Anonymous Splinter Group Targeting Sony Executives

[slipknot4]

Proof that people in anonymous are childish bullies who have no lives. Anyone who supports them deserves none of my respect either.

I second that.
This isn't a matter of freedom, they are just internet terrorists whom think that they should back up George because he is a hacker too.

If Anon is willing to go after Judges, then why aren't they doing anything useful besides sending death threats to little kids?

I mean sure, going after someones wife and kids isn't exactly white knight, but they are at least attempting to threaten/coerce a judge. And that breaks so many laws that anyone involved will be in jail for a very long time if caught.

So why do multinational companies fk people over and Anon ignores them. Too hard for the channers to get their attention away from MW2 hacks.

We dont even want to mess with them but its possible to socially engineer the situation and get them to give us information about Mr Stringer, for example his cell phone number so we can ask him if he lieks mudkipz.

We? Let me guess, you're one of those people who jumps in the irc channel and tells everyone how awesome you are without actually doing anything. Anon is 80% useless, 18% "evil" (knows a little bit, enough to cause damage but they won't actually go after targets, just share cp around) and 2% 1337. Not even 2%, most of you are still using web browser based proxies.

With the same MAC addy. ^.^

Can you say, fucking retarded?

Really? I thought bounty hunting was illegal in the US. Sorry, might be cultural (Australian) bias bleeding through, but I thought the practice was scrapped in ... pretty much the entirety of 'the West' ... and most of 'the East' ...

This may surprise you, but take a moment to think about it and it won't.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounty_hunter

Bounty hunting is legal in two parts of the world according to wiki, one of them being the Republic of the Philippines and the other being the U.S.A.

U.S.A. citizens seem to enjoy violence, weaponry and breaking the law. Bounty hunting is perfect.

But yes, it is illegal in the rest of the world. Unfortunately.

You know, I'm all for free speech and everything like that. And personally, I think that Sony is in the wrong for causing a raucous about the rooting of their system in the first place. It's going to end up costing them much more money than whatever they'll lose by people choosing not to use the server that came with the console that they bought. It's bad publicity too. They'll be seen as a bully, greedy, and oppressive with their software. Not EVERYONE is going to root their PS3 system either. Many people are fine with the way it is.

Now, I do agree with capitalism and Sony's ability to be able to press charges against who they think will be a legitimate subject for their reign of terror. Doesn't mean I think they should though.

What I don't understand are these goobers who expect to get away with this hacking of the PS3 system calling themselves Anonymous. Yea, woohoo, you can hack the system. Now you're in more trouble than you'll ever care to be in for the rest of your life. Doing stupid things of that caliber for a videogame squabble is the real wonder here. Either you're going to have to hide really well, or they'll find you and lock you away for a serious amount of time. Neither of those options sound very enticing to me.

A real hero doesn't hide under a rock and throw dirty tricks from afar. Sony MAKES the PS3. If they didn't, you wouldn't have a console to argue about. So they also have a right to make the rules. Don't like 'em? Make your own console that can be easily rooted by anybody. But I have a feeling that once you do, your views might change.

Hi guys. My name is "heyguise" and I'm the administrator for the irc channel #sonyrecon (the one this article is about.) If you guys have any questions about what we are doing or the reasons for this I'd be more than glad to answer you.

But as Rebbeca black says 3:40pm waking up in the after noon...gotta have my bowl

It is spelt "afternoon" not "after noon"

Also don't really see how harassment is going to benefit public perception of gamers, geeks, nerds etc... as you could easily cross a line and end up with a nasty smear blitzkrieg against yourself

I can understand going after the Sony higher ups (Family seems a bit much), but taking down PSN only really hurts the people they claim to crusade for.
Your doing it wrong.
