i don’t mean to be overly paranoid or accusatory toward anything that doesnt agree with me, but does anyone else feel like Anonymous is just America’s cyber-Wagner? a decade after their core ‘membership’ of highly skilled hacktivists were all vanned, they gone from focusing on American government and Wall Street institutions to exclusively targeting America’s enemies.
have the hacktivists like the hippies before them fallen in line with the empire they once stood up to because at their core they were never more than liberals, or does the US use freelance hackers to target cyber-soft-infrastructure like govt departments’ websites and do high profile propaganda stuff like spamming ukrainian/taiwanese flags? does the difference matter when the outcome is the same?
Some of it is probably just the US replacing their own spooks under the Anonymous banner. Some of it is probably we have you on X charge, work for us or go to jail.
i saw that episode of House of Cards
US cyber warriors found out they couldn't put on a Guy Fawkes mask and double as propaganda warriors
Anon tried to fuck with Libya during the war there. In so far as you can speak of Anon as a collective that does things on purpose they've been trying to influence various wars for at least a decade.
