A notorious hacktivist group’s war against those who access child porn online continues.

Late last month, Anonymous claimed that it crashed several child porn sites and shamed those who allegedly patronized them.
Late last week, Anonymous released the IP addresses of nearly 200 visitors to child porn sites, using information collected from the sites it had shut down. An IP address is the unique number used by every device that connects to the Internet.
According to msnbc.com, Anonymous captured the IP addresses of visitors to child porn sites by tricking them into downloading a fake update to Tor software, which can be used to obscure a user’s identity. The update routed traffic to a server controlled by Anonymous that logged incoming IP addresses and destinations.
The site said that Anonymous posted this message on Pastebin to the accused child porn viewers it had exposed: “To the pedophile community, based on the evidence and forensics, that We Anonymous gathered, there is no need for you to troll anymore, mmmkay? We have already ID’d you despite ‘the myth’ of Tor ‘Anonymity.’ We ‘pwned’ and ‘hacked’ Freedom Hosting and Lolita City. If your names for your sick trade consist of ‘Lolita’ and ‘pedo bear,’ pedophiles are called ‘Britney’ and ‘squealer’ in jail.”
