Couldn't the goverment in greece just shut down the internet and leave Anon resourceless?
That would put them into so much shit that they'd better just do what Anon says. Also, it wouldn't accomplish anything.
If they shut down the internet, Anon live and are not hindered at all. It's just that Greece is now blacked out from the Net.

Furthermore, shutting down the internet, would be a huge amount of work. Basically, Greece should go to each ISP and demand them to stop working. Imagine there are suspected terrorists, who might not even be in your country, so your government goes to each and every food shop and tells them to stop working because they might be feeding the enemy.

Also, you know that huge amount of work - it would be against the law as well. The UN have stated (or suggested, I'm not sure) that the access to internet is a human right. And if the government takes it away would be an enormous offence.

And finally, the government would be sued so hard that I doubt any lawyer would dare say anything less than "My clients plead guilty and would like at least double the punishment you're thinking of." Businesses and people all rely in the Internet. Even the government does. So, no email, no world wide web, no Steam, no nothing. The population and Anon themselves would be
pissed.
