This week, I did an article about the “hacktivist” group, Anonymous, declaring “war” on Donald Trump. They have threatened to do some Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on all of Trump’s websites on April 1. Today, I have a follow-up on that story; Anonymous has released Trump’s very private personal information.
Anonymous talks in the video about going after the bigoted candidate using the hashtags #OpTrump and #OpWhiteRose. The White Rose refers to a resistance group formed during World War II to go against the Nazis. They released a lot of anti-Nazi literature during the war.
Now, Anonymous has mentioned Trump’s condoning of killing terrorists’ families even though they are innocent. The hacktivists are also called out Trump’s statements regarding the requirement of Muslims to wear ID badges, which is similar to what Hitler required of Jewish people. Here is a list of other groups Trump has angered with his hateful rhetoric.
Trump’s face with a Hitler mustache can be seen in the introduction to Anonymous’ video below. This video is announcing that Trump’s personal information has been released and they are inviting people to form their own White Rose societies. The data dump, also known as doxxing, includes his Social Security number, birth date , birth place, contact info for his agent and lawyer, contact information for his parents and children, and others.
Anonymous said:
“The time has come for a movement morally strong enough to do battle against the forces of evil, bigotry and fascism that have come to the forefront at this election cycle”
They said the information was a gift, and that they want to use it to stop Trump’s “Fourth Reich.” According to NBC News, Trump’s information has been floating around on-line since 2013 though, so this may be a re-release of his information.
