There are anonymous posers. They won't threaten a random nobody. They are a hacktivist group. Though I've heard stories of them being just a bunch of ddos noobs.
People that DDOS, are just a bunch of power hungry nobodies. Anyone can get a $5 booter and smartsniff ip adresses, run around and scare people with their war cry. Anywho, I agree with how Anonymous works. Not that hacking is good but it isn't bad either when used for the right reasons. Atleast they give them.a heads-up before they take actions and they give them terms.
I say are Government isn't where it could or should be. But you must understand the stress and pressure they go through. All the bribes and failed assassinations not heard of are many. Though peaceful protest are fine... Dangerous or even life-threatening to civilians is not.
Remember, remember the 5th of November of gun powder treason and plot. I know of no reason why the gun powder treason should ever be forgot.
