so then why did you say just a few posts up that "nobody is tricked into it", yes they are, many people's computers are being hacked into and being used for attacks that they are unaware of. why did you deny it?

protesting is fine in my opinion, but hijacking people that have no interest in the protest, subjecting thousands of people to legal action and persecution that have nothing to do with it, that's just wrong.

If Anonymous wants to do something, they should do it based on a moral code, hijacking others for their cause is wrong. It negates their own cause by forcing others to do their bidding when they claim to be fighting for more individual freedoms.

If Anonymous can't even hold themselves to the same moral codes that they are trying to hold governments to, or businesses to, then why should we listen to them?

Oh forgive me me for trying to find a little common ground between us i wont bother again alex i have never claimed Anonymous to be saints as i said in my earlier post.
Your attitude isnt conducive to any continued debate your defensive insecuritys arent of interest to me anymore it is just become tiresome now.

The fact you see someone concede a little ground to try and open an avenue of discussion as a chance to attack is either low or really naive either way dont bother you really disappoint me.

bob, you are being ridiculous now. you are the definition of 1 step forward, 2 steps back.

You choose style over substance. I've seen your patronizing and demeaning posts to everyone that dares challenge you on anything. You act like you want to discuss serious issues, but the minute anyone challenges you, you act offended and revert back to being dismissive and patronizing.

It's unfortunate, because a lot of the issues you raise I am interested in.
