'The Internet's fascist side' is hacked: Anonymous attacks Proud Boys and QAnon websites. After hacking the web registration company Epik, a major domain server for far-right groups, the hacktivist collective Anonymous published over 150 gigabytes of sensitive data. Following the January 6 Capitol incident, popular far-right sites like Parler, Gab, and 8chan, as well as far-right extremist groups like the Proud Boys and QAnon, transferred to Epik after being banned from other platforms for breaking hate speech and propagating disinformation policies. Last week, Anonymous released a torrent file containing what it described as a "decade's worth" of firm data, including passwords, internal emails, home addresses, and phone numbers. "This is, indeed, the Epik moment we've all been waiting for,", the organization stated in a statement released alongside the data leak, which was originally reported by independent journalist Steven Monacelli. According to the statement, "this dataset is all that is required to trace true ownership and control of the fascist side of the Internet. " "It's time to figure out who in your family was behind an Ivermectin horse porn fetish website, a disinformation publishing operation, or yet another Qanon hellhole". According to extremism experts, the leak is acting as a, "Rosetta Stone for the far right,", allowing them to discover new connections between the groups. "It's enormous. It could be the largest domain-style breach I've ever seen, and it's probably the most fascinating to me as an extremism researcher, "According to Megan Squire, a professor at Elon University who researches right-wing extremism, ", It's an embarrassment of riches," she says emphatically. Epik made global headlines earlier this month when he expressed support for Texas Right to Life, an anti-abortion organization whose website was taken down by GoDaddy because it sought information on women who sought abortions in contravention of Texas' new near-total prohibition. Epik, on the other hand, eventually discontinued dealing with the site because it breached their privacy policies. Epik has been a haven for far-right platforms that have been kicked off big web servers like Amazon Web Services, while it has moved to cut relations with neo-Nazi site Daily Stormer and 8chan in recent years. Rita Katz, executive director of SITE Intelligence Group, which investigates online extremism, told the Post, "The company played such a huge role in keeping far-right terrorist cesspools alive". "Without Epik, many extremist networks — from QAnon and white nationalists to accelerationist neo-Nazis — would have had significantly less air to do harm, whether it was leading up to the Jan. 6 Capitol riots or disseminating misinformation and conspiracy theo ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaQhTElJWCs

15 foreign militants among 62 killed in Kashmir In comparison to the same period last year, the number of militants killed in Kashmir has increased dramatically in the first four months of this year. According to Jammu and Kashmir (J&K;) Police figures, 62 militants have been killed in the Valley since the start of the year, with 37 slain in the first four months of 2021. More importantly, "foreign" militants have been identified as 15 of the 62 people slain this year (from Pakistan). In contrast, no foreign terrorists were murdered in the first four months of 2021; in fact, just 20 foreign militants were slain throughout the year (a total of 168 militants killed in Kashmir in 2021). Apart from intensified operations, the increase was ascribed to better intelligence generation by the Intelligence Bureau, Research and Analysis Wing, and the Jammu and Kashmir Police, according to sources. Sources say it's also a sign of a bigger drive from over the border to stir up problems in the Valley. The recent victory is the product of both good human and technical intelligence, as well as concentrated activities. As a result, terrorists' chances of surviving are becoming increasingly slim. The Sunday Express quoted IG (Kashmir) Vijay Kumar as saying, "Of the 62 terrorists murdered this year, 32 were killed within three months of joining militancy." "This period last year saw India and Pakistan agree to resume truce in February," a senior security establishment officer explained, explaining the lesser number of killings. Pakistan was also under fire from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) at the time, and it didn't want to create headlines for the wrong reasons. Infiltration was affected as a result of this. However, by mid-2021, FATF pressure on Pakistan had eased, even as Islamabad regained geopolitical significance for the west as a result of developments in Afghanistan. This has given Pakistan the opportunity to stir up instability in the Valley once more. Since mid-2021, they've been pushing terrorists into the Valley. Pakistan has also modified tactics, according to sources, by sending in tiny guns smuggled in via drones and utilizing overground employees to assault soft locations. "Without creating large headlines, this keeps the terror stew boiling." "It's particularly difficult to apprehend these people since they're not full-time militants; they have regular jobs and even return their weapons to the handler after finishing a task," a J&K; Police official explained. This year's March and April saw a repeat of October 2021, when many attacks on migrant workers and Kashmiri Pandits occurred in the Valley. While militants shot at seven migrant laborers and a Kashmiri Pandit in the last two months, there has also been an increase in att ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNYat8T2ZoQ
