Anonymous Begins OpSony Targeting Sony for SOPA Support

New videos claiming to stem from the Anonymous collective have emerged showing what appears to be a series of successful hacks on Sony’s network.

Published on Cyber War News on Friday, the videos claim to prove that the Anonymous collective has made good on its promise to re-target Sony for its support of the controversial U.S. Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA).

Specifically, the videos appear to show cyber attacks on the company’s Sony Pictures website and Facebook page. The attacks were reported to have been carried out by an Anon carrying the Twitter account: @s3rver_exe.

The attack comes after analysts questioned whether the collective would make good on its OpSony threat, after many of the Japanese tech giant’s departments pulled their support for the act.
