Anonymous threatens cyberwar with Anonymous Anonymous has threatened to start a cyberwar with Anonymous. The peculiar threat can be traced back to Edward Snowden, who among his many revelations has alleged that Australia and the USA spied on Indonesia during the 2007 United Nations climate change conference held on the island of Bali. Indonesia's government is, …
"Quite so. The sheer number of over-the-top shriekers and conspiracy theorists on both sides of the debate, but particularly among the AGW believers, only serve to move ever more of the sane people into the agnostic camp...." Too true, but the real fun bit is they think their shrieking is actual going to work! Too funny for words!
They should try something a bit more subtle. Think of it in terms of those crack-handed attempts at sex ed at school that were really little more than telling you your tool would turn green and drop off if you stuck it in an indecent number of holes. Did that ever stop anyone? It probably boosted the sales of condoms but it didn't stop my generation being promiscuous. When I was trying to point out the virtues of monogamy to my son I didn't show him pics of diseased members, I simply sat him down and let him watch the clever horror of "Fatal Attraction". He still can't eat rabbit even now but then he was only ten at the time.

Matty, you're even dumber than usual here. Hard to believe, but true ;-)
Traumatize a kid to achieve what? I don't aim to have my daughter (or son) be a slut, but I'd rather have either kick a few tires before getting settled. Buddy of mine's brother married the bitch from hell, mostly because she was his first and he dinna know any better.
Then again, I really don't think we'd have anything to say over a beer. Or coffee, if you're a teetotaler.
Dumb a** caricature of right wing stupidity. Just as annoying as the left wing version.
".....Traumatize a kid to achieve what?....." Oh dear, I forgot the majority of the sheeple need sarc tags for every joke. Just try and concentrate on the idea of a subtle moral tale as opposed to the typical "you're all doomed" shrieking of the AGW fanatic sheeple. Oh crap, someone please think of a way to explain "subtle" to the sheeple.....
Aw, is ickle lambkins sulking? Don't worry, if you ever grow up you might be lucky enough to leave the flock and actually find an adult capable of explaining it all to you. In the meantime, please do go join your woolly chums in shooting each other in the hooves and giving plenty of info to help the coppers identify you all.

Simon, the 2010 Indonesian census reported a total population of somewhat under 240 millions.
Originally Anonymous was the user community of 4Chan, and was just a shifting rabble which spent its days harassing tween girls. Today's Anonymous is made up of 70% libertarian morons who want to play revolution, 20% law enforcement agents pretending to be libertarian morons, and 10% political fringe activists looking to use Anonymous for their own ends.
The libertarian morons change, but the the fringe activists and the law enforcement agents are permanent and act as leaders. One could call it an organization. Personally I call it "Assange's Private Army".
Your statement is incorrect because your numbers add up to 100%, and the Venn diagram would show considerable overlap. I am sure that there are, for instance, significant numbers of law enforcement agents who are political fringe activists, either of the right or the hard left, and the overlap between libertarian morons and political fringe activists must be close to 100%.
You missed out "hormonally messed up aggressive young men who feel a sense of grievance", and I suspect that they form about 50%.
"Originally Anonymous was the user community of 4Chan" not true
Anonymous was the name used on western chat boards in place of the longer name that was used on Japanese chatboards that basically meant the same thing. There was only one board that enforced anonymous traditionally. So anonymous came from 2ch, as did the general mentality of large groups of nihilistic and generally intelligent people when removed from responsibility and real world sensibilities, they would all act like oinks and follow the fun where it went. Which makes you wonder what SA and Ebaums users excuses were...
Nowadays anon is not the same as the old anon, as the one of the main tenants was "not your personal army" of the main anon that everyone assumes is the only source of anon. People did shit they found funny, examples being, facebook raids when someone had dropped users and passwords on the internets and blocking pools in habbo as they had aids, sharing cat memes, making new cat memes and celebrating caturday. It probably got all moral faggy around the time of Hal Turner, but I'd grown up by then. and endless adorable cats and longcat vs tacgnol was no longer what I wanted to do at night.
Also, you meet them every day and know how annoying they are. For instance, it was hard in closing phases of WW2 for American soldiers to build up a lot of anti-German hatred because they hardly ever met them, usually having shelled and strafed them from a considerable distance. The Russians, on the other hand, knew exactly what the Germans were like from years of combat, which is why they didn't take a lot of prisoners.

And so it begins!
this is how the whole 'movement' will go, with no actual aims, strategy or ideas about what they want, all it takes is petty mistakes and interior disagreements to bring the whole thing down, the problem with anarchy is you can’t control it, as soon as you do it is no longer the same, all that is needed is for one section to make a stand against something that another supports and they will descend into splinter upon splinter upon splinter group.
That could just about describe almost any political party. Look at the Republicans and the British Conservatives; fundamentalist Christians, both protestant and catholic varieties, trying to stay in league with libertarians; paternalists trying to stay in league with people who don't believe in society; "economic liberals" trying to stay together with people who would like to use pork barrel to stay electable; isolationists trying to agree with interventionists. And all because they define themselves as "conservatives" meaning "I don't like change, unless it's me getting richer".
I haven't got enough time, patience or space to begin to do the same job for socialist parties.
The difference is that those parties agree (or at least attempt to) on a direction, aim, view point, or policy, they have an elected figure head who represents them to the rest of the public and is in charge of controlling (for want of a better word) the party/group/organisation to ensure that while they might have disagreements they stay on course to achieve the previously mentioned direction, aim, view point, or policy.
And if the elected figure head appears unable to find his arse with both hands and a fully automated arse-finding radar, and one part of his "party" is constantly trying to represent the current policy as being completely different from what another part thinks?
Basically you are describing the theory of the Fuehrerprinzip, but using lots of weasel words to indicate that in reality the ship is merely a flotilla which is more or less drifting with a current, that the person who thinks he's the admiral is merely in the most visible part of it, and that bits of it periodically collide with one another. The only difference from Anonymous is that, presumably, every supporter of Anonymous thinks he is going in the mainstream direction.
what is this?
So, Anonymous which, like al quaida, is a headless organization for the desperate has an Indonesian branch that decides to attack Australian companies for alleged misbehavior of the Australian government on one side and Anonymous Australia that is suggesting legit targets to their Indonesian counterparts on the other.
Now, how is this Anonymous attacking Anonymous ?????? there is no Anonymous, there are millions of Anonymous, some of which team up to fight for what they feel is a legit cause ... Anonymous Australia cannot attack Anonymous Indonesia ... for the simple fact that Anonymous is just a bunch of thousands/millions of DISTINCT hosts ..... Where is the elreg fuck up icon ?
BTW, have you hired the Daily Mail editor in chief or something ?????? I mean, seriously, you are trying headline over content ...
