I'm not so sure they actually love destruction.CM156 said:
They don't set the world on fire, just to watch it burn, which is what Chaotic Evil would do.
There's always some sort of goal, and reasoning behind it, even if one doesn't always agree with it.
Which is why they need to be smited. Really if they did something productive with their time, the world would be a better placegigastar said:
Are you being totally serious? Calling any one thing good or evil outside of religion, mythology and games is a bit ridiculous.Trezu said:
I have no idea what their agenda is, but I am growing in support of groups that oppose large corporations.
They certainly aren't the good guys. As others have said, they just go against people who they don't like, whether they're in the right or wrong. They don't care who they're annoying in the process. Personally I dislike them, and get sick of hearing about their silly denial of service attacks. Although, that said, the people who anger anonymous are just as idiotic.
Chaotic Neutral.
There's a reasoning behind everything they do, even if it's incomprehensible and inconsistent to anyone but themselves.
EDIT: Also, I like them. Most of the people and corporations I hear about them attacking deserved SOMETHING bad to come their way, though perhaps not what Anon was dishing out.

1)
The deliberate commission of an act of violence to create an emotional response through the suffering of the victims in the furtherance of a political or social agenda.
2)
Violence against civilians to achieve military or political objectives.
3)
A psychological strategy of war for gaining political or religious ends by deliberately creating a climate of fear among the population of a state.
Then add Cyber in front.
Basically, On-line Terrorism.
Whatever a persons opinion of what Anon does, calling it "Cyber terrorism" is vague at best.
The definitions of the word are either as strict as Terrorism, or as open as "Any computer crime involving a network".
Clearly, the latter is a fair bit too open.
Unlike me, humans (and other mortals) are neither good nor Evil.
They're neither morally black nor morally white. (This has nothing to do with skin color)
They're all just worthless and boring shades of gray.

I think that exposing companies like HBGary and taking down Westboro Baptist Church makes them undeniably good.
What people don't get about anonymous is they aren't good or evil. They're just anonymous. They may be powerful, but besides following a few general guidelines they have no specific side. They aren't one group, they are an amorphous mass of people and entities. Sometimes they're good, sometimes they aren't. Don't judge anonymous for any one thing it does.
EDIT: I mean, don't judge them at all, really.

i'd say they are like the little voice in the back of everyones head that no one wants to admit they have
Anonymous are just a bunch of bored teenagers. Generally socially inept (although, not all of them of course) and a bit cringeworthy. I agree with a few of their fights, but they also target innocent people simply "for the lulz". Trolling an internet forum is fine - but deliberately harrassing someone in real life, either through facebook etc., is simply unacceptable.
In my opinion, it's all shades of grey, you can't really define something as truly 'good' or 'evil', as it's all from the point of view of an individual. No doubt someone else has already posted something to this effect anyway~ Still, if you want to try and see the world in black and white, go ahead, it's your life, make your own opinions on stuff, etc etc - I guess you'll just have to avoid thinking about the morally confusing stuff though.
