I don't really know a whole lot about Anonymous though; I had a
hard time taking any of it seriously., sorta like BitCoin. Or
even "The Cloud". Things come and go, trends, whatever. Old
things get new names, new promises, later broken, etc.
I guess not knowing much about who they are / what they do /
etc, outside of a few youtube videos and some friends that
associate with them, to me, it's a kind of fandom, like furries
but more political and a bit more L337 speak and stuff. Reminds
me a little of the Hax type fun I had in the early 90s on BBS',
although a few of them went on to do interesting things.
