Islamic State HITS BACK at Anonymous in chilling threat to hacker group
Jack Fenwick
ISIS has ht back at Anonymous
In a message on an encrypted chat app, the depraved terror group encouraged supporters to update their profile pictures with the image of a black shoe print on the French flag.
The sickening message was followed by a chilling threat, written only in Arabic, promising to strike back at the masked computer association.
The hacking group had taken responsibility for deleting 5,500 ISIS-linked Twitter accounts
It comes after the infamous cyber gang claimed responsibility for deleting more than 5,500 Twitter account linked to the abhorrent extremists.
Rachel Bryson, from the anti-extremist think tank Quilliam, warned that a retaliation from ISIS should be expected.
The researcher said the message “states that there will be something coming and that we should stay tuned and watch out”.
She added: “I don’t know if it is literally declaring virtual war on Anonymous, but it is promising a response… They are definitely trying to taunt Anonymous with this.
“Writing a post is easy, it’s doing a strong response that will be the thing to watch for.”
Anonymous was already shaken after pro-ISIS social media accounts referred to members of the activist group as “idiots” and shared instructions on how to avoid being hacked by the collective.
They had previously threatened to wipe ISIS off the internet in their "biggest operation ever".
ISIS have become highly skilled in their use of social media as a key driver ground for recruitment and propaganda.
The savage jihadi militants are now desperately rushing to protect a key propaganda operation from the hackers.
