Ok then, I have been somewhat skeptical of some of the youtube offerings,
purportedly from "Anonymous" (not to be confused with our dear co-creator here @ Water/goat). I refer to the hacker(s) who wears a Guy Fawkes mask and posts on youtube, threatening dire consequences to various corporate and pop media entities. Now there may, indeed, BE an REAL and legitimate "Anonymous" hacker, OR many who CAN and perhaps HAS taken out various businesses, etc-I'm pretty sure that it IS possible and there may well be a group working on that kind of stuff. THAT is NOT my issue, here. My issue is that there seems to be someone ELSE who has no skills at hacking, but who is making videos claims to be able to say, for example, shut down facebook and fox news. This was their claim last week. On Sat. 5, Nov. BUT here we are 8, Nov. And FOX and Facebook are still with us. SO my issue is - if you are a hacker wanna-be making idle threats is NOT impressive, its just annoying. And pointless. So I thought to myself WHO would do this? All I can come up with is a)a dumb kid trying to be cool or b)some arm of the government. I can't think of a rational reason they would-other than to discredit or draw out & "trap"the REAL Anonymous. But if that's the case the government Arm with the cyrptogram -like name,must be very worried. And seems to be being out-witted. Well that's part of "OWS", right-the gov. Is NOT working.
Ok-so fake anonymous' are/is stupid. that is all.
