Or did they? ARS Technica suggests that a large number of the accounts don’t have anything to do with ISIS…
“A group associated with the Anonymous hacktivist movement launched what they claimed was a “total war” against the Islamic State … encouraging people to join in an effort allegedly targeting social media accounts associated with the terror organization in response to the attacks in Paris a week ago.
“Multiple “ops” have been launched in an attempt to crowdsource efforts to disrupt ISIS social media and even hack its members.
“But there has also been a rash of accusations between those associated with different operations, and it’s not clear that any of them are achieving anything other than drawing attention to Anonymous again.”
