What happens when you put together thousands and thousands of creative, intelligent, and varied people on a community Web site with a broad scope and few rules? For starters, you get a massive exercise in group psychology and the meme concept put forth by Richard Dawkins. You get a factory for a majority of the Internet's fads, pastimes, and jokes. You get an amorphous antagonist of religious, industry, and political leaders. You get Anonymous.
Anonymous has received some attention recently for its cyber-attack on HBGary Federal security services and its threats and scattered actions against Koch Industries' Web sites and the Westboro Baptist Church. Anonymous has been called everything from activists to hackers (and, yes, hacktivists). They're viewed by some as folk heroes, by others as terrorists. But who are they?
Well, they're Anonymous. -
"Hackers, Online Terroists" and all that bad stuff.
Anonymous isn't an organization, neither is it reflected as a terrorism act. There is ideal hacking, and attacks involved but all for a main reason; Anonymous gather together and attack a target website (such as DoJ) as they took down MegaUpload in a corrupt way, therefore Anonymous did what they thought was right, same deal same actions.
Hacking for no reason is one thing, but doing it to create fair and equal rights is another. -

Nerds happen to be at the head controls of cyber warfare.tastylime50g wrote: »Who's cares about this "operation" being carried out by a bunch of powerless nerds. Here's a list of sites that have been shut down.
MegaUpload – Closed.
- FileServe – Closing does not sell premium.
- FileJungle – Deleting files. Locked in the U.S..
- UploadStation – Locked in the U.S..
- FileSonic – the news is arbitrary (under FBI investigation).
- VideoBB – Closed! would disappear soon.
- Uploaded – Banned U.S. and the FBI went after the owners who are gone.
- FilePost – Deleting all material (so will leave executables, pdfs, txts)
- Videoz – closed and locked in the countries affiliated with the USA.
- 4shared – Deleting files with copyright and waits in line at the FBI.
- MediaFire – Called to testify in the next 90 days and it will open doors pro FBI
-Org torrent – could vanish with everything within 30 days “he is under criminal investigation”
- Network Share mIRC – awaiting the decision of the case to continue or terminate Torrente everything.
- Koshiki – operating 100% Japan will not join the SOUP / PIPA
- Shienko Box – 100% working china / korea will not join the SOUP / PIPA
- ShareX BR – group UOL / BOL / iG say they will join the SOUP / PIPA
No one can do anything about it. -
I didn't say specifically referencing anonymous, nerds in general are the best equipped for cyber warfare, and considering how dependent most powerful countries are to the internet, I'd say that in time, hackers will become a very very major threat.tastylime50g wrote: »Cyber warfare?

Anonymous responds?
When the Egyptian Gov shut down their internet it was members of Anonymous who aided the out-put of streaming on-line news. Same as they did in the Occupy Wall St movement.
When a member was taken hostage in mexico to try deter them from fighting their corrupt cartels it was Anonymous who resolved the situation by threatening to expose the Emails showing corrupt figures in high places. Member was released soon after but the cost if the Emails had been publicized was too high to risk. The cartels threatened 10 deaths to every single person exposed. Anonymous exposed a world-wide pedophile ring recently.
These are just a small number of the deeds that have been silently carried out. Anonymous is not just a bunch of nerd hackers, investigate more before tarring people with the same brush. -

well thats strange, one of the first rules of Anon is "do not attack the press"...

Anonymous, now, is a joke. Anyone can claim to be Anonymous and their buddies respond with "ohmigod bro that's so kewl!1!!1!111!" Anonymous by definition is to be not identified by a name or specific characteristics. Ever since the media got a hold of this "secret club" its been dragged through the dirt and stomped on repeatedly. Any of you who are claiming to be Anonymous are clearly aspies who don't fit into any social groups outside of the computer. That is all.

how does a group of kids without an organization do an official thing?
every attack has to be approved of by the majority of high classed members before they can do anything. i.e. kid comes in, suggests a target, and then theres a vote. if it goes through, then they attack, but if you disagree with the attack...you can withhold from it...making it less effective.
OT:

The downside is all the groupies and hangers-on that claim to be something that they are not by wearing a mask or pinning an Anonymous flag on their bedroom wall.

Programmer Sentenced To Death In Iran For Upload Software
The Iranian Government has sentenced Saeed Malekpour, an Iranian-born web programmer living in Canada until his 2008 arrest, developed software for uploading images online, to death
According to AFP reports, the programmer, who was arrested by Iranian police when he entered the country to visit his terminally ill father, was sentenced to death in December 2010, but this was annulled after the Canadian Government stepped in to oppose the verdict.
The death sentence has now been re-instated amid protests by his supporters and international human rights watchdog Amnesty International, which said that Iran must not execute the web programmer, who was sentenced after one of his web programs was used to post ****ographic images without his knowledge.
According to civil liberties activist website, United For Iran, charges levied against the programmer include “Taking action against national security by designing and moderating adult content websites”; “Agitation against the regime”; “Contact with foreign entities”; “Insulting the sanctity of Islam” and “Insulting the Supreme Leader and President”. The site also claims that Malekpour was charged with the crime of Mofsed fel-Arz, or spreading corruption on Earth, a crime punishable by death.
After his 2008 arrest, Malekpour was allegedly held in solitary confinement for over a year where he was tortured into confessing to running **** sites. According to the Guardian, he later retracted his confession in a letter where he wrote “A large portion of my confession was extracted under pressure, physical and psychological torture, threats to myself and my family, and false promises of immediate release upon giving a false confession to whatever the interrogators dictated.”
Demands for release
“Once in October 2008,” he continued, “The interrogators stripped me while I was blindfolded and threatened to **** me with a bottle of water. While I remained blindfolded and handcuffed, several individuals armed with cables, batons, and their fists struck and punched me. At times, they would flog my head and neck. Such mistreatment was aimed at forcing me to write what the interrogators were dictating, and to compel me to play a role in front of the camera based on their scenarios.”
Amnesty International’s deputy director for the Middle East and North Africa, Ann Harrison said that the court’s decision comes as the regime is cracking down on bloggers and other Internet users. “By confirming Saeed Malekpour’s death sentence after an unfair trial, the Iranian authorities are sending a message to Iranians not to freely express their views, or even to help others to do so, including on the Internet,” Harrison said.
“The Supreme Court should have investigated the reports of Saeed Malekpour’s torture instead of confirming his sentence. If he is held solely for the peaceful exercise of his right to freedom of expression, he should be released immediately and unconditionally” she added.
“The government has officially acknowledged executing at least 31 people already this year, although Amnesty International has received information suggesting at least another 22 people were put to death. This would bring the total number of executions for 2012 to 53 people. Five of those executions were carried out in public,” said the watchdog in its statement, adding that more than 600 people were put to death in Iran throughout 2011. -
Well Natt what if it dosent be Fought from are chairs and people do really decide to take a stand and acctualy start a real war
there are wars happening all over the world all the time.
there has been ONE year since the first world war in which NO BRITISH servicemen//women were killed.
One year in one hundred years.
But the tactics are becoming more advanced, soldiers are a distraction from what is really going on behind the scenes...
