signe meget efter hierarki (rangorden). Man kan sammenligne rangordnen med rangorden indenfor terrorist grupper.
Gruppens eksistens er lidt svær at vide, hvornår og hvornår den er opstået. Men kilder har foregivet at gruppen startede omkring 2003, hvor gruppen blev kendt for deres meget spektakulære måde at optræde offentligt.
Hackergruppen optræder på de sociale medier facebook, twitter og YouTube, hvor de med mellemrum opdaterer folk/medierne omkring deres viderefærden efter hackerangreb.
Nedenstående klip, viser gruppens trussel video, hvor de truer angreb mod facebook.
Lyden kan virke ret dårlig, men her er underteksterne på klippet:
"Attention citizens of the world, we are anonymous. We wish to get your attention hoping you heed the warnings as follows. Your medium of communication you all so dearly adore will be destroyed. If you're a willing activist or a guy who just wants to protect the freedom of information then join the cause and kill Facebook for the sake of your own privacy. Facebook has been selling information to government agencies and giving clandestine access to information security firms so they can spy on people from all around the world.
Some of these so called white audience those experiments are working for a former cherian governments such as those of the gypped and Syria everything you do on Facebook stays on Facebook regardless of your privacy settings and deleting your account is impossible even if you delete your accounts all your personal info stays on Facebook and can be recovered at anytime changing the privacy settings to you'll make your Facebook account more privates is also a delusion Facebook knows more about you that your family you cannot hide from the reality in which you the people of the INTERNET live in Facebook is the opposite of the edges etc calls you were not safe from them nor from any governments one day you will look back on the case and realize what we have done here is right. Think for a while and prepare for a day that we all go down in history: November 5th 2011.
We are anonymous, we are legion we do not forgive, we do not forget: expect us"
- Kort sagt, så mener gruppen, at facebook er et led i et stort komplot, hvor alverdens lederer kan få oplysninger omkring folks færden i det daglige. Derfor skulle facebook have været hacket d. 5 november 2011.
Måske har de ret? .. Men det ville ikke give meget mening, at hacke nok verdens største sociale medie, hvor de også selv ligger status opdateringer ud! Hackerangrebet blev dog ikke til noget.
Hacker-gruppens ofre
Hacker gruppen ”Anonymous” stod bag hackerangrebene på Sony ”Playstation 3s’” netværk systemer, deriblandt Sonys online-butik Playstation Store, hvilket var et kæmpe angreb, som gik udover rigtig mange danske såvel som udlandske spillere. Nu frygter man derfor også at turen er kommet til Xbox Live brugerne.
Hackergruppen har også tidligere hacket kreditkor- selskaberne VISA og MasterCard, hvilket det også gjorde det muligt for hackerne at få opgjort kreditkort oplysninger fra alverdens Playstation spillere.
Truer dansk avis
Hackergruppen har ifølge Ekstra Bladet, truet med at angribe Ekstra Bladets’ hjemmeside og mailadresser (dog ikke sket endnu) Hackergruppen havde set sig sure over, at Ekstra Bladet havde bragt artikler om gruppens planer om at angribe danske hjemmesider.
Efter Ekstra Bladet, havde bragt en artikel omkring truslerne fra Anonymous. Da sender Anonymous denne video ud på YouTube.
Undertekster fra klippet:
"As you have probably noticed in the last 48 hours,
Anonymous has set itself new goals.
Many people assume that we want to
attack the Danish school system.
The Danish IT security company CSIS even
claims that we have access to many schools in Germany.
This statement can be read in the newspaper ekstrabladet.dk.
With false statements, they themselves become the target.
No one has said, we want to damage the Danish school system.
No one has said that we have access to the German school system.
The OP Europe is about corruption that exists in every society.
Each country operates in any manner of corruption.
We fight for truth and freedom.
We are Anonymous.
We are legion.
We do not forgive.
We will not forget.
Expect us"
