'Operation ISIS': Anonymous Invites Others to Mock the Terrorist Group, Will The Hacktivists Request Encourage Bullying Towards the Entire Muslim Community?
The hacker group, Anonymous, continues its battle against ISIS, declaring Dec. 11 as a "Trolling Day" for the extremist militant group. The hacktivists are asking for the public's help to slam down every member of the jihadists using social media.
According to Digital Trends, this coming Friday is the day that Islamic State "will never forget." The online activists want everyone to join in to take down the terrorists, which they declared on Ghostbin, a paste service site.
The advocacy is one way the hacktivists continue their persistent fight against ISIS, which intensified when ISIS said they were the ones responsible for the terror attacks in Paris last month.
"We ask you to show your support and help against ISIS by joining us and trolling them // do not think you have to be part of Anonymous, anyone can do this and does not require special skills. We ask you to take part of this on Facebook // Twitter // Instagram // Youtube //In the "Real World," Anonymous wrote on the said site.
Digital Trends added that Anonymous wants everyone to take part, assuring everyone that they don't need to be technically knowledgeable. The group simply wants to annoy the Islamic extremists online.
It will take place on social media's giant platforms, like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube as Anonymous indicated in their post. They, too, are planning to form a protest in various places all over the world.
The group also asserted that their move is to show ISIS that more people are against them than those who support them. This, too, is for them to see that the public is not afraid of their militant acts and will not be hiding in fear.
To recall, CNBC added that Anonymous proclaimed their war against ISIS after the terrorist attack in Paris, which killed 130 people. Anonymous threatened the militant group in return, saying that they will fight them with "massive cyber attacks."
ISIS, on the other hand, called the hacktivists a bunch of "idiots." However, the group still warned every member via telegram messaging about Anonymous, and how to avoid being hacked.
Meanwhile, Anonymous asks those who will participate in the movement to post pictures that humiliate the militant group and to tag every known account held by ISIS members. They gave a "goat" as an example of what images to post and captioned it with a tag involving Jihadists' wives. They also ask everyone to use the hashtags #Daesh and #Daeshbags so that the movement gets trending on Twitter.
