The Yeshiva World - The FBI is executing search warrants at two Long Island, N.Y., homes and one Brooklyn, N.Y., home of three suspected members of notorious hacking group Anonymous early Tuesday morning, FoxNews.com has learned.
More than 10 FBI agents arrived at the Baldwin, N.Y., home of Giordani Jordan with a search warrant for computers and computer-related accessories.
The targets of the FBI searches are all in their late teens to early 20s.
Jordan’s system was identified as allegedly being used in a coordinated distributed denial of service attack against several companies, a law enforcement official told FoxNews.com.
Tuesday’s search warrants are part of an ongoing investigation into Anonymous and its alleged retaliatory attacks. The Anonymous group is a loose collection of cybersavvy activists inspired by WikiLeaks and its flamboyant head Julian Assange to fight for Internet freedom – along the way defacing websites, shutting down servers, and scrawling messages across screens web-wide.
