"These people, Adam, they're like ghosts... always in the shadows."

Now if Anonymous could just move up from DDoS attacks to cybernetically augmented agents, that would be awesome.

Agreed. 'Anonymous' are really just criminals who use ID theft to fund their crimes. Calling themselves 'heroes' is insulting to anybody who works for a living.

They never harmed anyone physically. They just wreck parties, that's all.

Hmm... this whole situation is getting more interesting every time it pops up.

Anonymous has guts, I'll give them that, but this is only going to go badly for them. If the FBI wasn't taking them seriously before, I'm sure they're going to now.

Regardless of whether they believe they are in the right or not, they're going to get caught, and they're going to have to answer for everything they've done.

The FBI isn't a group to just let a pseudo-terrorist organization spit in their face and get away with it.

After reading some of these comments, I think most of you are misunderstanding what Anonymous is. They have no organization, they cannot be shut down. They can best be described as a mindset . It's like trying to stop a - bad example i know - terrorist organization. Just because you cut the head off the snake, doesn't mean there are not 1 million other snakes ready to take up the mantle. There are no leaders in a group where there is no organization. You could even become a member tomorrow by simply deciding you want to help.

IMO the best option is to leave it alone, and bust who you can when you find them. Going after them when they are in a "vegetative" state only inspires more dick-headery and leads to things like this.

Not that this is a bad thing, because this is all pretty hilarious.

I'm not a fan of the group but there is something entertaining about hacking the security firm trying to stop you.
Admittedly, that is pretty good.
Agreed, and while I dont care for their actions, and in no way support them, I have to applaud them.

As far as I am concerned I think it is hilarious that most people here have entirely missed the point of this attack. A private corporation has been mining for American Citizens personal information... AND THEN SELLING IT TO THE GOVT. Yet all those complaining about Anon seem to have over looked this and pointed straight to Anon as 'the bad guys'.

As far as I am concerned this has been a good show. If only more Americans and private citizens from around the world would stand up for themselves and their neutrality.

This company thought it found a way to make a name and money... instead they found a fight. Something tells me they will be changing direction soon enough.

What crimes, pray tell? Protesting against Scientology? Defending Wikileaks? Revealing a sham of a security company that is taking peoples private information and selling it to the FBI? What?

They aren't too good at what they do if they were too good they wouldn't of had to trick someone into giving them the password they would have been able to get it only through their programs.

for some reason, I read that and I instantly pictured Sam Fisher and both red and blue Third Echelons infiltrating into a facility and setting bombs into anonymous' main servers

also, you keep on taunting FBI

they might even create shodan just to take them down

jesus what the fuck is going on in my mind

I want Anonymous to be the global internet authority... they are fair, reasonable, and take no sides, just equality.

Best of all... they're not governed or goverment... they are everyday joes! :)

*grabs some more popcorn*

I'm squarely on Anon's side this time. They have done questionable things, to say the least, but this is just pure entertainment. This could be made in some sort of cheap movie, no problem.
