Il collettivo di hacker Anonymous sta attaccando da diversi giorni i siti internet di banche ed enti finanziari mondiali.

Finora sono stati presi di mira una ventina di obiettivi, tra cui le banche centrali di Francia, Grecia, Tunisia, Cipro e alcuni istituti di credito commericiali, come l'americana Chase Bank.

Il primo colpo ad [andare](http://www.ilsole24ore.com/art/mondo/2016-05-04/anonymous-attacca-banca-grecia-e-minaccia-altre-banche-centrali-113848.shtml?uuid=AD2qbM) a segno è stato quello contro la Banca di Grecia, il cui sito è stato reso offline per alcuni minuti all'inizio del mese.

L'attacco, secondo quanto riportato dall'organizzazione stessa, ha anche colpito il server delle mail della banca centrale inglese.

Greetings world, We are Anonymous.

It has been said that humanity is not an end in itself but rather a means to an end.
We have shown the World our strength to deny ignorance, overcome adversity, fight oppression and even the power to throw a wrench in the system that perpetuates it. We are enslaved within a matrix of institutions with the illusion that each stands alone, fighting for power, for profits, for the scraps on the table that represent humanities dwindling resources. In reality however, these institutions - the arms industries, banking and other financial institutions, government intelligence agencies and countless others, have formed what was once a clandestine coalition whose corruption, and avarice have become increasingly transparent due to WikiLeaks and to the efforts of Anonymous. This coalition seeks the preservation and the perpetuation of the powers that be, and this octopus operates through the tentacles of the IMF, the Federal Reserve, and the World Bank, masterminded by think-tanks such as the Bilderberg group, and the Council on Foreign Relations.

The puppets of the powers that be include the president of the United States and his cabinet, and through them they are able to repress the freedom of information, and with it the free and open exchange of ideas which are fundamental to the existence and operations of Anonymous, and the ability to see beyond the veil of secrecy from which the powers that be stand behind. 
But where does the power behind the throne lie? Within the global financial system, centered within the New York Stock Exchange, and Bank of England...Full transcript: http://pastebin.com/raw/prq48WGF

We are anonymous.
We are legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Operation Icarus, engaged.
Expect us.

Anonymous - Operation Icarus: Shut Down The Banks #OpIcarus

Chiamata 'Icarus', come il personaggio mitologico greco che aveva osato avvicinarsi troppo al sole, l'operazione punta a distruggere il "cartello bancario globale."

"Dobbiamo colpire ancora una volta il cuore del loro impero, mettendogli il bastone fra le ruote," riporta il comunicato di Anonymous, "ma questa volta siamo di fronte a un bersaglio più grande: il sistema finanziario."

Alcuni siti sono rimasti offline solo per pochi minuti, altri anche alcune ore: nessuna delle banche coinvolte ha tuttavia comunicato i disservizi, né i possibili danni risultanti dagli attacchi subiti.

Sulla 'target list' [pubblicata](http://pastebin.com/raw/y7JmsKVD) da Anonymous figurano più di 200 organismi finanziari del pianeta, dal Fondo Monetario Internazionale, alla Federal Reserve americana fino alle banche nazionali, tra cui quella italiana.

Su Twitter, l'utente [s1ege](https://twitter.com/_s1ege), che si descrive come membro della squadra 'd'assalto' Ghost Squad di Anonymous, ha pubblicato in diretta i presunti effetti degli attacchi hacker, segnalando i server colpiti.

Intervistato da IBTimes, ha spiegato che i cyber-attacchi avrebbero lo scopo di "cominciare una rivoluzione globale" contro i cartelli bancari per "mettere il mondo in uno stato di caos totale."

Secondo quanto dichiarato, i prossimi obiettivi saranno il NASDAQ, il New York Stock Exchange e Paypal.
