"... while pledging to hunt down every single supporter of the jihadist group online...

Achilles म्हणाले...: I actually approve. This is an important and interesting move for them. I wonder if one of their own was killed.

While I understand snark, you guys might want to celebrate this if they act on this.; १६/११/१५, ९:५५ PM
Quaestor म्हणाले...: If Anonymous were composed of men with real skills instead of juiced up adolescents with skillz, they would just get on with their operations with as much secrecy as they could muster instead of boasting on Youtube behind absurd masks. The typical Anonymous wanker is a techno-savvy silverback who from time to time likes to beat his chest in the vain hope he'll finally score with a chick whose waist measurements are actually smaller than his.; १६/११/१५, ९:५६ PM

bleh म्हणाले...: Sounds good in theory, but Anonymous is liable to falsely accuse some people of being terrorists and then deny responsibility for their mistakes because, aw shucks, they are just a hacker collective. They are quite reckless.; १६/११/१५, १०:३० PM

Smart people won't submit to the drug testing, background checks, stultifying atmosphere and other insults endured by a person who works for them. Same holds for the military contractors, so don't sell China stock short.; १६/११/१५, १०:३२ PM
Shawn Levasseur म्हणाले...: This is nothing new for Anonymous. After the Charlie Hedbo attacks, they made a similar annoucement.

pious agnostic म्हणाले...: Hey, I approve of the Army of Davids approach. If they can do something useful, then I say go do it.

They remind me of those gangsters in old war movies. Sure, they're a bunch of murdering criminals, but they were Americans, dammit, and weren't gonna let no Nazi scum get away with nuttin' in their city.

We'll see. Or, we probably won't.; १७/११/१५, ५:५१ PM
