Anonymous Takes On State Department, More Banks

The Anonymous hacktivist collective hacked the U.S. State Department on Presidents’ Day. The data dump appeared to include work email addresses for over 170 State Department employees. The group also claimed Monday to have doxed the investment banking firm George K. Baum & Company. A spokesman for the State Department didn’t immediately return a call seeking a request for comment. The Anonymous Operation Last Resort campaign was launched in the wake of the suicide of Internet activist Aaron Swartz, who was arrested in 2011 on hacking charges.”]
