Submission + - Dissension Grows Inside Anonymous Because of Different Political Views (softpedia.com) 1
An anonymous reader writes: Political tensions relating to the US presidential race are creating turmoil inside the Anonymous hacker collective, muddling waters even more in a group that's known for its lack of leadership and a common goal.
The most recent Anonymous infighting relates to the actions of the group's most famous news portal known as AnonHQ, who's been showing downright public support for Bernie Sanders, while being extremely busy at bashing Trump, Cruz, and more recently issuing video threats against Clinton.
Ever since Anonymous' official news source has started showing public support for Sanders, many of the group's divisions have publicily disavowed it and have even gone so far as launching constant wave of DDoS attacks at what once used to be the hacker's official news portal. Last month, when a former Anonymous member decided to dox himself, he said in interviews that the group had been infiltrated by government agents.
