The original Operation KKK, or #OpKKK, was launched in November of 2014 when Anonymous reportedly hacked KKK Twitter accounts, exposed Klan members' identities, and may have even caused some Klan members to leave the hate group, according to International Business Times

That original feud between the KKK and Anonymous jumped off when the Klan said it would "use lethal force" against protesters in Ferguson. 

The group identifying itself as Anonymous released a new statement this week saying it was going after the KKK once again.

The message from Operation KKK stressed that the attacks by Anonymous have nothing to do with the KKK's hateful beliefs, but "because of what you do to our brothers and sisters" when terrorizing them into not taking advantage of their own right to free speech.
