Anonymous has a history with child predators. The hacktivist group frequently targets them during its operations, but it’s now launching a massive attack on numerous Web sites as part of a new operation.

Anonymous announced today that it has taken down the North American Man/Boy Love Association’s Web site in protest of Alice Day. The unofficial holiday, originally known as Pedophile Pride Day, is celebrated every April 25. To counter the group’s message and in observation of Child Abuse Awareness Month, Anonymous will be taking down numerous child pornography Web sites around the world today.

For those who can’t watch the video, here’s a transcript:

April is child abuse awareness month, and coincidentally it is also a month in which child rapists, molesters and abusers celebrate a particular holiday. On April 25th, Abusers worldwide celebrate the holiday Alice Day, named after Alice Liddell and, “Alice In Wonderland”, originally Pedophile Pride Day. On this holiday the pedophiles celebrate, rape and molestation of little girls. Many pedophiles believe it is okay for them to celebrate “loving” a female child that day.

We call upon all Anonymous Operatives to come forward and march with us as legion. To deface and cause chaos within the pedophile networks.

To the public; On April 25th we will be conducting various operations involving online methods such as Distributed Denial of Service attacks, doxing, and website defacement. We ask that you please watch your children and be extra vigilant, because April 25th is like Christmas to them.

The Daily Dot reports that Anonymous will be targeting every pedophile hub on the Net. The goal is to take them down and keep them down for as long as possible. The group obviously hopes it can also out as many pedophiles in the hope that those outed will be arrested.
