The defendants and other members of Anonymous allegedly launched or attempted to launch cyberattacks against government entities, trade associations, individuals, law firms and financial institutions, according to a federal grand jury indictment released Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria division. Among the organizations targeted were the Recording Industry Association of America, the Motion Picture Association of America, the U.S. Copyright Office of the Library of Congress, Visa, MasterCard, and Bank of America.
