The Sun: Bomb-making vid which inspired Manchester Arena terrorist is back online as attempts to scrub it from the web fail
"A BOMB-MAKING video used by the Manchester Arena terrorist is again being shared online, The Sun can reveal. Since the Manchester bombing in May 2017, researchers from the Counter Extremism Project have found the video circulating online 24 separate times. The most recent was last Thursday - the same day ISIS teen Shamima Begum broke her cover for the first time. The tutorial was uploaded to Anonfile, a file-sharing website which allows users to remain totally anonymous. Former Foreign Office minister Mark Simmonds, an adviser to the think-tank, said the video was a sign of the danger ISIS still poses to the public. He told The Sun: 'The re-upload of this notorious bomb-making video shows that ISIS, despite their supposed defeat, are still active online, seeking to radicalise and inspire more despicable attacks. Salman Abedi gained crucial know-how from this video, and there is a real danger others will do the same. Tech platforms need to be held to a one-hour limit to find and remove terrorist content, and employ hashing technology to ensure it can be identified quickly and further uploads prevented.'"
