Anonymous will take Facebook down Nov.5th

[Concord]

Facebook or anonymous?

Most likely won't happen...but would love to see it.

Won't happen. What will happen is the logging of the try to take it down. The FBI will be all over it. You will once again see Anon/LuLz being arrested and prosecuted from all parts of the world.

The feds and other countries aren't playing anymore. They are clearly going out and arresting people from living rooms around the world.

I get security updates weekly on these cybercrimes and arrests.

Let them try. I just want them arrested afterwards.

That was the first thought that crossed my mind .. even in the hacking world, announcing a specific date of attack is the real world equivalent of a bank robber saying, "We're going to rob the First National Bank on November 5th."

Of course this could be a disinformation tactic to divert attention away from their real target. It could also simply be a way to gain them attention without ever doing anything because the media loves doomsday scenarios (Y2K, May 21st earlier this year, 2012, etc.) and now, with a target date in hand, the media will cover the impending doom to the way of life for many people given Facebook's popularity.

You have to believe the media giants are already salivating over the gifted End-of-World story lines they can now work on for the next three months.

these gomers are really stupid; do they think they won't get caught sooner or later? When it happens, I guess they will find out that the real world is somewhat different then their basement.

 

[casmith07]

I find it appalling that people cheer these criminals on.

So do I.

LOL, Anon's Leader

Hopefully Twitter

That would be great too.

 

[zrinkill]

That would be great too.

Yea ....

And then they could attack college records and screw with kids futures.

Or maybe a hospital and mess up peoples medical records.

And you know what would be really funny? If they hacked the governments sex offenders data base ...... that would be a hoot if all those guys got a clean slate.

Why is this, "because I don't like it, no one else should have it" attitude prevalent? If you hate Facebook, Twitter, whatever, by all means avoid it. People put up stupid pictures and document their every ache and pain as it fills their time, who cares?

This pseudo Robin Hood act is old and stale. For anyone to pretend they're protecting the rights of strangers is a load. I'm sure paypal and ebay have more pertinent info than crap like Facebook and if anyone is really unwise enough to put up something so personal on Facebook, that's their problem.

If you stand up for what you claim to stand for, you're not afraid to make your identity public. Anonymous=Bull****.

That doesn't fit with their announced MO.

From what I read, they aren't even all on board with attacking Facebook.

And all those sorts of databases are probably backed up daily. Delete the tampered stuff and reload the latest backup.

It'd be a severe waste of time to do any of that. They claim to be anti-corruption, not anti-populace.

 

[zrinkill]

They claim to be anti-corruption, not anti-populace.

And armed robbers always claim they were never gonna really shoot anyone.

I do not trust the ethics of criminals.

Well there is still a paper trail, but yeah I see the potential for damage. Also, the sex offender registry is largely a joke in its present form.

They do?

I've never talked to any armed robbers.

I'd check those I hang with. Birds of a feather.

 

[zrinkill]

Birds of a feather.

Like cyber terrorist?

 

[Hoofbite]

Like cyber terrorist?

Yeah, the probably hang together as well.

I've never talked to one so I dunno for sure but I'd just guess that's the situation.

Dramatic much?

:laugh2:

They're not going to succeed at this...but if they did...good.

 

[CowboyMcCoy]

Most likely won't happen...but would love to see it.

I'm in the same boat..what are they going to do, delete my pictures? I absolutely never put any info in there that would be worth anyone taking, cept for an outdated phone number and a few pictures of me doing things on campus..

What does that give them? Maybe they know where I go to school and have my phone number...Oooooh Noohs.

But yeah, I do see the humor in myself...mostly because people use it to get internet attention...the "look at me crowd".

Sorry this just doesn't get my lather up like some here.

I have a Facebook and Twitter account...although I have never tweeted anything...but I did find the Bronx Zoo Cobra's tweets funny.

I just love the I'm eating a blueberry pancake right now...YUM...posts on Facebook.

Can't beat those.
