Subject: Whats your opinion on the group Anonymous?

Personally I think they are a bunch of immature geeks who try and take the law into their own hands by breaking laws already in place. Hbu?

I am the Thorian, known as Species 37 to you people. I am an ancient sentient plant that is fifty thousand years old. My ability to hibernate for thousands of years makes my real age impossible to guess though you are welcome to try.

Dumb people are just blissfully unaware of how very dumb they are.

I personally think they're highly overrated. Honestly they're probably no even an organized group...

  • 01.02.2013 2:50 PM PDT

i don't know who they are

  • 01.02.2013 2:50 PM PDT

Not familiar with them. What do they do?

Stop.

Anyone can claim to be Anonymous, the ones shutting down websites and going against what Anonymous was about are the ones you should be hating.

Anonymous was created as an idea to do good, not to cause situations that harm everyone.

No. I also hate the real anonymous. The people who are hacking emails and trying to expose people.

Kinda pointless. Yeah, you can bring down their website and pull up information..that doesn't change what they do in reality.

Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

I find they have two core ironies that I cannot easily ignore.

1: They state that they are advocates/protectors of free-speech, but their most common form of protest and action is to disconnect those whose speech (that they disagree with) from the medium that allows communication. In other words, they silence/censor those with whom they have an issue or disagree.

2: That their other main course of action is to steal and publicize names and personal data of others, while advocating their own anonymity/privacy.

Some do good and some do bad. Anonymous isn't a group in the normal sense of the word. Anonymous is a a group that anyone can claim to be a part of.

Many unfortunately claim to be anonymous who want nothing more than to cause chaos. This gives a bad name to those who truly do good.

Get ahold of people's details like emails, addresses, bank details etc etc.

Fairly recently they harassed a girls family by sending constant pizza deliveries to their house. And they do things like hack people's accounts on various websites. Basically they d everything you wouldn't want t happen to you on the Internet.

There the "voice of the Internet". I guess in a sense they exist to protect the internet. Like that stupid proposal law that could shut down all websites without any repercussion. Anon hated that so they started hacking into government sites (changing the front pages to black screens, shutting some down) trying to gain attention.
