HACKED: Anonymous Keeps Its Word and Pwns Westboro Baptist Church
As I reported yesterday, the hacker consortium known as Anonymous has targeted the members of Westboro Baptist Church. The church announced, after the tragic events of 12/14/2012, it would be picketing the funerals of the victims. Anonymous, along with the rest of the world, took this a bit personal and announced it would be lashing back. It began with a release of personal information on Westboro Baptist Church members and leaders. Most recently they decided to hack the church's spokesperson's Twitter account and the resulting Tweets have provided an insight into how the "hacktivist" organization may have found some redemption.
Check out the "tweets" from @DearShirley - the account hacked by Anonymous.
