[QUOTE=Marbalo;33902344]Depends on the people.[/QUOTE] But it is still theft, therefore against the law. I bet you would say otherwise if they had your credit card number.
They're getting loads of national attention these days, to think just a few years ago they were only getting stories on the dumbest local channels.
[QUOTE=ghosevil;33900467]You can't seriously think this "collective of hackers" are worth any attention? They publish a ton of overly dramatic and ultimately empty youtube threats, Then break into terribly designed infrastructures and exploit them for small gain and petty media coverage. "Real hackers" are invisible.[/QUOTE] If I was to hack something I'd say that I'm Anonymous as well, they're a great bunch to put the blame on.
[QUOTE=Maucer;33902174]Robin hood does not approve[/QUOTE] Afaik, the situation in fictional medieval england was slightly different. Don't quote me on this though.
[QUOTE=timman;33900795]Wow, stealing people's money and giving it to charity is not very charitable to the victims. It completely destroys the meaning of the word "charity."[/QUOTE] It's like Robin Hood.
[QUOTE=The Worm;33908673]It's like Robin Hood.[/QUOTE] The difference is that these people are probably not responsible for the poor suffering.
ask me if i give a fuck about basement fattys who think they're super heroes.
[QUOTE=Ryz0;33908818]ask me if i give a fuck about basement fattys who think they're super heroes.[/QUOTE] You will when you get your credit card stolen.
jokes on them, i don't have one
I don't get the point of this. It helps nothing. [editline]27th December 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Ryz0;33910429]jokes on them, i don't have one[/QUOTE] Is a matter of principle. They speak of a corrupted & greedy world yet they're the ones stealing credit cards
[QUOTE=Mr.T;33899366][B]AHA[/B]! Facepunch, what did I tell you? Anonymous [I]always[/I] succeeds in their operations.[/QUOTE] Oh yeah, like that time they took down Facebook.

Except when they catch pedophiles, that's an actual good thing they do.
I don't get why you guys hate them so much. Anon does some good things and props to them for donating the money to charity.
It's funny because Anonymous tries to compare itself with 1990s hacktivists. Please, don't make me laugh any harder.
They mis-spelled "Stratford" [QUOTE=semite;33932856]Please, don't make me laugh any harder.[/QUOTE] Fuck you don't tell me what to do

So, whos next on their Shit-list? I really fucking hope it isnt us.
