Operation Onymous[edit]
- ... that although the joint US and European (Europol HQ pictured) Operation Onymous was reported to have shut down over 400 dark net sites, it is now thought that just 27 sites were affected?
- ALT1:... that the online marketplace Silk Road 3.0 appeared only hours after Silk Road 2.0 had been shut down as part of Operation Onymous?

Created 6 November, 3016 characters, well-cited. ALT1 is fully supported by the UK Business Insider citation, though the ABC News link is dead and should probably be removed since it's redundant. The main hook is supported by multiple citations, though I'd recommend rephrasing "fewer than 50" to "27" since it looks incorrect in the context of the "upward of 50" figure. Tangentially, I might suggest that the caption in the article explain Europol's connection to the operation, since it's buried in the third paragraph. Nice work! hinnk (talk) 08:20, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
