FERGUSON, MO (KTVI) – Two Twitter accounts belonging to the KKK have been seized by the hacker-activist group Anonymous.  ZDNet has confirmed that the group has also compromised KKK e-mail accounts and are conducting a phone harassment campaign against members.  According to a statement from Anonymous, “We are attacking you because of what you did to our brothers and sisters at the Ferguson protest on the 12th of November.”

Anonymous also announced that they will be releasing a statement Monday evening about the take-over.  The group started publicly revealing identities and personal information of KKK members Friday.

Published on Nov 14, 2014 Greetings world, we are Anonymous

KKK it has came to our unfortunate attention that you have been interfering with Anonymous.

We are not attacking you because of what you believe in as we fight for freedom of speech…

We are attacking you because of what you did to our brothers and sisters at the Ferguson protest on the 12th of November.

Due to your actions we have started Operation KKK. The aim of our operation is nothing more than Cyber Warfare. Anything you upload will be taken down, anything you use to promote the KKK will be shut down.

DDos attacks have already been sent and have infiltrated your servers over the past 2 days… d0x’s have also been launched on leaders of the KKK. All information retrieved will be given to the public.

You messed with our family and now we will mess with yours…

Let the cyber war begin.

We are legion.

We do not forgive

We do not forget

Ku Klux Klan you should have expect us.
