Anonymous v. Islamic Cyber Army
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3506345/Anonymous-issues-threat-ISIS-Belgium-terror-attacks.html#comments
... ISIS's online unit, the Islamic Cyber Army, hit back, branding the group 'idiots' and declaring: 'What they gonna hack…all they can do is hacking twitter accounts, emails, etc.'
ISIS militants use a number of encrypted messaging services, email providers, and GPS blockers to communicate under the radar.
The list of apps used by the jihadists was revealed last year after a 34-page ISIS fighter handbook was obtained by independent military research group Combating Terrorism Center (CTC), and published on Scribd by Yahoo.

COMMENT
I thought this was interesting, as I don't know anything about what I like to call the 'Cyber Caliphate' (lol ... I never get sick of giggling at that term, since seeing it somewhere). I guess (from the above name) they don't call themselves that, so I'm not sure where that CC term came from.
For some reason, 'Cyber Caliphate' doesn't sound at all scary. It's sort of funny, unreal and completely detached from real life.
The entire thing is surreal. There's guys out there that must have high-tech know-how (which is a hell of a lot more advanced than I'll ever be), but it's like they're stuck in history and in their traditions from hundreds of years ago, which is really incongruous.
I'm finding myself not liking the current times much (the liberal left, Marxist, preachy, utopian crap, the controlled media propaganda, the indoctrinated cut-out politicians that are paying lip service to the same lunacy with a straight face, and the dedication of key state institutions to models & indoctrinators of more of same, is very disturbing, once you are aware.
Imagine what it would be like for someone from an entirely alien culture that is hundreds of years out of alignment, trying to adjust to the funny farm.
Not that this is an issue for the the committed religious fundamentalists like these guys must be: assimilation isn't even on their radar. Their issue is political, but sort of amped up and even more dangerous because it's also backed by and maybe even driven to a degree by what are their religious convictions. I think.
I don't know. I'm just imagining.
Anyway, I sort of find the war between Anonymous and the Islamic Cyber Army funny.
Some of the comments in the Daily Mail article are hysterical ... or I'm easily amused.
