Hacktivist group Anonymous has hacked into the Twitter and Youtube accounts of Ridhwan Azman, a local actor who criticised the organisation and its attempts to stage a virtual protest against the Singaporean government on November 5th.
This comes after the hacker collective threatened to deface and shut down government websites in protest of new licensing rules for online news outlets.
Transcript of the video:
"Greetings Ridhwan, We have seen that you have been dissing the legion. Also, claiming that we are a joke, in all attempts to trend such is now nothing but inactive accounts. What you thought was a joke is now real.
Additionally, To all social media public figures who have been given your status thanks to your supporters, we are not involved nor do we intend to take part in your business, however, should you cause us harm or intend to be provocative we will most certainly retaliate. We are watching, expect us."
