In a bold move, the Anonymous Sudan group has launched a significant cyber assault targeting the infrastructure of Etisalat, a prominent telecommunications company operating in Egypt. Etisalat, established as the third mobile operator in the Egyptian market and the inaugural integrated operator for telecom services, commenced operations officially in 2007. Notably, its inauguration witnessed a remarkable milestone, with a staggering one million subscribers acquired within the initial fifty days of its operational debut.
The rationale behind this cyber offensive, as articulated by the Anonymous Sudan group, stems from the imperative to urge the Egyptian government to hold individuals accountable for derogatory remarks directed at Sudanese citizens on various social media platforms. Through this act of cyber activism, the group seeks to convey a powerful message regarding the necessity of safeguarding the dignity and rights of Sudanese individuals in digital spaces.
