The recruiting efforts of Islamic terror group ISIS was dealt a huge blow this week after the hacktivist collective known as Anonymous hacked into hundreds of ISIS Twitter accounts and email addresses in a major strike called #OpISIS.
In a statement issued by Anonymous, the group which describes itself as "Muslims, Christians, Jews …" and said they "come from all races, countries, religions, and ethnicity" declared that ISIS militants are not Muslims.
"UNITED AS ONE, DIVIDED BY ZERO ... We Are Anonymous. REMEMBER ... THE TERRORISTS THAT ARE CALLING THEMSELVES ISLAMIC STATE, (ISIS), ARE NOT MUSLIMS!!!" noted the statement.
"ISIS; We will hunt you, Take down your sites, Accounts, Emails, and expose you. ... From now on, no safe place for you online. ... You will be treated like a virus, And we are the cure. ... We Own The Internet. ... We are Anonymous, We are Legion, We do not forgive, We do not forget, Expect us," continued the statement.
