Hacker group Anonymous briefly crashed a large collection of child pornography Web sites, and published the names of its patrons.
黑客集團匿名簡潔地當機了一個兒童色情網站的大集合，並公佈其主顧的名字。
Last week, the cyber vigilantes, better known for targeting large corporations and oppressive government regimes, used a brute force attack to infiltrate a server called Freedom Hosting, which housed about 40 child porn sites. The biggest site was Lolita City, which contained more than 100GB of content.
網絡義務巡警，以針對大型企業和暴虐的政府制度更為知名，上週使用蠻力攻破滲透到一伺服器稱為自由主機，它容納大約 40個兒童色情網站。最大的網站洛麗塔市，其中包含超過 100GB的內容。
According to a timeline of events posted on Pastebin, Anonymous said before taking down the sites, it issued a warning to Freedom Hosting to remove the illegal content. When it failed to do so, Anonymous attacked. The sites were down for about five minutes before an admin restored them, upon which Anonymous again launched a successful attack. Later, the group posted on Pastebin the names of 1,589 individuals who visited Lolita City.
根據 在Pastebin上張貼的事序，在當機網站之前，匿名說它發出過警告給自由主機去刪除非法內容。當它未有這樣做，匿名便攻擊。在管理員恢復它們之前，網站跪低約五分鐘，故此匿名再次展開成功的攻擊。後來，該組織在Pastebin上發布1,589個訪問洛麗塔市的個人名字。
"If the FBI, Interpol, or other law enforcement agency should happen to come across this list, please use it to investigate and bring justice to the people listed here," Anonymous wrote in a statement.
匿名在一份聲明中寫道：“如果美國聯邦調查局、國際刑警組織，或其它執法機關碰巧看到此列表，請使用它進行調查及對這裡列出的人帶來司法”。
The Anonymous operation was carried out by sub-group Operation Darknet, which targets abuse groups that swap images on the Tor network, an anonymous network routing service that hides a browser's location.

#OpDarknet calls Freedom Hosting "enemy number one" and is demanding the server remove all child porn content from the site and deny hosting services to any future child porn Web sites. "We will continue to not only crash Freedom Hosting's server, but any other server we find to contain, promote, or support child pornography," they said.


Anonymous, a controversial hacker coalition better known for releasing police department emails and launching denial of service attacks against Sony, has received more support than usual for this latest attack against an undeniable moral enemy.

"Anonymous pwned a bunch of pedos; huzzah," tweeted @ioerror, or Jake Appelbaum.

"I totaly [sic] support this kind of hacking. Well done," tweeted Kat Corbett, a host for KROQ radio station in Los Angeles.

Others, like security expert Graham Cluley of Sophos, disagreed with Anonymous' action.

"Their intentions may have been good, but take-downs of illegal Web sites and sharing networks should be done by the authorities, not internet vigilantes," he wrote in a blog post. "When 'amateurs' attack there is always the risk that they are compromising an existing investigation, preventing the police from gathering the necessary evidence they require for a successful prosecution, or making it difficult to argue that evidence has not been corrupted by hackers."

In early August, the Justice Department announced that it had dismantled a members-only child porn Internet bulletin board that was intended to promote pedophilia.
