The end is beginning, my brothers and sisters! All shall be reduced to ashes! None will survive the coming storm!
Two things.
1. This enforces the idea that the internet needs to be regulated, because if it's one thing that the law absolutely despises, it's vigilantes.
2. Anonymous has no discretion. And this does cover ALL of the little splinter groups calling themselves Anonymous. Like attacking Utah. What did Utah do to anyone?

What's all this talk of the roof caving in and heading for the bombshelter? Take a look outside people, the sky is still there and the ICBMs haven't dropped as far as I can tell... More hyperbole, anyone?

Anon are a touchy bunch, and my views on them are also touchy. It's hard to support a "group" of people whose goal is moral but methods are childish.
But in this case, what they did helps nothing, when the some US politicians want to try and pass a law that could censor the net the last thing to do is fuel their reason.

Well you'd be right about that.
I don't give a toss what anon do, and DDoSing something doesn't exactly spark the thoughts of 'internet vigilantes'. Just 'internet guys with nothing better to do'.
Well Wikipedia do something useful.The_root_of_all_evil said:Sort of like Wikipedia yesterday.Daystar Clarion said:
Oh, wait:
Anon don't.
And this is why you don't mess with Megaporn.
Anon, love them or hate them, I guess they are at least dealing with the loss of files (porn) in the only way they know.
"They took our porn? FIRE THE DDOS CANNON!"
