Not content to simply scourge ISIS’ bank accounts and social media, the counter-terrorism hackers at Ghost Security Group have replaced a dark web Islamic State propaganda site with an ad for Prozac.

The site Isdarat on the Tor anonymity network now directs visitors to chill.

“Too Much ISIS. Enhance your calm,” the site reads. “Too many people are into this ISIS-stuff. Please gaze upon this lovely ad so we can upgrade our infrastructure to give you ISIS content you all so desperately crave.”

Enhance your calm, ISIS.

Besides Prozac, the cryptocurrency pharmacy also pushes Viagra.

Wired recently revealed the Islamic State’s 34-page guide to tightening security online, filled with basic tips like using apps and being sure you’re communicating on encrypted channels.

With that level of security, no surprise hackers have been able to tear down so much of their social media presence.
