The internet vigilantes: Anonymous hackers' group outs man, 32, 'who drove girl, 15, to suicide by spreading topless photos of her'
Os vigilantes da Internet: grupo de hackers anónimos expulsa homem, de 32 anos, 'que levou a menina, de 15, ao suicídio, espalhando fotos suas em topless'

Anonymous has named a man it claims posted topless pictures of a 15-year-old girl online and harassed her so relentlessly that she killed herself. 
O Anonymous nomeou um homem que terá publicado fotos de uma garota de 15 anos em topless online e a assediou tão implacavelmente que ela se matou.
  • "a 15-year-old girl" - uma garota de 15 anos.
Amanda Todd, from Vancouver, Canada, was found hanged in her home on October 10, just weeks after she uploaded a video to YouTube detailing her horrific treatment at the hands of cyber bullies.
Amanda Todd, de Vancouver, no Canadá, foi encontrada enforcada em sua casa no dia 10 de outubro, poucas semanas depois de ter enviado um vídeo para o YouTube, detalhando o seu tratamento horrível às mãos de agressores cibernéticos.
  • "was found hanged" - foi encontrada enforcada.
  • "just weeks after" - poucas semanas depois.
When she was just 12, a man in an internet chat room convinced her to flash her breasts, and a year later, he plastered a picture of the incident across Facebook.
Quando ela tinha apenas 12 anos, um homem numa sala de chat na Internet convenceu-a a mostrar os seios e, um ano depois, divulgou uma fotografia do incidente no Facebook.
Now in a vigilante move, Anonymous, the world's largest hacking group, has named the man allegedly responsible for the picture.
Agora, num movimento de vigilância, os Anonymous, o maior grupo de hackers do mundo, nomearam o homem supostamente responsável pela foto.
The group claims that he is a 32-year-old from British Columbia, but MailOnline has chosen not to identify him for legal reasons.
O grupo afirma que tem 32 anos e é natural da Colúmbia Britânica, mas o MailOnline optou por não o identificar por motivos legais.
  • "The group claims that" - O grupo afirma que.
  • "The group claim that" - O grupo afirmam que.
  • GRAMÁTICA: Alguns substantivos coletivos como audience (audiência), class (turma, classe), club (clube), company (companhia), congregation (congregação), family (família), government (governo), group (grupo), team (time) e union (união) podem ser usados com o verbo no singular ou no plural.(GRAMÁTICA - Língua Inglesa - Teoria e Prática - Giovana Teixeira Campos.)
As Todd's supporters set up Facebook pages warning the man to 'sleep with one eye open', the move by Anonymous sparks concerns over its abilities to create a 'trial by internet' - bypassing the justice system and casting guilt.
Enquanto os apoiadores de Todd criam páginas no Facebook alertando o homem para “dormir com um olho aberto”, a medida do Anonymous levanta preocupações sobre a sua capacidade de criar um “julgamento pela Internet” – contornando o sistema de justiça e lançando culpas.
In a video posted to YouTube by Anonymous, a figure claims the group lists his personal information, including his date of birth and address.
Num vídeo publicado no YouTube pelos Anonymous, uma figura afirma que o grupo lista as suas informações pessoais, incluindo a data de nascimento e a morada.
It explains that his username appears on websites where he 'blackmailed' and gave advice to young girls.
Explica que o seu nome de usuário aparece em websites onde ele “chantageava” e dava conselhos a garotas.
The same username is also tied to a website with a 'jailbait' photo gallery.
O mesmo nome de usuário também está ligado a um site com uma galeria de fotos ‘jailbait’.
'[He] is an abomination to our society, and will be punished,' the Anonymous figure says.
“[Ele] é uma abominação para a nossa sociedade e será punido”, diz a figura dos Anonymous.
Referring to the possibility they might have the wrong man, they add: 'At the most this is the person who did this to Amanda Todd, and at the least it's another pedophile that enjoys taking advantage of children.'
Referindo-se à possibilidade de terem escolhido o homem errado, acrescentam: 'No máximo, esta é a pessoa que fez isto à Amanda Todd e, no mínimo, é mais um pedófilo que gosta de se aproveitar das crianças'.
Following Anonymous' announcement, the web moved swiftly, with groups calling for his death and warning him to 'sleep with one eye open' cropping up on Facebook.
Após o anúncio dos Anonymous, a web mudou rapidamente, com grupos a pedir a sua morte e a alertá-lo para “dormir de olho aberto” a surgir no Facebook.
CKNW reporters have unsuccessfully tried to speak with the man, and neighbours have described his home as 'a known party house on the weekend with lots of young women coming and going'.
Os repórteres da CKNW tentaram, sem sucesso, falar com o homem, e os vizinhos descreveram a sua casa como “uma conhecida casa de festas aos fins-de-semana, com muitas mulheres jovens a entrar e a sair”.
But police attended the home on Monday after a neighbour, Chyne Simpson, said Anonymous named the wrong address. He said he felt threatened by internet users and asked them to stay away.
Mas a polícia compareceu na casa na segunda-feira, depois de um vizinho, Chyne Simpson, ter dito que o Anonymous deu a morada errada. Disse que se sentiu ameaçado pelos internautas e pediu-lhes que se afastassem.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police refused to confirm Anonymous have the right man but a spokesperson said they were aware that someone had been named.
A Real Polícia Montada do Canadá recusou-se a confirmar que o Anonymous tinha o homem certo, mas um porta-voz disse estar ciente de que alguém tinha sido nomeado.
'We are aware of what’s being posted online and certainly following up what we feel is important to follow up,' Sergeant Peter Thiessen told The Globe and Mail, adding: '[Vigilantes] run the risk of committing a criminal offence.'
"Estamos cientes do que está a ser publicado online e certamente a acompanhar o que consideramos importante acompanhar", disse o sargento Peter Thiessen ao The Globe and Mail, acrescentando: "[Os vigilantes] correm o risco de cometer um crime".
Todd's family members also said they are not sure the Anonymous report is accurate and said police have tracked down a person living in the U.S. whom they believed was involved.
Os familiares de Todd disseram também não ter a certeza se o relatório do Anonymous é preciso e disseram que a polícia localizou uma pessoa que vive nos EUA e que acreditavam estar envolvida.
The claims come weeks after Amanda posted a nearly nine-minute YouTube video detailing her treatment on a stack of notecards held up to the camera.
As alegações surgem semanas depois de Amanda ter publicado um vídeo de quase nove minutos no YouTube detalhando o seu tratamento numa pilha de cartões apontados para a câmara.
Todd says that a year after she flashed her breasts, the man tracked her down and demanded he put on a show for him or he would expose her.
Todd diz que um ano depois de ela mostrar os seios, o homem localizou-a e exigiu que lhe fizesse um concerto ou ele iria expô-la.
When she refused, he created a Facebook page with a list of her friends and used her naked chest as the profile photo. The picture quickly spread across the internet and among her classmates.
Quando ela recusou, ele criou uma página no Facebook com uma lista de amigos dela e usou o seu peito nu como foto de perfil. A imagem rapidamente se espalhou pela internet e entre os seus colegas.
It led to relentless bullying online, she said, and she was diagnosed with depression and started drinking. In the video, posted September 7, she admitted that she had previously tried to kill herself twice and has been hospitalised.
Isto levou a um bullying online implacável, disse ela, e foi diagnosticada com depressão e começou a beber. No vídeo, publicado a 7 de setembro, admitiu que já se tinha tentado matar duas vezes e estava hospitalizada.
After moving to a different city and school, another instance of bullying occurred after she started a romantic relationship with an older man who had a girlfriend. Once that relationship soured, she was confronted and beaten up by the man's girlfriend. She was hit in front of a crowd of screaming people who encouraged her to be left in a ditch.
Depois de se mudar para outra cidade e escola, ocorreu outro caso de bullying depois de ter iniciado uma relação amorosa com um homem mais velho que tinha namorada. Depois de a relação ter azedado, foi confrontada e espancada pela namorada do homem. Foi atingida em frente a uma multidão de pessoas que gritavam que a encorajaram a ser deixada numa vala.
Amanda does not speak in the video, and her face is not fully shown, but she confirmed her identity with the last notecard which says her name.
Amanda não fala no vídeo e o seu rosto não aparece na totalidade, mas confirmou a sua identidade com o último notecard que diz o seu nome.
One of the final images is a jarring picture of her arm which had been cut repeatedly. Just under six weeks after posting the video, Todd could take the bullying no longer, and took her own life.
Uma das imagens finais é uma imagem chocante do seu braço, que foi cortado vezes sem conta. Pouco menos de seis semanas depois de ter publicado o vídeo, Todd não aguentou mais o bullying e tirou a própria vida.
During a memorial for Todd on Monday, her friends said they have been aware of a man in his 30s 'stalking' their friend for years.
Durante um memorial a Todd na segunda-feira, os seus amigos disseram que sabiam de um homem na casa dos 30 anos que ‘perseguiu’ o seu amigo há anos.
'There were multiple accounts with random names,' one friend told QMI Agency. 'There were Twitter accounts also used.'
“Havia várias contas com nomes aleatórios”, disse um amigo à Agência QMI. 'Também foram utilizadas contas do Twitter'.
The Vancouver Sun reported that Amanda was a student in Grade 10 at the Coquitlam Basic Alternative Education school.
O Vancouver Sun noticiou que Amanda era aluna do 10º ano na escola Coquitlam Basic Alternative Education.
The principal of the school confirmed her death and said that she had become connected with many since she transferred to the school in the middle of last year.
A diretora da escola confirmou a sua morte e disse que se ligou a muitas pessoas desde que se transferiu para a escola, em meados do ano passado.
'It is a very sad case,' Paul McNaughton told the paper. 'I can tell you we feel we tried everything we could to help her when she came to us.'
“É um caso muito triste”, disse Paul McNaughton ao jornal. 'Posso dizer que sentimos que tentámos tudo o que podíamos para a ajudar quando ela veio ter connosco'.
Her death prompted a local politician to release a video of her own that pleads to put an end to bullying.
A sua morte levou um político local a lançar um vídeo da sua autoria que implora pelo fim do bullying.
'I just heard about Amanda. I want to say to everyone who loved her, to all her family and friends, how sorry I am about her loss,' British Columbia premier Christy Clark said.
Acabei de ouvir falar da Amanda. Quero dizer a todos os que a amavam, a todos os seus familiares e amigos, o quanto lamento a sua perda”, disse a primeira-ministra da Colúmbia Britânica, Christy Clark.
'No one deserves to be bullied. No one earns it. No one asks for it. It isn't a rite of passage. Bullying has to stop.'
'Ninguém merece ser intimidado. Ninguém ganha isso. Ninguém pede isso. Não é um ritual de passagem. O bullying tem de parar.

A NEW TYPE OF HACKTIVISM: ANONYMOUS BRANCHES OUT

Anonymous is an umbrella term for an internet subculture - a collection of individuals, or 'hacktivists', who share common ideas of anti-censorship and freedom of speech on the internet.

While Anonymous is focused on freedom of speech, releasing names of internet harassers is new territory for the group, which is best known for hacking government and company websites.

They have carried out cyber attacks on Visa, MasterCard, PayPal and Amazon, and have threatened to take down Facebook and Twitter servers.

The group has connections with the lesser-known hacking group LulzSec, short for Lulz Security, an elite hacker group that has claimed responsibility for high-profile, debilitating cyber attacks.

Their big hits include the compromising of user account data from Sony Pictures and taking the CIA website offline. They also attacked Fox.com, leaking the names of more than 7,000 X Factor contestants, and the PBS Newshour website, where they posted a story claiming that slain killer Tupac was still living and in New Zealand.

The group aims to cause mayhem and manipulate flaws in security and passwords systems. It is believed to have caused billions of dollars in damages to corporations, banks and agencies.

It hit the headlines in March this year after Hector Xavier Monsegur, one of the group's ringleaders and an influential member of Anonymous, turned fellow hackers over to authorities.

After his arrest in New York on hacking charges in June 2011, the 28-year-old reportedly began working with the FBI to bring down the groups' top members, and five were later arrested.

TÓPICOS - VOCABULÁRIO & RELAÇÃO SEMÂNTICA COM TRECHO DO TEXTO:

30  (ESPP-2013-COBRA TECNOLOGIA-ANALISTA) In each of the following text pages, a connective is missing.

I. “Six months ago, saving Libya from potential atrocities inspired by Moammar Gadhafi meant establishing a nofly zone over the country, all the better to protect Benghazi, the rebel stronghold in the east._____________classic mission creep set in and the NATO forces, Canada among them, were bombing Tripoli and clearly trying to eliminate Africa’s longest-standing dictator and his sons (while denying that was the goal).”

II. “Like all early civilisations Ancient Greece was an agricultural society. Most of the people lived by farming and the main form of wealth was owning land. In each city there was an upper class and a middle class of men like substantial farmers, doctors and teachers. _________ the vast majority of people were peasants and craftsmen or slaves. Slavery was common. (It is estimated that about 30% of the population of Athens was made up of slaves). If they worked in rich peoples homes slaves could be reasonably treated. However by law owners were allowed to flog slaves. Those slaves who worked in mines probably suffered the most.”

III. “Older people are facing a scarcity of qualified nurses to care for them __________ the Government changes its policy on undergraduate education, a leading nursing organisation has warned. The All-Ireland Gerontological Nurses Association (AIGNa) is calling for the urgent introduction of specialised nursing degree courses in care for older people - as an estimated 700 jobs remain unfilled in the sector.”

The alternative that respectively brings the correct connective for each one is:

a) As far as / however / then.
b) Nevertheless / however / as far as.
c) Unlike / unless / as far as.
d) Then / however / unless.
