Anonymous announces its plan to destroy facebook

[William Dickbringer]

what stuff should be taken down? You know for safety just in case

this is my profile:
my old email address, a list of tv shows, a list of bands and my description 'if your reading this, fuck off because who the fuck cares?'
oh and that i'm left-wing. i think they might like that, what with the whole filesharing thing.
thats pretty much all you need, no addresses (if theyre your friends, why do they need to know where you live?)

ok then nothing worry about for me then

Wait what? That's weird why would a group called anonymous make a site named Google+.

*strokes beard, inquisitive brow raise* Indeed, 'tis ponderous...

 

[SimpleChimp]

I am actually quite miffed about this. I use it as a way to talk to all my buddies who are down range in afghanistan and iraq. It's a good way to keep in touch.

but atleast farmville will be hit aswell i spose.

 

[VondeVon]

This does somewhat tarnish their supposed reputation for 'righteous' hacking. Now they come off more as that guy at the pub who bashes people just because he can. :S

It's anonymous not lulsec, they don't do it for the lulz, they do it to keep information free.

 

[Tim Mazzola]

This is... weird. This doesn't sound like something Anonymous would do.

I'm not sure I agree with everything Anonymous does, but I really, really hope they pull this off. Facebook is idiotic. I am sick of hearing about it, and sick of never getting to do things with a certain group of friends I have because they only announce outings on Facebook.

In summary, good riddance Facebook, you idiotic bastard-child of forums and cellphones.

I don't have any personal info on Facebook except my name, and that's on the electoral register and in the phone book anyway. I barely use Facebook. I'm still waiting for the social networking backlash that I'm sure is going to happen eventually.

That said, why the hell try and take down Facebook? Okay, so the owners are prats but what purpose would it actually serve other than criminality? It maketh no sense.

 

[vashthblackseed]

Maybe they can kill twitter while they're at it.
*fingers crossed*

 

[enclsam]

Well I'm kind of hating all social networks. But where will I play Dragon age Legacy?(At least I hope if they succeed they will lay out all facebook games on web.Because that will be totally awesome.)

 

[Xannidel]

Why does this just sound like them needing attention? Guess we need to go visit the troll exhibit more often...

 

[Chasing-The-Light]

I hate Anonymous nothing more then a bunch of internet bullies and scum.

I agree... I don't really understand the point. -.- Just like I didn't understand Lulzsec (excuse the misspelling, if I have) hacking into somewhere like Bethesda Softworks, either.

 

[Davey Woo]

As long as they don't fuck around with my account/steal my details I don't care what they do. I only use Facebook to keep in touch with people I hardly ever see, so I guess I'd just see them even less...

 

[Coldster]

Sounds really serious. On a side note, did anyone else picture the Arbiter from Arby n the Chief speaking during their video? I for one will always associate him with Microsoft Mike and probably will for the rest of my life.

 

[Shakomaru]

I'm torn. Facebook is the only contact I have with most of my friends outside of school, but it is full of idiots. And I hate idiots. Especially human idiots.

 

[cryogeist]

hmmmm i made a FB account then deactivated it the next day
..i mght get fucked over although if their only target is the site and not the usesers then my emal might be fine

 

[Gxas]

If it happens, it happens. Whatever. I still have a Google+ invite pending, so I can just activate that.

 

[viranimus]

Well. This is about the best idea I have seen out of the freedomnetwork 1 year 3 phases campaign thus far and by far the most logical.

I wish Anon well in this endeavor because it is truly one of the steps that need to occur in order to Jostle the internet community out of unadulterated complacency. It also serves as perfect transition from phase one to phase 2. However, it is also the most dangerous thus far.

It needs to happen. Anonymity on the internet must be restored in order to restore its vitality. I wish it well, and hope it doesnt end in a complete catastrophe like I sense it will. Its a shame such great lengths must be gone to in order to fix problems created by the ignorant and complacent.

 

[The Cor]

Have they nothing better to do? That's all I can really think when I read about these folks.

Sadly some people who call themselves anonymous have nothing else to do, at least a certain core of anonymous consists of people who lack either a social life, a job or both.

Nothing is safe in a world where idiots live. So I might change some of my facebook info, as the paranoid chicken that I am, despite not really caring about facebook.
