Anonymous, the group of online hactivists, has joined in the war on terror and has launched cyber attacks against ISIS.

Breitbart reported that Anonymous declared war against ISIS over the weekend in response to the terrorist attacks in Paris.

The group claimed that they had been tracking down the Twitter accounts of ISIS supporters, compiling them into a document and reporting them in order to suspend their accounts. According to Anonymous they said they have reported 5,500 accounts.

This is a huge blow to the terrorist group which uses social media to communicate and broadcast their propaganda.

Twitter which has suspended conservatives in the past when feminists and #BlackLivesMatter activists complained has not done the same due diligence at policing accounts that promotes terrorism.
