Al-Qaeda and ISIL 'using porn to hide secret messages to followers'.

Al-Qaeda and ISIL 'using porn to hide secret messages to followers'. (Telegraph).

Isil and al-Qaeda jihadists are using pornographic images to hide secret messages sent to their followers on social networking websites, a new book claims.

Messages have been found in "X-rated pornographic pictures which conceal documents and orders for the next target," according to Gordon Thomas in his new book on Mossad's cybercrime unit.

Al-Qaeda has previously transmitted messages to followers through the online marketplace eBay, encrypting them in goods it offered for sale, according to the book 'Gideon's Spies: The Secret History of the Mossad'.

Several Mossad operatives have reportedly been assigned to monitor the social networking site Reddit, where messages can be buried inside a maze of niche web pages. It had long been suspected that al-Qaeda uses used steganography, the art of concealing information in plain sight, to transmit messages. Hmmm......It's not 'Islamic' to watch porn....we're just interested in the 'hidden messages'.....yeah sure....whatevah.Read the full story here.
