Anonymous Fights, Spams Pro-ISIS Twitter Users With Japanese Anime

9

The online hacktivist group Anonymous has found a unique way to dilute Islamic State’s online propaganda and dismantle the terrorist group’s presence on social media by making fun of the militants with a Japanese Moe character – the ‘hackers’ have turned the image of the Islamic State from a terrifying rebel group into a harmless teenage girl. Anonymous is asking users to share ISIS-chan on social media to influence Google search results for Islamic state, ISIS, ISIL or Daesh and de-fang the terror outfit.

Twitter accounts belonging to users spreading pro-Islamic State ideology and hate messages are being flooded and spammed by images of ISIS-chan, a 19-year-old girl clad in a modified burqa. Instead of committing violence, she uses her knife to cut up melons, her favorite food.  

The list of more than 750 Twitter accounts that Anonymous has taken action against was published on the Pastebin website. Top of the list were accounts that had more than 10,000 followers, it said, but many others with smaller numbers of readers were also targeted. Many Twitter accounts have been suspended or shut down as a result of the group’s actions.

  1. I feel that this further stop the current support for Isis I do also believe it could enrage the radicals and cause retaliation and innocent causalities

    • Nick, ISIS will retaliate/kill innocence REGARDLESS of what is being done. This is why the actions of Anonymous and other are so important to counter their influence of supposed glory. They will kill innocents no matter what. The only way they will be stopped is if the global community takes action. AS Anons world wide are starting to do. This is a good start. be deamning their “Cool” factor that sucks in those that feel they dont fit in to their local society. This is a perfect alternative to that…

  2. Awesome! Nice job Anonymous! Creating an anime isis character to dilloute the isis internet dominion! The first step in tearing ISIS apart!
