ISIS 9/11 cyber hack threats fail to materialize, but an affiliate with ANONYMOUS took down ISIS websites!

Rumors around the dark Web go that Ghost Sec took out an isis hacker as well today. The group must have had a hack in place. Ghost sec got through the proxy and shut him down plus forwarded information to authorities

The hacker reports that the group, which has links to the broader Anonymous movement, has attained unique insight into the online workings of Islamic State and its growing web of affiliates.

“In the beginning we failed a lot, but now it has become easier, as we now know who they are, we know their methods, we know everything about Islamic State online.”

While foiling terrorist plots represents the cutting edge of Ghost Security’s work, the group’s bread-and-butter is shutting down accounts Islamic State uses to broadcast its atrocities and recruit new followers. As a result of their tip-offs some 59,000 Twitter accounts, 1,300 YouTube propaganda videos, and 130 standalone sites have been disabled.

The hackers’ representative says that rather than endlessly hunting down mirror accounts, the group’s aim is to block Islamic State content before it goes viral. While it has said that the number of ISIS accounts on Twitter has gone down by up to a quarter, eventually, the group hopes to create a virtual blanket filter that will stop the radical Islamists from reaching mainstream platforms altogether.

Seems like an effective way to isolate these douchebags from the outside world ... Great job Islamic clown army!

A lot of talk, but ISIS failed to do any actual hacking and simply recirculated old material.

However, an affiliate with the hacking group ANONYMOUS called GhostSec took down several ISIS websites!

Way to go, ANONYMOUS AND GHOSTSEC!

LINK: Another acclaimed “attack” was actually a list posted on NASA’s own website in 2014. A third effort was alleged to be a leaked list of White House employee information. A volunteer with Ghostsec, an Anonymous affiliate fighting ISIS online, revealed the hack was actually a previously leaked list of House of Representative staffers from 2013.

In the meantime, GhostSec and other Anonymous hacking groups managed to take down several ISIS-connected websites. Some of ISIS’ most prominent forums, including a propaganda website and a video-hosting site, were all taken down on Friday.

So you're saying it didn't rain in Wyoming as forecast but it DID rain in Florida? Is that how these two thing go together?
