Read our privacy policy Anonymous, the hacker collective known for Guy Fawkes masks and controversial activism, declared war on Isis, following the attacks on Paris on 13 November. HOUSH: Everyone loves to say “hacking,” but what Anonymous is doing is just tons of research, identifying and monitoring everything out there that ISIS might use to communicate and recruit, and trying to get those channels shut down, be it Twitter accounts, Facebook pages, telegram channels. And the best part about it is ISIS is trying to have a good social presence and trying to recruit, so it’s not like they’re hiding. THE FIX: If you report ISIS accounts, and social media companies shut them down, won’t they just open others?
