Apparently Anonymous has been unable to hack into ISIS online newspaper - Dābiq Magazine

Apparently, the terrorists have hackers too who are just as good as Anonymous.

Apparently there are people kvetching on social media but doing nothing but acting like "Monday morning quarterbacks."

Exactly. They've boasted this before...after they hacked government sites in places. What exactly do they think they are going to do now that ISIS has gone off the grid for their latest attack?

---

Maybe they do not feel it necessary for you to be made aware of what they do?

---

If that were the case, they wouldn't be announcing it all to the media as if they were going to save the world single handedly. They announced this a long time ago, and there doesn't seem to be much progress on their front. Authorities believe ISIS is now off the grid with this latest attack which hacking will not reach at all.

Yes I wrote above they came out with this a long time ago and again we don't know for sure if this has hindered ISIS since they will not say. Plus you  have to keep in mind. Anonymous is a fractured group with a lot of different fronts and people bundled under the same name. So the people who spoke recently may not be working with those who spoke up inthe past against ISIS.

My big question is WHO exactly ARE these people??? Does anyone actually know?

To sign up for Twitter, you have to have an email address, among other things. I would be surprised if that couldn't be traced.

Supposedly no one knows who they are, except each other.

Word has been out for some time that our government has learned a lot from Annon about terrorist plans for some time. 

Some of ISIS is American or Euro trained, but I suspect they are not as techno as our guys, they don't have the same systems where they hide as our people do, and are probably not as widespread..

There are web based email sites where the email address cannot be traced.  Some of the email addys are dumped/deleted after a certain time.

  I use them for spam filters, signing up on websites, online cyber so called friends, etc.

This past year my husbands and daughters bank accounts were hacked - they were notified after it happened by the bank itself.  The "funny" thing is , it happened during the time major banks had been hit in Eastern Europe by a hacker group and millions was stolen.  

Can you imagine if those thieves offered up their assistance to let's say, Russia, in the war against ISIS, what good things could be accomplished?

Supporters of the Islamist militant organization ISIS have responded to the threat of a hacking campaign by the loosely knit online collective Anonymous by issuing a set of basic measures to protect against hacking.

The rules were sent over the encrypted chat app Telegram on the "Khilafah News" channel this week. They were discovered by the International Centre for the Study of Radicalization, a London-based think tank focused on terrorism.

"O' brothers of tawheed," the message starts (tawheed in Islam refers to the oneness of God), "The #Anonymous hackers threatened in new video release that they will carry out a major hack operation on the Islamic State (idiots)... So U should follow the instructions below to avoid being hacked." The message then lists several anti-hacking recommendations, which read like elementary cybersecurity practices.
