Dubious line lacking sources

On the 2022 section the line that goes: "Anonymous also hacked into Russian propaganda channels and played Ukrainian music through them. After that they started showing what is really happening in Ukraine." Lacks source and it is clearly not inpartial. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brujua (talkcontribs) 23:08, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

True, it should be "the events in Ukraine" or something. Dawsongfg (talk) 04:15, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

#OpIran Operation Iran

The Iranian protest is mentioned as a small paragraph in the Operation Russia subsection of the History section which is unfair to it. #OpIran is a legitimate operation on its own crucial for the Iranian protesters now.

Anonymous Operations Twitter is the first place I was informed of Operation Iran. I followed that channel for Operation Russia until they suddenly initiated Operation Iran aside Operation Russia. I don't know where they get their information from, but I think they're really close to the Anonymous hackers busy with the cyberwar against the Iranian (Islamic Republican) government. They play a role in the coordination of the protests where to sabotage strategic locations with Molotov cocktails, where to protests and where to lookout for snipers and other kinds of Iranian police ambushes. They also give information what to do against Iranian IR spyware on Android devices from Google itself.

It's the first place I personally encountered a sort of Twitter leaflet campaign (not a bot/bumping/spamming campaign, describing it that way is not really appreciated) of Mahsah Amini and other victims, martyrs and heroes that later spread across Twitter and the rest of social media. I don't how to define the Iranians hanging out there in the comments. Politically pretty activists asking for help, giving fellow Iranians hints to combat the cops and all kinds of motivational peptalks that remind me of the 1789 French Revolution.

== Anonymous and Brazilian Hacker Bring Down Largest Internet Children's Content Network ==

In February 2023 the hacker group Anonymous teamed up with Brazilian hacker Daniel Ghost and together they took down the largest illegal child content network on the surface of the web. The site operated from an interface similar to a social network, but of course, with no relation to the company. According to the hackers, the action involved removing the illegal site and also exploiting security vulnerabilities that made it possible to delete backups related to the platform. The site was taken down after the hackers involved gained access to the domain used by the criminals. After the takedown the hacker group announced the extinction of the illegal site, as well as the domain used.

History > 2020 section: Replace the word "gibibytes" with "gigabytes" for continuity; both the stated source and the WIRED article used to source that article use "giga" over "gibi". Not worth making an account for a simple typo, but it was bugging the hell out of me. 209.133.34.12 (talk) 17:54, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
