A Tunisian hacker group affiliated with Anonymous hacked the Facebook page of Hizb Ettahrir, an Islamist political party that is legally unrecognized in Tunisia. . Hackers left a video message on Facebook pages of Tunisian Islamists, warning them against introducing strict Salafist laws to the country.
"We are fighting you... your emails, your bank accounts and transactions will be probed, your hard discs will be copied. If the Tunisian government won't stop your activities in the weeks to come, Anonymous will" said in the video.
According to Tunisia Alive, a member of Tunisian Anonymous group, calling himself "CaliforniaKB", says that the attack was in retaliation to activities carried out by Tunisian hacking group, Fellaga, on behalf of Hizb ut-Tahrir.
“We are not liberals, we do not represent any political party. We are for the people, we are the people. We fight fire with fire, we were watching and doing nothing until we saw the Tunisian flag getting down in Manouba University,” CaliforniaKB explained.“We are not against Hizb Ettahrir. Personally, I am a Muslim; we are against any extremist idea whether from left, right or center,” he asserted.
“We do have access to many secret files. We are waiting for the good moment to take you down unless you finish the revolution in the right way,” He left the party with a warning.
