Anonymous strikes back for Megaupload takedown

[TimmyDonuts]

Anonymous considers its members to be “hacktivists” using the internet to protest things the group believes are wrong. Past actions of the group have involved attacks on child-porn sites, as well as exposing high-profile people who maintained memberships with them.

What a load of shit. I guess Anonymous doesn't like competition when it comes to distributing child porn.

Everybody knows that Anonymous Image Boards are FLOODED with child pornography. They even cater to pedophiles. For example, 4ch@n freequently uses a banner that features the infamous pedobear, which basically proves the site's founder knows about the CP problem, and obvious he's ok with it.

Don't give me any of this white knight bullshit. Anonymous is the biggest threat to freedom on the internet. Why? Because law makers will use the CP problem on Anonymous Image chans to justify the destruction of our rights. If you support Anonymous, you're only helping kill the free internet. Not to mention supporting a community full of seething pedophiles.

The fact of the matter is that at least a quarter of the online tempers are reading this thread. This either expresses concern, humor, or an interest. This has nothing to with anything, except for SOPA. This would eventually happen. It's wrong though. For America to walk into another country, take down servers, wave their caps, and be proud is wrong. Anonymous simply did what anyone who supported megaupload would do- fight back. If A certain torrent hosting website hosted in the Netherlands (I think) were to be brought down, I'd be mad. I'm a white hat hacker though. This would be a grey hat scenario. It wasn't for financial gain, it was for proving a point. All it will do is push the American government father on controlling the internet. The next move will to remove anything to do with hacking, probably even open source. GBATemp could be affected. This is serious, and not something to be lightly looked upon. It will have a huge impact on the government's SOPA decision in February...

So..This went from being about Anon DDOSing sites, to Pedobear?

Wut?

Anyways, back on topic, it's just a giant game of cat and mouse. All this DDOSing is just pissing the (rather stupid) government off, and they'll do more things to piss of Anon, and the cycle never ends..

To me, Anon is really just a bunch of /b/ trolls that know how to use LOIC. They'll piss the American gov. off, then the gov. will piss Anon off, and so forth.

Anon is a giant troll that likes to piss people off by DDOSing. However, they piss people off because..
The whole fucking American Government is also a giant troll that want to piss you off by monitoring and restricting your every move.

Spoiler: You know, they should probably just change the American anthem to this. It makes sense

It doesn't matter. The Moderators will clean up any trash swept on this news. But the point is, what will they do next? This is going to tighten the belt on America. I hope someone makes the right choice.

If you disagree with an opinion, you can intelligently counter it with your own opinion without slinging the word "troll" around.

holy crap i made a funny comment on topic. the internet was changed and anonymous is upset. if it was off topic sorry, and if you want this gone delete it too.

ill restate what my post said. people don't like change. sorry to not contribute, i thought this was a forum.

 

[jrk190]

I noticed the slew of deleted posts. I'll do better to make sure i am not one of them. Does anybody know what measures that the government have for this kind of situation?

Sorry mate, obvious troll is obvious. When someone tries to convince me that "Cake" means "CP" when it quite obviously is used in a metaphore and one would have to be mentally impaired not to understand the conveyed meaning then there can only be two reasons for this: that person is trolling or that person is an idiot. I choose the latter option, as if this was a trolling attempt then it was poor. It's also entirely possible that I should be offended by his claims that perhaps I'm a child offender, that is, I would be if he were at least of relatively similar mental capacity. I'm generally hardly moved by people who are obviously a bit less "smart" then the rest of us.

As far as CP on chans is concerned, all I say is...

I'm sorry, VashTS. Given that there are 667 users reading this topic with comments popping up faster than I can screen them for off-topic content, unfortunately your post just got caught up in the wide net I had to cast. I'll restore your post, as it wasn't involved in the flaming.

The Cake is A Lie. The episode and debate over people trolling on this topic is over. Please discuss the current topic. I'm only saying this so that other people will not... Anyway, my friend and I were discussing this over the phone, and he was only mad because he paid to host important files, plus a few torrents. He had schoolwork there, so that our classmates could download it in an emergency. Now it's gone.

You're right Fox. Simply go to 4chan, find the section called /b/, and just wait for the next CP topic. I'm sure one will come along soon. Usually within the hour.

And hey, thanks again for sharing your opinion on the cake. Its good that your fellow users know what kind of person you are. At least you're being honest. Kudos for that.

Foxi, I read your posts on other threads and they're usually smart and backed with logic. I know you're capable of using intelligence to get your ideas across, which is why I did what I did.

I refuse to even try discussing with someone who's clearly not on the same level as I am. You know what they say about arguing with idiots - "They'll pull you down to their level and beat you with experience". Why should I even attempt an elaborate speech directed at someone who only has one argument and not really a whole lot to say. His only clear purpose is to piss people off, and that does not validate a proper response.

In any case, I suppose we've derailed the thread for long enough. I'll behave now, as I lost all interest in disputing with Mr.What's His Face.

Actually, (Feel free to remove this Costello, or Ninja, But I will make this on topic.) The cake was a portal reference. I actually have been ignoring your ignorance. Child Porn or not, this was not a White Hat Attack or Black Hat. There was no monetary gain, but it had no good intentions. Therefore, I am indifferent on what you think of This "group". I'm not going to say I support it, but I do think it is nice to see they are mad as well. This upsets us all.

I had no intentions of refferencing the Portal - what I said meant in Layman's terms that one cannot judge something without previously asserting that his judgement is correct. Another metaphores of this sort would be "don't judge the book by its cover". It does not mean that "book" is a symbol for bestiality - it has the implied meaning that you're supposed to judge the metaphorical book by its contents.

It just takes moderate understanding of language to understand that sort of thing, apparently not all people posess it.
