Anonymous is actively working to celebrate 'traditional day'
Earlier, at the end of the week, NBC's homepage has also been visited by hackers and changed the content. Although a group of hackers violating the attack claimed themselves to be members of Anonymous, the Anonymous hacker group later denied any involvement in the attack.
This latest series of disruptive activities by Anonymous is considered a part of the 'alarm on November 5' launched by Anonymous globally. The hacker group even called for a public demonstration in front of the British Parliament Building on 8 November at 5 pm (local time).
On November 5 every year considered 'traditional day' of hacker group Anonymous, is on 'Guy Fawkes day', is the anniversary of Guy Fawkes' assassination of King James I in the year 1605 and was arrested. while carrying out the assassination.
This day is often celebrated in the UK, however, with Anonymous using the image of Guy Fawkes as his main symbol, November 5 also became the 'traditional day' of this notorious hacker group. The image of Guy Fawkes mask also symbolizes opposition, the behavior that Anonymous hackers are targeting.
On November 5 last year, many information confirmed that Anonymous would knock down the social network Facebook to celebrate the 'traditional day' , but then Anonymous confirmed that information was just 'tin duck'. This year, once again, rumors that Anonymous will crack Facebook on November 5, but this group has said it is still fake information and the group does not intend to perform attacks on Facebook.
