Hacktivist collective Anonymous has launched a campaign against alt-right and neo-Nazi groups in the wake of the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, which left one woman dead.

The group claimed to have shut down numerous websites associated with the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazi organisations following the deadly clashes in Charlottesville.

People affiliated with the group also discovered the real names of dozens of people who had attended the rally, along with their known associations with the extreme movement, and posted them online with pictures.
