Anonymous hacks Russian media censorship agency and leaks 340,000 files amid claims Moscow could try to cut the country off from the internet

 

 Anonymous has hacked into Russia's media censorship agency and released 340,000 files in the latest attack to undermine Vladimir Putin President Putin's war propaganda campaign.
 According to Mail Online, the hacktivists broke into the Roskomnadzor federal agency to steal the classified documents which they then passed on to transparency organisation Distributed Denial of Secrets (DDoSecrets), who published them online.
 The trove of 820 gigabytes of emails and attachments, some of which are dated as late as March 5, show how the Kremlin is censoring anything referring to their brutal invasion of Ukraine, which Moscow is instead calling a 'special military operation'.
 The Anonymous hacker said they 'urgently felt the Russian people should have access to information about their government', DDoSecrets said.  
 The files relate to the Russian republic of Bashkortostan, one of the largest in the federation with a population of four million.
