Hmm... looks like Jazzy Jeff may be a $cilon himself...
Interestingly, this is the first protest movement I've ever been a part of where serious consideration has been given to actually requesting police infiltration. (FWIW, I don't think it's at all a bad idea, under the circumstances).
Another couple of plus points in favour of the organisational side are coming out, too- firstly, as someone says in the thread, the nature of Anonymous means any threats TO Anonyomous (rather than to Cooper, or Magoo, or WBM) have to be made publicly... this is quite useful, really.
And secondly, watching the attempts by trolls and plants to hamper things online- for one thing, it's very difficult to troll "the Internet Hate Machine"... they're the ultimate trolls themselves (the only real threat in this sense comes from *channers who oppose the raids or who think a back-raid would be more lulzy)... and the memes are acting as a pretty good firewall- most of Anonymous speak this stuff like it's their first language. Anyone attempting to add authenticity to their baiting posts has a fairly high chance of fucking this up, by asking "how do I shoot web?" or addressing their "/B/rothers" (spot the mistake in that one). It's an extra layer of security.
(also relevant to that thread- if you're gonna go making threats, it's probably best to remember there are "hackers on steroids" in the area, who will have no hesitation in getting you v&). |
