Mainstream Media Looks At Anonymous

ScuttleMonkey writes "In an uncharacteristically accurate writeup of Anonymous, the Guardian has published a look at the assembled mob behind the mask. A great place to send those unfamiliar with who or what Anonymous really is. From the article: 'This collective identity belongs to no one in particular, but is at the disposal of anyone who knows its rules and knows how to apply them. Anonymous, the collective identity, is older than Anonymous, the hacktivist group – more to the point, I propose that the hacktivist group can be understood as an application of Anonymous, the collective identity.'"

Somehow I expected it to be posted Anonymously...

We are the Canadian Borg. Resistance would be impolite. Please wait to be assimilated. Pour l'assimilation en francais, veuillez appuyer le "2".

Re:We are anonymous

[Anonymous Coward]

Pay no attention to the man with the UID and the spelling problems, as he clearly is not anonymous.

I'm Synonymous. Exactly the same as Anonymous, just a different name.
