Purported hacker claims they defaced Trump's campaign website to protest Biden's stance on Turkey.
Hackers appeared to deface a portion of former President Donald Trump's campaign website on Monday, replacing it was an Islamic message and video featuring Turkish President Recep Erdogan.
In November 2020, hackers using the same name defaced a campaign website for President Joe Biden, using it to promote "Turkish nationalist themes," as detailed in a report from the US National Intelligence Council.
Monday's hack included links to Facebook and Instagram accounts for the purported hackers, who identify as "RootAyyildiz."
A person claiming to be the hacker told Insider, in a Facebook message, that they carried out Monday's attack because they had "hacked Joe Biden before and now he is Trump," asserting that the current US president is "anti-Turkey and anti-Islam." They claimed to be a supporter of Erdogan but not an agent of the Turkish government.
