11:51 Anonymous leaders may soon be arrested | |
The international investigation that is conducted "based on" past actions of members of Anonymous, it seems, is nearing its logical conclusion. In any case, investigators who are investigating the activities of the group claim that has already entered the next leader of the group. In general, reminding of what the group Anonymous, and why it took up arms against the legislators, there is no need. Information can be found here, here and here. In the meantime, let's see, what has made the investigation and the investigation assistants. So, investigators believe that the group includes several hundred members, of whom only 30 are active enough. In addition, 10 people from the 30 "are the coordinators of the group, taking a majority decision." About two leaders of the group managed to gather enough information to understand that one of them is called Owen, and he lives in New York. The name of the second member of the group so far unknown, but investigators already know that he uses the nickname Q or James Bond. It seems that now the Q looks for replacement filled members of the group, intending to appoint other executives. This was reported by Aaron Burr, an employee of the company HBGary Federal, conducting his own investigation. Q, and other key figures live in California, and the hierarchy of the group is no longer a secret to the investigation. Several other senior members of the group Anonymous are living in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy and Australia. Now, investigators are working to determine the identity of the majority of active members of the group, participating in communion members in the channels of IRC, use Anonymous, as well as dealing with some members of the group on Facebook. It is interesting that some members of Anonymous communicate with the web, using their real names. It should be noted that HBGary Federal - a private company dealing with computer security. Although that helps HBGary Federal investigators, the CEO reports that HBGary not going to give the investigators until the data obtained in the course of private investigation (in part because the methods used by employees HBGary, and not entirely legal). However, experts believe that the leaders of the groups most likely to be arrested at an early date, and all they face imprisonment of up to 10 years. Themselves as members of the group believe that the more people will use "ion cannon and other software for DDoD-attacks, only a fraction of the participants in such attacks is somehow punished.
