November, 2014 - “Welcome to “Operation Onymous.” Europol’s Cybercrime Centre, the Federal Bureau of Investigations, the US Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, and the Department of Homeland Security announced earlier this month that they had formed a Joint Cybercrime Action Team and spent six months preparing to take down sites on Tor. Troels Oerting (head of the Cybercrime Centre) said we have demonstrated that we are able to efficiently remove vital criminal infrastructures that are supporting serious organised crime. And we are not ‘just’ removing these services from the open Internet; this time we have also hit services on the Darknet using Tor where, for a long time, criminals have considered themselves beyond reach. We can now show that they are neither invisible nor untouchable.”
As long as they take down real bad guys and leave the rest alone, no problem
