Really? So who dies from cyber terrorism? Since when does the word "terror" mean only killing and murdering? Terrorism is the act of creating fear through threats and actions, which is exactly what Anonymous does on a regular basis. Or at least they try to. I don't think anyone really fears them at this point, most are probably just tired of their idiotic stunts which don't achieve anything except annoying the average people they claim to be standing up for.

Terrorism = creating fear? Well, they don't make me afraid. They also don't annoy me. In fact, they make me happy so I guess they are not the T word after all?

Obviously I didn't dumb down the definition enough for you to understand. It doesn't matter what you think. It's what the group's intentions are that determine what they are. Just because they suck at it, doesn't mean they can't be considered terrorists.

If you call Anon a terrorist group, you need to look at the world without the political correctness filter on for more than 10 seconds. There is no reason for you to support a hunt for Anon, because they have become the Rasputin of the 21st century, so if any sort of computer problems occur, somebody will blame it on Anon.
There are three sets of laws, one for the normal people, one for the celebrities, and one for corperations and governments. For instance, if a guy in New York gets caught with a couple ounces of Cocaine, he will probably go to jail for a few years, lose custody for his (if he has them) children and be fined. If CHARLIE SHEEN OR BRITNEY SPEARS gets caught with drugs, they do a few weeks in Community service and a bit in Rehab and are let back out. If a corperation has drugs, well... you wont know, because they will sue you to high h*ll and blame it on you if you happen to leak it.

They're just a group of 13 year olds who hack because they think they're saving the world. They're definitly not terroists of course, but i do think they are just young kids who think there hacks actually help change the world, when it does not. Nothing they have done has actually changed anything, but they tell themselves it does.

kind of ironic after today's press release of the plea deal a lulzsec higher up made with the D.A. and gave up alot of the anon leadership allowing them to be arrested while still pretending to be core and not 'working for the man'.

[citation][nom]jl0329[/nom]Bought a Vita for my gf as V-day gift. I will get myself another one as soon as they crack it or they make a white version (which ever comes earlier). Still playing Crisis core/FFVI on my psp from time to time.[/citation]
Really? You bought yourself Vita and then "gave" it to you're girlfriend, for her birthday? What a clod you are! Homer Simpson, "bought", Marge a bowling ball for her Birthday and she had an affair on him, for doing so. Looks like you may deserve the same treatment.

Whoops, I meant Valentines Day.

There should be some enforced law to make government officials or higher ups abide by so they dont abuse the system with there status.

Hum. "Black Flags" by ATR seems to be inspired by "Testify" by Rage Against The Machine. Check it out here: http/www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JSBhI_0at0

[citation][nom]Chef_Boyardee[/nom]If Anon are terrorists, what does that make the US/Allied military?[/citation]

an army.. whyblame a bunch of people who dont nessisaraly have a choice in the matter. blame those who sent them there not the ones who dont want to be there..

[citation][nom]badaxe2[/nom]Meanwhile another article states "Google fined $660,000 for making Google Maps free." What's even right and wrong anymore.[/citation]

What's morally right and wrong has nothing to do with what is "right" and "wrong" in terms of business and the markets. Keep in mind that Capitalism does not exist to help you or make your life better. The purpose of businesses is to make as much money as possible. So, there are certain rules that protect everyone's profits as much as possible against decisions like the one Google made.

It was the same thing with Microsoft when they integrated Internet Explorer into Windows. You could argue that they did that to offer more convenience to customers, but the competitors saw it as an attempt by Microsoft to "steal" their piece of the browser market, and of course the law was on their side.

I honestly don't care one way or another about Anonymous... They haven't hurt me or anyone I know.

However, by your own definition they are terrorists... They certainly use intimidation in the pursuit of political aims...

 

[pacioli]

Just because a word has a negative connotation does not mean that the word is not accurate.

For example, retarded is a word with a negative connotation... but that doesn't mean there are no such things as retarded people, and calling someone with mental or physical retardation by that word is certainly accurate.

I mean would I be unaccurate if I said we had a retarded cowboy as a president for eight years?

dumbasses.

[citation][nom]jackbling[/nom]......you know they aren't a group right? the "group" consist of anonymous participation in things someone(could be you) post online. People agree, people participate. Educate yourself, you have the tubes.[/citation]
They are a group, they just aren't completely organised.

Definition of a group:
A number of persons or things ranged or considered together as being related in some way.

All anonymous members are part of anonymous and all say that they are against corruption.
