It seems
like Anonymous has taken ISIS response very seriously and the group has started
carrying out their attacks against the terror organisation and declared a “war”
against ISIS
Anonymous
First 'Cyber Attack' on ISIS: Soon after its war declaration,
Anonymous claimed to have taken down more than 5,500 pro-ISIS Twitter
accounts in #OpParis (Operation Paris).
In the past, hackers and organizations associated with Anonymous brought
down websites allegedly connected with ISIS and claimed to have taken down
thousands of ISIS accounts, disrupting their social media recruitment efforts.
What
Is ISIS
ISIS is a terrorist organisation whose most interesting
aspect is how it leverages the huge power of Twitter and Facebook to radicalize
young people, spread its message around the globe, recruit foreign supporters
to its fight and shock people into taking notice of its actions.
Many ISIS militants maintain extremely active accounts on the
popular social media platforms. They also have a strong presence on the most
popular encrypted messaging app Telegram with more than 100,000 followers.
According
to The Atlantic, there were more
than 46,000 ISIS-affiliated Twitter accounts with an average of 1,000 followers
each.
The group
has also established a 24-hour Jihadi Help Desk to help its foot soldiers
spread their message around the world, recruit followers and launch more terror
attacks on foreign soil, NBC reports.
How Can Anonymous Defeat ISIS
When
taking into consideration ISIS's extensive presence on Twitter, taking down its
social media presence is the actual key to defeating the terror group, and it
does make an impact at worst.
So,
taking down the group's 5,500 Twitter accounts could be the first step towards
disrupting ISIS online.
Now that Anonymous has declared cyberwar against
the so-called Islamic State in retaliation for the Paris terrorist attacks, the
question becomes: What can the hacker group actually do?
Taking over and shutting down Twitter accounts
is a logical first step. But the real prize, experts say, is in fundamentally
disrupting the militant group's recruiting mechanism. ISIS pitches its radical
Islamist message through e-mail, Web chat, Skype calls and YouTube videos, and
more recently it promoted a mobile messaging app called Telegram.
An Anonymous spokesman in a trademark Guy Fawkes
mask said in a still unverified YouTube clip that the group "will launch
the biggest ever operation" against ISIS, according to transcripts of the
French video.
Anonymous, a 12-year-old virtual community that's
been linked to hacks on everything from the government of Zimbabwe and Bay Area
Rapid Transit to Visa, MasterCard and the Federal Reserve, has
proven plenty capable of following through with its threats.
One approach Anonymous could take is to shut down
online accounts and thus undermine ISIS' recruiting tools. Another is to
embarrass ISIS by publishing evidence of the hypocrisy among its leaders, said
Jonathan Sander, vice president of product strategy at cyber security company
Lieberman Software. Let’s wait and see what happens next

The bot has been modified to report account IDs rather than usernames.
This allows the retainment of users who change their usernames often.
Make sure that your connection is protected, preferably using a VPN.
This tutorial will NOT work on Mac OS X due to incompatibility.
Instructions:
1. Create an anonymous twitter account (unrelated to your identity).
2. Download the Twitter Reporter (save as TR5.py) and the Primary Targets as raw text, and place both on your Desktop. Windows users should also download Python. Link at the top.
3. Install the Splinter module. Link can be found above (supports Python 2.5 — 2.7 only).
4. Open Terminal (or CMD on Windows) and type (without quotes) "cd Desktop"
5. Type the following command and replace TWITTER with your own anonymous twitter username.
"python TR5.py -u TWITTER -i 5K.txt"
6. Enter your anonymous twitter credentials.
Searcher Guide: It shows how people can help anonymous find more ISIS websites/pages and other ISIS related information.
This Is from Searcher Guide
This is an instructable on using the correct search terms to find ISIS-related links. If you follow it correctly and verify that the sites you have found are related to ISIS, please submit them, thx!
1. Get Python at https://www.python.org/downloads/ unless you already have it (Mac does)
2. Open Terminal (or Command Prompt for Windows) and type (without quotes) "python"
3. Now, this step requires a little explanation. Let's set this out neatly, shall we...
· Copy the contents of the following link to your clipboard https://ghostbin.com/paste/oo4tb
• The contents of that link are some search terms that relate to ISIS and their content, following you to narrow down the results to specific ones.
• Paste the strings into the Terminal and press Enter
4. Choose a couple of strings (3 recommended) from the list of strings. For this example we will use strings 3+38+46
5. Once chosen, continue in terminal (without quotes) "print(str3+str38+str42)" and copy the results
6. Paste the results in https://www.google.iq and analyze the new results
To translate pages, it is recommended to use Google Chrome, which has integrated translation
7. Submit any valid ones to one of the channel operators and we will deal with the info accordingly
