Social Media and Jihadists


For John, BLUFISIL is a learning machine.  Nothing to see here; just move along.



The source for this article is The Jordan Times (From Agence France-Presse).

"Jihadists increasingly wary of Internet — experts."

From the lede.

After having used the Internet profusely for propaganda and recruitment, jihadist organisations have realised that investigators are gleaning crucial information online and are increasingly concealing their web presence, experts say.

Apart from recent orders given to fighters to limit their exposure, erase the footprint of their online activity and avoid revealing too many place names or faces, the Islamic State (IS) and Al Nusra Front groups are increasingly using the "Dark Web" — the hidden part of the Internet protected by powerful encryption softwares.

Dark Web?
