Anonymous is targeting Iran next!

[JET1971]

So Anon steals our credit card information but then tries to save face by attack Iran?

*Le Sigh*

I'm getting quite sick of computer hackers and how they seemingly have no moral compass to keep their absolute power in check.

What are they gonna do to Iran? Or more specifically what can they do to Iran.

The only thing they've ever been able to do; DDoS.

Pathetic.

Says it right there they don't discredit the idea some of their hackers may of did it on their own for their own lulz. Plus how the hell would they know if they did it or not when they have no power structure?

 

[Bobbity]

Fuck. Sometimes Anon does something really awesome, and I support them. Then they come out and do something utterly prickish, and I hate them again. Then, after that, they come out and do something like this, which once more lends them my support.

I wish they'd bring forward a cohesive front, so I could decide whether to love them or hate them.

 

[Katana314]

Ugh. I kind of doubt all Iranians keep track of other Anonymous actions, so that last line (standard in all their announcements) may strike them as somewhat creepy and foreboding.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Roughly how many people are in Anonymous?

Is it like a small group of hackers or is it a massive worldwide group of people who are above average with computers?

I don't understand how it works.

So Anon is now picking their targets based on American propaganda eh? ¬_¬
Just how do they plan on attacking a 3rd world nation anyway? I doubt Iran has the greatest Internet access.

Seriously? Iran is defiantly not a third world country.

Edit: American propaganda? Please, stop denying seeing obvious tyrants because they are against America...

 

[duchaked]

looks like I'm not against Anon on this one...

well...depends on what/which Anon we're talking about. kinda impossible seeing how they aren't just "ONE" group or whatever

 

[Jules57]

Oh yes anon lets give people with nukes and a less than standard civil rights act a reason to not like us. Also if they do , do it I doubt very much it will make a difference, last time I checked guns worked without wifi

 

[Littlee300]

You may have Allah on your tongue, but you've got Anonymous in your homepage.

You have the awesomest posts

Have a nice cup of tea, since I feel like one right now...

anyone can join. anyone can leave. Anonymous is the unknown mob. It's just that Anonymous currently has a bunch of apparently skilled hackers in its ranks so that it can actually make an impact.

 

[JET1971]

IRAN HAS NO NUKES people. they want them and are trying to get them. but they have none as of yet. they just reported that they had another virus in the uranium enrichment program, the one thats for supposed electricity. but suffice it to say iran has no nukes as of now.

 

[LongAndShort]

BAAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! This is fucking hilarious!

What the fuck are they gonna do? Do they honestly think anyone in Iran honestly gives a fuck whether a bunch of hackers stand with them? Does Anon think that if it knocks out a few websites they'll usher in some great revolution that will sweep across the nation and usher in a new era of secular prosperity?

The Ayatollah has stayed in power through proxy wars, real wars, protests, riots, famine, elections... Do they think that a bunch of westerners wagging their virtual fingers will get him to break a sweat?

 

[JET1971]

the ayatollah in my opinion deserves some .50 love. but then again i think all dictators deserve that.

 

[randomsix]

Ahmadinijad isn't the real problem; its the imams who back him and give his rule any scrap of legitimacy.

Anon already had quite an impact with the other revolutions in the middle east, i.e. Egypt. True, it is highly unlikely that anything will happen strictly because of them, but add whatever they do to whatever other factors are present and the same thing can happen as in Egypt.

 

[icame]

Thats nice. It might stop them from being completely hypocritical pricks for a while.

If there is AnonOps then there must be some sort of power structure, if only for the duration of an operation. But if a few members went off on there own that is still no reason to blame the whole group. If a football player gets arrested, do we blame the team?

My bet on what they should do. Hack nuke codes, gain control and change codes to something really awesome, like DOUBLESGET! or somthing along those lines
