Anonymous Makes Their Name With Attack On SOHH
- When Hack Happened: June 2008
- Who Did It: Anonymous Hacker Group
Anonymous is known as a “decentralized international activist/hacktivist collective/movement.” Only a few people in the group have been identified, and that was due to being out of the group by that point and choosing to be identified. Before they were known as a “hacktivist collective,” they decided to deal with a group from a hip-hop message board in 2008. SOHH.com is a hip-hop news website that, at the time, had a forum and message board system. This board often went off the rails.
