Why this is better

Verified both corrections are present in the body text and bibliography: the unverified 'Operation Marco Polo' codename is gone, and Operation Onymous is correctly described as seizing hundreds of .onion services while arresting seventeen people. The FAQ field's mention of Operation Onymous is also already correct (no stale figures). No changes needed.
