Thread: Anonymous collective declares ‘total war’ on Donald Trump, again

Hackers target ‘deeply disturbing’ presidential candidate and ask for support to dismantle his campaign and expose private details

The hacking collective Anonymous has vowed once again to “dismantle” Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and to “expose what he doesn’t want the public to know”.

The group announced its re-engagement of “OpTrump” through its traditional propaganda video, aiming to take down one of Trump’s property websites for Chicago on 1 April.

Anonymous said: “We have been watching you for a long time and what we’ve seen is deeply disturbing. You don’t stand for anything but your personal greed and power.

“This is a call to arms. Shut down his websites, research and expose what he doesn’t want the public to know. We need you to dismantle his campaign and sabotage his brand.”

Anonymous last declared war on Trump at the end of 2015 in response to Trump’s proposal to ban Muslims from entering the US. At the time the group took down the website of New York’s Trump Tower using a distributed denial of service attack (DDoS) that overwhelms a site’s servers using bogus traffic.

Whether this renewed effort by Anonymous will have a greater impact on Trump and his campaign for the US presidential elections is unclear. But the collective is urging everyone to support their campaign saying “you do not need to know how to hack to support this operation”.

“This is a declaration of total war. OperationTrump engaged.”

Trump has been the target of several hacking groups, allegedly leaking personal information, voicemail messages and attacking his various sites, all of which have had little effect on his popularity.

Wow - another form of terrorism. Anonymous couldn't be more misinformed. Where do they get this deceitful interpretation of Trump? Certainly w/o reason. Perhaps the media's misleading them in their prejudiced reporting & Soros' money fuels the groups. And they choose idiotic clueless Bernie as their savior.

if there will be Donald Trump war on anonymous it will be the last time we'll hear from them

Where is the FBI and why haven't they already shut this hacker down? Oh wait .... they don't want to offend their "Anonymous" buddies over in the CIA?

It's not clear if the number or other personal details are correct

The U.S. Secret Service is investigating claims by hacker activist movement Anonymous that it uncovered personal information about Republican frontrunner Donald Trump.

“The U.S. Secret Service is aware of the Internet postings of Candidate Donald Trump’s personal information,” a spokesperson for the Secret Service confirmed to TIME. “We are working with the Federal Bureau of Investigation in this matter.”

In an animated YouTube video, an Anonymous member denounces Trump, comparing him to Adolf Hitler and saying that he would “promote an agenda of fascism and xenophobia.” The member then says Anonymous has released the Trump’s Social Security number, cell phone number and other personal details.

In the video, Anonymous also announces the beginning of what the group calls Operation White Rose, a nonviolent protest of Trump’s presidential campaign. Members will wear a single white rose to Trump rallies, a symbol of the White Rose Society, an anti-Nazi group known for its activity during Hitler’s regime.

Anonymous is a loosely affiliated group of hackers and Internet users that came to prominence during the Occupy Wall Street protests that began in 2011.
