TPP signed: the ‘biggest global threat to the internet’ agreed, as campaigners warn that secret pact could bring huge new restrictions to the internet

quote:

One particularly controversial part of the provisions make it a crime to reveal corporate wrongdoing "through a computer system". Experts have pointed out that the wording is very vague, and could lead to whistleblowers being penalised for sharing important information, and lead to journalists stopping reporting on them.

As well as imposing strict rules on those on the internet, activists point out that some of the parts of the agreement could limit central parts of the internet and modern computers. A restriction on breaking “digital locks” for instance — which is meant to allow companies to control their products even after they have been bought by customers — could stop disabled people from making important changes to their computers or using different technology.

Anonymous cited in Web outages at two Japan airports

quote:

NAGOYA – A tweet purporting to be from Anonymous, a diffuse international collective of online hacker activists, warned of cyberattacks on the websites of two major airports earlier this month, police sources said Saturday. A day later, the web pages of Narita and Chubu airports were struck down.

On Oct. 10, the website of Narita International Airport went down for about eight hours from around 2:30 a.m. after being overwhelmed by multiple-source traffic.

The website of Chubu Centrair International Airport also became difficult to access for 8½ hours.

Flights at the airports were unaffected.

According to investigative sources from the Chiba and Aichi prefectural police, the Twitter post on Oct. 9 said attacks would be made on two major Japanese airports.

It gave the addresses of Narita and Chubu airports.

The sources said the websites of the two facilities apparently suffered “distributed denial of service” or DDoS attacks, which are intended to paralyze a targeted website by overwhelming it with high levels of traffic sent from multiple network sources.

The website of the town of Taiji in Wakayama Prefecture experienced a similar cyberattack in September, which police suspect was made by Anonymous in protest of the town’s longtime practice of hunting of dolphins whereby the mammals are killed or captured after being herded into a cove. The slaughter has become a cause celebre for animal rights activists and others.

#OpSingleGateway

Greetings citizens of the world, we are anonymous.

Government of the Kingdom of Thailand, it has come to our attention that you have decided to disregard your citizens, the people of this country, and have persisted to project an unique Gateway to the Internet, in running a system which only benefits yourselves and the giant corporate bodies operating.

We saw the situation in Thailand for the past months going too far, restricting basic access to freedom of speech, protests and basic human rights against anyone who criticized the Thai Junta.

The latest project of the Thai military government is to deploy a single gateway in order to control, intercept and arrest any persons not willing to follow the Junta orders and your so called moral.

No interception systems ever stopped any terrorist attacks, neither any national security threats in Asia or any western countries. It only allows greedy governments and large corporations to get more profits and less freedom of speech for the people of this country.

The land of smile will soon be similar to China, North Korea or any tyranic country providing intrusive electronic systems to spy and prosecute their own citizens having different ways of thinking.

It is unacceptable that you promote your own people, army executives at the Head of the largest Telecommunication operator: CAT Telecom. Any Corporations or individuals helping to deploy this single gateway will be targeted by any electronic means.

We will not only fight against the single gateway project but will expose your incompetence to the world, where depravity and personal interests prevail.

More than 6,000 people died and 10,000 injured in south of Thailand you have no budget to end this daily terrorist genocide killing innocents, but find 15 million USD budget to censor your own citizens. Our Thai brothers will understand what ความไม่สงบในชายแดนภาคใต้ของประเทศไทย means.

Together we stand against the injustice of your Government, tomorrow you will pay the price of your oppression against your own people.

You can arrest us, but you can't arrest an idea.

We are anonymous.
We are Legion.
United as ONE.
Divided by zero.
We do not forgive Censorship.
We do not forget Oppression.
Expect us.

Anonymous wil duizend KKK-leden ontmaskeren

Anonymous wil de namen op 24 november publiceren, precies een jaar na onrust in Ferguson. Toen de overwegend zwarte bevolking van de stad in opstand kwam tegen de politie na de dood van Michael Brown, dreigde de KKK met geweld tegen demonstranten.

Anonymous reageerde hierop door het belangrijkste twitteraccount van de KKK over te nemen. Het was het begin van de anti-klanoperatie Operation KKK, ofwel #OpKKK, van het hackerscollectief. Anonymous maakte al eerder enkele namen bekend van KKK-leden en voerde DDoS-aanvallen uit op sites van de KKK.

Anonymous Begins Publishing Ku Klux Klan Member Details Online

quote:

Hacktivist group Anonymous has begun publishing the personal details of members of the Ku Klux Klan as its campaign of cyberwar against the white supremacist group escalates.

Anonymous, the amorphous online activist collective, last week promised to reveal the identity of 1,000 members of the KKK after coming into possession of the private information through a compromised Twitter account associated with the group.

The details published on Sunday and Monday are only a small portion of the total information, and include email addresses and phone numbers which the hacktivist group claims belong to members of the KKK. Anonymous hackers have so far published four separate listings on text-sharing website Pastebin, including 57 phone numbers and 23 email addresses.

There has been no verification of the details so far, but Anonymous has vowed to reveal the full identities of up to 1,000 members of the KKK Thursday, Nov. 5 to coincide with the group’s global protest movement, called the Million Mask March. International Business Times has attempted to call several of the numbers on the list, but none have connected so far.

Some official KKK Twitter accounts have reacted angrily to publication of members’ details, with one suggesting the white supremacist group carry out its own rally on Nov. 5 alongside Anonymous' Million Mask March.

Thousands of extra officers and tough public order restrictions to be deployed amid fears of repeat of violence on Bonfire night protest

Scotland Yard is to deploy thousands of extra police officers and impose tough public order restrictions over fears that a Bonfire night protest in London against austerity and increased state surveillance will turn violent.

The Million Mask march planned for Thursday night is part of a global protest movement organised by the internet activist group Anonymous.

In what has become an annual event, police fear a repeat of the unrest that occurred at last year’s demonstration, when scuffles broke out between riot police and protesters – many wearing Guy Fawkes masks.

The Metropolitan police believes protesters plan to damage public monuments, attack police officers and try to occupy buildings. The owners of buildings identified as possible targets have been briefed by the police.

Ch Supt Pippa Mills said: “Over the last few years this event has seen high levels of antisocial behaviour, crime and disorder.” She cited harassment of commuters, including buses being rocked and protesters jumping on car bonnets.

Mills added: “This year we have strong reason to believe that peaceful protest is the last thing on the minds of many of the people who will come along.”

A statement from the Met said a “significant policing operation” would be in place for the protest, including “dedicated teams of highly flexible officers on standby at key locations in capital”.

Restrictions under the Public Order Act will also be imposed to confine the demonstration to Whitehall, Trafalgar Square and Parliament Square, and ban any protest after 9pm.

Thursday’s demonstration is expected to focus on proposals to increase powers of the security services. It will come a day after the government is due to publish legislation seen as a revived snooper’s charter. Under the plans, internet companies will be required to store details of every website visited by their customers for 12 months.

The organisers of the demonstration have urged supporters to descend on London in response to the “abuses and malpractice” of the government and the “profit and greed of the few”.

In a Facebook posting, they urged followers to gather at Trafalgar Square from 6pm. It said: “We have seen the abuses and malpractice of this government, and governments before it, we have seen the encroaching destruction of many civil liberties we hold dear, we have seen the pushes to make the internet yet another part of the surveillance state, we have seen the government’s disregard for migrants, for the poor, the elderly and the disabled, we have seen the capital, profit and greed of the few put before the well-being of the many and we say enough is enough.”

Anonymous Announces Payback for ISIS Paris Attacks

It didn't take long for Anonymous members to rally and swear payback for the recent ISIS terror attacks that took place in Paris, France, on Friday, November 13, 2015.

Having run #OpISIS back at the beginning of the year, after the Charlie Hebdo massacre in January, various smaller branches of the Anonymous hacktivism group are now vowing to retake arms against their old foe.

In its previous campaign, the hackers tracked, hacked, unmasked, and reported thousands of Twitter accounts that were run or associated with the Islamic State's members.

Expect the same thing to happen again, especially since ISIS doesn't have any other kind of online presence that Anonymous can attack outside their Twitter accounts.

Yesterday, Belgium's Internal Affairs Minister said that ISIS members might have used the built-in PlayStation 4 chat system to coordinate attacks. If this information is confirmed by French investigators, expect the group to take aim at Sony's service in the coming months.

Anonymous has a long history of championing social causes, taking aim at Ku Klux Klan members, Monsanto's GMO business, and multiple oppressive regimes.

Here are two videos put out by Anonymous' Italian and French branches. Below them, there's also the group's statement. You can track the current campaign on Twitter using the #OpParis hashtag.

'Anonymous' claimt hacken IJslandse sites om walvisjacht

Activisten van het hackerscollectief Anonymous hebben de verantwoordelijkheid geclaimd voor het neerhalen van vijf overheidswebsites in IJsland. De cyberaanval werd uitgevoerd uit protest tegen de walvisjacht door dit land.

De sites, waaronder de officiële website van de premier en van de ministeries van Milieu en Binnenlandse Zaken, gingen vrijdag plat en bleven tot zaterdagmiddag offline. De regering heeft geen commentaar gegeven op storing.

In een video gepost op sociale media, riepen de activisten iedereen op om websites die zijn gelinkt aan IJsland te hacken uit protest tegen de aanhoudende commerciële jacht op walvissen, ondanks een internationaal moratorium.

IJsland is lid van de Internationale Walvisvaart Commissie (IWC), een intergouvernementeel orgaan dat commerciële walsvisvangst sinds 1986 verbiedt. Maar zowel IJsland als Noorwegen blijft op walvissen jagen.

Japan Investigating Hacking Attack on Shinzo Abe’s Website

quote:

TOKYO — The Japanese authorities said they were investigating whether the hacking group Anonymous was behind a computer attack that shut down Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s personal website on Thursday.

A person claiming to be part of the group of activist hackers claimed responsibility for disrupting access to the site, saying in a message posted on Twitter that the attack was carried out in retaliation for Japan’s resumption of whale hunting in the Antarctic.

Hackers linked to Anonymous have targeted websites related to whale and dolphin hunting before. The group claimed responsibility last month for the shutdown of several government sites in Iceland, another nation that practices whaling.

Two Japanese whaling ships departed for the Antarctic last week, drawing condemnation from anti-whaling groups as well as governments that oppose the practice, including those of Australia, New Zealand and the United States.
