Sparknotes:

Anonymous threated to boot FB from internet

FB dont give a shit

Anon announces the threat was the work of one single operative and was not official

FB still isnt broken

Now people are trolling the operatives house, he lives with his mother.

Anonymous is not an organization of people planning to take down targets. They are anonymous lol. People just want to attribute themselves saying that they are in an online horde of hackers. Most people who post those videos or say those things are complete /b/tards. There are definitely people who have the potential to take down facebook, a good example is how someone anonymously shut down the paypal website during the whole wikileaks event. That is extremely hard to do. Is there a secret group of hackers? no. By the way I have yet to see anyone fat wearing a guy fawkes mask outside a building

that guy probably has a normal bmi rating. Im arguing because anonymous is a very general term and it is used to describe what everyone thinks as one big group on the internet but its actually a bunch of groups of people all whom are idiots. People labeled anonymous have released documents and emails regarding corruption in Bank of America and many other noted businesses. Im calling you ignorant because you are one of the people who thinks there is a group of terrorists who claim to hack alot on the internet when there really isnt a serious group like that except for the #occupywallstreet anons. Its very confusing and probably over your head, i wouldnt expect you to understand.

ElGato is definitely right. They have done nothing

If paypal was shut down, that really doesn't accomplish anything. It probably wasnt shut down for long and didn't really affect anyone

Anonymous really hasn't done anything

Yeah you are an ignorant fuck if you think they haven't done anything. Hacking Ps3's servers. um yes... paypal.... um yes. And much much more.

But who is to say who "they" is

sorry im on a skiing forum and didnt realize i had to write a thesis and elaborate on my topic sentances. you seriously are the worst mod. I have watched you over the past few years i have been on the site and you are definitely the most negative member besides AR6Rider. I want to like you but it is just very hard and that is coming from a person who does more reading than posting. When the paypal site got shut down it was big news, hell my parents were talking about it. If i were a naiive investor (which are there are many, old people for example) and i heard that a company which i had money invested in had been hacked into, that means i could potentially lose that money and possibly more. The hackers had lists of all clients personal information and bank information.

I called you ignorant because you have a false understanding of "anonymous" . Like i said read my posts, i already addressed that anonymous is a broad term to describe many people. anonymous is a word to describe someone who wants their identity concealed. There are anonymous people on the internet who have done things like the BoA and Ps3 network. Not one big group of hackers who call themselves anonymous. There are people who pretend that this actually is the case like you see in the videos.

Swallow your pride you lost your argument a while ago you're digging yourself in deeper and deeper by the post. El Gato won. Then when you realized you lost the argument you called him on his character, a sure sign or a lost argument. Telling someone at the end of an argument "Well yeah, yeah!!!! Well i never liked you anyway so even though you won this argument i didn't like you before hand so now i don't like you more!"

Ok pal. Give up. What i got from your posts is,

-el gato is ignorant because he thinks anonymous hasn't done anything
- but they're not a real group or faction
- they brought down pay pal and they could bring down facebook.

the first and second points contradict eachother the second point contradicts any statement on the "group" because in your words "they are not real"

and hypothetically if they were they couldn't over run facebook and shut it down because if they tried a DDOS their servers could handle it because their servers are equipped to handle more internet traffic than google.

In the words of gene wilder portraying willy wonka in the film classic "WIlly WOnka and the Chocolate factory" YOU LOSE GOOD DAY SIR!

Sigh, Anonymous are a very secretive group that only talk in the very deepest realms of the internet. It consists of people who know what they're doing when it comes to pcs and security; mainly because a lot of them are employed/were employed in pc companies and corporations so they know their shit. Of course they aren't recognizable in everyday life or even on the internet; that's the whole point and hence the name. The real ones don't post videos on youtube even with fake accounts or w/e lol.

No, none of you guys no jack shit about anonymous, they also took down the BART polices website and released all of the names of the officers, because they shot that one girl or whatever, when syria, put security on all of there internet, anonymous took down that security, there is also much much more, basically everyone is this thread doesn't know what they're talking about, and they cancelled the drug cartel threat because, the drug cartel released there member back to them.

Kinda true...they cancelled the attack for a few reasons:

1.They got their guy back

2. They don't even know if he was really abducted by the cartel

3. The cartel was hiring a private security team to track down members of anon so they could kill them.

I'm sorry but I just don't think anon could stand a chance against one of the biggest drug cartels in the world. Alex Schlopy said it best, its like a squirt gun trying to take on an AK-47...

Anonymous helped to expose Scientology as a destructive cult and have its tax exempt religious status revoked. IMO that was pretty rad because I FUCKING HATE SCIENTOLOGY.
