Its tagline is simply &#8220;we are legion&#8221;, referring to its allegedly large numbers of individuals. <\/p>\n<p>Without any central command structure, anyone can claim to be a part of the group.<\/p>\n<p>This also means that members can have wildly different priorities, and there is no single agenda. <\/p>\n<p>But generally, they are activists, taking aim at those they accuse of misusing power. They do so in very public ways, such as hijacking websites or forcing them offline.<\/p>\n<p>Their symbol is a Guy Fawkes mask, made famous by Alan Moore&#8217;s graphic novel V for Vendetta, in which an anarchist revolutionary dons the mask to topple a corrupt fascist government.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"story-body__crosshead\">What actions have they taken?<\/h2>\n<p>Various forms of cyber-attack are being attributed to Anonymous in relation to the George Floyd protests.<\/p>\n<p>First, the Minneapolis police department website was temporarily taken offline over the weekend in a suspected Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. <\/p>\n<p>This is an unsophisticated but effective form of cyber-attack that floods a server with data until it can&#8217;t keep up and stops working &#8211; in the same way that shopping websites can go offline when too many people flood it to snap up high-demand products.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"media-with-caption\" readability=\"-24\">\n<div class=\"player-with-placeholder\" readability=\"7\">\n<p>Media playback is unsupported on your device<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div><figcaption class=\"media-with-caption__caption\"><span class=\"off-screen\">Media caption<\/span>EXPLAINED: What is a DDoS attack?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A database of email addresses and passwords claiming to be hacked from the police department&#8217;s system is also in circulation, and being linked to Anonymous. <\/p>\n<p>However, there is no evidence that the police servers have been hacked and one researcher, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.troyhunt.com\/analysing-the-alleged-minneapolis-police-department-hack\/\" class=\"story-body__link-external\">Troy Hunt, says the credentials are likely to have been compiled from older data breaches<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>A page on the website of a minor United Nations agency has been turned into a memorial for Mr Floyd, replacing its contents with the message &#8220;Rest in Power, George Floyd&#8221;, along with an Anonymous logo.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"media-landscape no-caption full-width\"><span class=\"image-and-copyright-container\"> <span class=\"off-screen\">Image copyright<\/span> <span class=\"story-image-copyright\">UN<\/span> <\/span> <\/figure>\n<p>On Twitter, unverified posts have also gone viral, apparently showing police radios playing music and preventing communication. <\/p>\n<p>However, experts suggest it is unlikely to be a hack, and could instead be the result of a stolen piece of hardware being commandeered by protesters on the scene &#8211; if the videos are genuine in the first place. <\/p>\n<p>Anonymous activists are also circulating years-old accusations against President Trump, taken from documents in a civil court case that was voluntarily dismissed by the accuser before it went to trial.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"story-body__crosshead\">Have they acted over race issues before?<\/h2>\n<p>Despite there being no single unified approach among Anonymous&#8217; members, the group has targeted groups over race relations in the past.<\/p>\n<p>In 2014, when the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, prompted widespread protests, members of Anonymous threatened to target the city if protesters were harmed.<\/p>\n<p>They then disabled the city&#8217;s website, compromising communications at city hall, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/morning-mix\/wp\/2014\/08\/13\/amid-ferguson-protests-anonymous-hacktivists-wage-cyberwar\/\" class=\"story-body__link-external\">and targeting the city&#8217;s police chief<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Later that year, they <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/blogs-trending-30105412\" class=\"story-body__link\">&#8220;declared war&#8221; on the Ku Klux Klan (KKK)<\/a>, releasing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/technology-34736941\" class=\"story-body__link\">personal details of alleged members<\/a> online.<\/p>\n<p>Some Anonymous members also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2016\/12\/14\/13951762\/anonymous-black-lives-matter-ddos-attack-six-months-hacktivism\" class=\"story-body__link-external\">attacked the campaign group Black Lives Matter&#8217;s website over alleged &#8220;anti-white racism&#8221;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"story-body__crosshead\">Is this return credible? <\/h2>\n<p>George Floyd&#8217;s death has led to what the BBC&#8217;s New York correspondent Nick Bryant described as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/world-us-canada-52872401\" class=\"story-body__link\">the most widespread racial turbulence and civil unrest<\/a> since the assassination of Martin Luther King in 1968.<\/p>\n<p>It is against this backdrop that a Facebook page claiming to be linked to Anonymous released a video about Mr Floyd&#8217;s death, alleging a string of other crimes involving Minneapolis police, and threatening to act.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"media-landscape no-caption full-width\"><span class=\"image-and-copyright-container\"> <span class=\"off-screen\">Image copyright<\/span> <span class=\"story-image-copyright\">Facebook<\/span> <\/span> <\/figure>\n<p>The same Facebook page posted similar videos about UFOs and &#8220;China&#8217;s plan for world domination&#8221; in recent weeks which &#8211; like the George Floyd video &#8211; feature an electronically-disguised voice discussing previously published news stories.<\/p>\n<p>But it received much wider attention after the Minneapolis police department&#8217;s website appeared to be knocked offline.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"story-body__crosshead\">Is this the kind of cyber-attack that Anonymous is typically associated with?<\/h2>\n<p>The first major Anonymous operation to make headlines was against the Church of Scientology in 2008, in which it used DDoS attacks to knock some of the organisation&#8217;s websites offline, along with prank calls and empty fax messages designed to disrupt their communications.<\/p>\n<p>In the years that followed, in the aftermath of a global financial crisis, the group acted in support of the Arab Spring protest movements, targeted Sony Entertainment over its attempt to crack down on hacking of the PlayStation 3 console, and supported the Occupy Wall Street protests, among others.<\/p>\n<p>They have continued to lend support to similar causes, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-england-london-34743083\" class=\"story-body__link\">staged anti-establishment rallies around the world<\/a>, but their prominence in mainstream media had diminished in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>The revolutionary image and willingness to take on powerful entities, however, appears to be striking a chord during the current crisis in the United States.<\/p>\n<p> READ MORE <a
