I smell three little scapegoats, and a bunch of big, bad wolves who followed the butthurt corporate's orders.
Seriously now, why three? This kind of coordinate attack would involve more than three hackers, if you're going to round them up. Get them all. Otherwise leave them alone, the worst thing they can do is to arrest a handful without actually dealing with the main problem.
Jailing three of the possible hacker would not solve the problem, but fuel it..... Who am I to judge? People go to jail for more stupid reasons.

Anonymous.
There's that word angain and it pisses me off.
I usualy visit /v and I have to say 4chan is not bad.
The only thing that makes people think of it as a horrible place is /b and the anonymity because honestly everyone's a douche when there are no consequences.

Yeah this is kinda how to look at it.thethingthatlurks said:
Also, where do the police get these ideas? There was doubtfully any one person in charge in the first place, and even then, this will likely just cause other members to go under cover.
Wait. I thought Anonymous has maintained that they had nothing to do with the PSN hack that brought down the network for so long. Now, we're hearing that three people that were a part of Anon and were involved in the attack have been arrested. And rather than denying or trying to clarify the situation Anon responds with a blanket "We are Legion" response? Say what?
Now, I understand that these people were involved in other activities that are probably why they were being sought in the first place, and that Anon is rather proud of many of their actions such as bringing down the sites of some governments like Iran. But considering the amount of love that gamers in general give Anon, I would think that they would at least deny that they were involved in the PSN hack. It's also worth noting that Anon seems to defend these men.
So, what's going on here? Do the authorities have this much wrong? Is Anon admitting that they were involved in the hack? Do they not feel like its important enough to address? Were these people involved in the hack using Anon resources, but not in the official capacity of Anon?
I want answers! And I want them 5 minutes ago!

i'm with extra credits on this one anon can do a lot of good but the psn attack w/ the theft of credit cards doesn't exactly align with their core principles like the things with the countries inhibiting freedom of their citizens. the psn attack was by that group of 3 hackers not anonymous

Don't forget that Spain is right now the poorest country in Europe (somewhere between 13 and 22 trillion dollars in debt), and if their economy collapses it will take Europe into an economic spiral downwards into the stone age unless they GET RID of the Euro and replace it with country-based currency. It's causing more harm economically in regards to inflation and depression than its helping with its simplicity.
right, rant is over, just wanted to put that out there.
I don't know.GHudston said:
But maybe, just maybe, and this is a stretch, I know, Anon isn't quite as leaderless as they want people to think. It's kind of hard to organize anything if everyone is just doing whatever the hell they want. In all likely hood, these men were the leaders of certain operations, not the group as a whole. If you've ever been involved in any group work, you probably have an idea of what I am talking about.
