A YouTube video claiming to be from Anonymous said that the group would attack Facebook in November this year. The video claimed that Anonymous would “kill” Facebook because it abused its users privacy.

Since the hacking group is a loose affiliation of anonymous individuals, even a spokesman for Anonymous admitted that he didn’t know whether the threat was genuine.

However, Twitter accounts for the group have dismissed the Facebook plan. A message on one Twitter account said: “"We absolutely disown #OpFacebook ... We're supposed to fight for the users, not against them. Don't violate private citizen privacy please.”
