Hacker group 'Anonymous' attempts to hijack debate hashtags

The hacker group “Anonymous” is attempting to attempt to hijack debate-themed hashtags on Twitter tonight. Their goal is to flood Twitter with posts condemning this year’s National Defense Authorization Act, claiming that it contains a provision that authorizes indefinite detention of American Citizens.

Apparently their nefarious cyberplot is to copy and repost tweets over and over again, hoping to trend their own hashtag #stopNDAA on the back of debate traffic. An instruction sheet was distributed, including a list of prefabricated tweets to distribute.

These people are very active tonight, with multiple tweets including #stopNDAA appearing every second. Here are a few examples:

For those curious about the actual NDAA, the section that Anonymous doesn’t like allows the government to detain people who either directly participated in the 9/11 attacks or are affiliated with the Taliban or al-Qaeda. So, blowing it up into “save your kids!” doesn’t really hold water unless your kids happen to be joining al-Qaeda.
