While Twitter suspends some Anonymous accounts, the collective hacked All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company (VGTRK).
On Friday, Anonymous announced that the affiliate group Black Rabbit World has leaked 28 GB of data stolen from the Central Bank of Russia.
MESSAGE FROM #ANONYMOUS RABBIT:”People shouldn’t be afraid of their government, governments should be afraid of their people.”The Central Bank of Russian Federation leak (28 GB) has been published by Anonymous#Ukraine #OPRussiapic.twitter.com/BJJBMpZESZ— The Black Rabbit World (@Thblckrbbtworld) March 25, 2022The group plans to distribute the stolen documents to various points on the internet to prevent they are censored. Twitter plays a crucial role in the communication of the group, many groups affiliated with the collective use this platform to share news about their operations.
Anonymous claims that the @OpsAn0n account was suspended by Twitter, likely to prevent the spreading of data stolen from the Central Bank of Russia or information related to other attacks conducted by the collective. It seems that the platform also blocked other accounts, but at the time of this writing, there is no official announcement from Twitter.
#Twitter has suspended 4 peaceful resistance #Anonymous accounts in a 24 hour period @OpsAn0n @Technotna @ivyanonymiss001 and @anonymousspart0We the people ask @TwitterSupport @Twitter @TwitterSafety Which Side Are You On? #Ukraine #UkraineWar #Russian #RussiaUkraineWar pic.twitter.com/UEAtafEUJL— PuckArks (@PucksReturn) March 26, 2022Twitter CTO Parag Agrawal recently remarked that it will not allow any post that violates the terms of use of the platform, for example by leaking personal information of individuals.
Our Anonymous brother @OpsAn0n got suspended by @Twitter. @Twitter is beginning to censor #Anonymous accounts and is keeping accounts of those enjoying the lost lives of innocent children, barbarically massacred by Putin’s murderous machine.Enough is Enough! Stop Censorship! pic.twitter.com/70yNgMKnXE— Anonymous TV (@YourAnonTV) March 26, 2022Anyway, data exfiltrated during the Anonymous #OpRussia operation, including the info stolen from the Central Bank of Russia, is available through the leak site DDoSsecrets.
Anonymous NB65 group also claimed to have hacked All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company (VGTRK), which is one of the accused to be a propaganda vector of Putin.
VGTRK is one of the world’s largest media conglomerates, it owns network of federal TV channels (Russia-1, Russia-24, Russia-Planet, Russia-Culture, and so on), radio, and a network of regional branches.
The All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company (VGTRK), propaganda branch of the Russian Federation can fuck themselves. @Telecomix is going to have some fun parsing through this. #datalove @YourAnonNews @ITarmyUA Glory to Ukraine!
