(od) Here or there or somewhere? Finding the Cleanup Crew After a Messy Hack Attack by Nicole Perlroth published Nytimes.com December 29, 2011 and in-print on December 30, 2011, on page B1 of the New York edition; regarding computer forensics and Mandiant. 99.109.125.85 (talk) 00:40, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Stratfor hack is much more than file copies, and their website only came back online Jan 12, 2012. From http://thehackernews.com/2012/01/stratfor-back-online-after-hack-with.html Chief Executive George Friedman said in a message to Stratfor's subscribers: "Early in the afternoon of Dec. 24, I was informed that our website had been hacked again. The hackers published a triumphant note on our homepage saying that credit card information had been stolen, that a large amount of email had been taken, and that four of our servers had been effectively destroyed along with data and backups." As to the post declaring that Anonymous didn't do the Stratfor hack, who is to know who is Anonymous and who isn't. That is an important point to be stressed. (To me Anonymous is more like a wave packet than anything else I can think of to describe it.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArishiaNishi (talk • contribs) 18:38, 12 January 2012 (UTC) oops, forgot my sig ArishiaNishi (talk) 18:40, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Blackouts

Under the Operation Blackout header, it's stated that Google shut down every service except its search engine. Can anyone confirm this? I'm fairly certain this didn't happen (although the censored Google logo and informative pages on SOPA/PIPA did). Musicaljelly (talk) 09:37, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Why was Operation BART section removed?

In August 2011, in response to Bay Area Rapid Transit's shutdown of cell phone service in an attempt to disconnect protesters from assembling non-violently in response to a police shooting, Anonymous sent out a mass email/fax bomb to BART personnel and organized multiple mass physical protests at the network's Civic Center station.[1]

Arrests

Would it be alright to expand the article to include more details on each time the members of Anonymous, AntiSec and Luzsec are taken into custody? This news article would be a good start: http://www.firstpost.com/tech/anonymous-case-hacker-sabu-was-an-fbi-plant-for-months-236968.html FF3TerraAndLocke (talk) 06:22, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unsubstantiated claims removed

I reverted recent edits by an anonymous user because they appear to be original research using sources that make no mention of Anonymous and one pastebin.com source which is itself a wholly unreliable source because anyone can create a pastebin file. The anonymous editor geolocates in Malaysia and has also added similar unsupported synthesis to Phobos-Grunt. -84user (talk) 15:04, 24 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Timeline of events involving Anonymous → Timeline of events associated with Anonymous – Anonymous is reported to be involved, but does know the group is "involved"? An alternative title might use reported, etc ... 99.181.147.96 (talk) 03:48, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support The occurrence of other groups claiming affiliation with Anonymous makes any claims of ours about "involvement" potentially dangerous. --BDD (talk) 19:47, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Declaration of Revolution

I've not heard of this organisation until a couple of days ago when I had an email purporting to be from them titled "Declaration of Revolution" and talking about an occupation of the UK Houses of Parliament and US Congress in December. If it is from them we need to add it to the timeline. Paul MacDermott (talk) 22:21, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This article is getting long, suggest breaking into years?

Suggest starting with new page for this year, Timeline of events associated with Anonymous#2012. 99.109.127.232 (talk) 22:54, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

independence hall tea party hack

As far as I know, whoever posted the admin username and password of the independence hall tea party sites never identified themselves as a member of Anonymous.

The source given for this section of the article doesn't quote anyone encouraging people to "Fuck shit up", nor does it mention Anonymous; it does mention 4chan, but Anonymous and 4chan are not one and the same. Homurssui (talk) 02:56, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I have removed that section as it was unsupported by the given cite. I would urge editors to properly follow WP:V and WP:RS. -84user (talk) 05:26, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
