Actually, they never would. GFY is probably the polar opposite of censorship and/or selling personal information.

That being said I think FB will be terribly difficult to take down. The amount of servers they have... the bandwidth they have access to... the ddos protection they already have in place... the amount of hack attempts they get on a daily basis...

Should be interesting to watch anyway :P

I think the last big one they did was against the Australian government for making small breasts in adult content illegal. I was totally in support of that one. This one... I'm not so sure. I think Facebook should disclose all of what they do and then it's all personal choice. If I choose to post there... I choose to post there.

dito


tall order - taking down facebook, but if they disable it for just 10 mins their credibility will skyrocket with everyone. imagine if they disable it for a day... EVERYONE will be talking about anonymous - EVERYONE

i wana see if they can do it

:thumbsup

Nice!

A bunch of dickheads now letting you know what websites you can and can't use because you're too dumb to make decisions for yourself.

This behavior/thinking is always at the core of the ideology and behavior of any oppressive government that ultimately takes power under the auspices of protecting those who are soo dumb, they can't take care of themselves and who eventually end up stripping everyone's rights away so they can maintain their grip on power.

Perfect.

Because you are so impossibly stupid, that it defies description. Maybe next is porn and your "soon to take over the interwebs" site yessignals.com or sleazydream.com will be the next target because some random group of idiots decided you're doing something wrong that they disagree with and that your 6 bookmarkers need to be made aware of. Would hate for your to see that last tiny trickle of traffic you have left to slip away because of some idiotic vigilantes.

:1orglaugh

I bet you have Facebook open in another tab, don't you? What are you going to do on Nov. 5th? You'd better find a good book. :1orglaugh

yeah, but it sucked for me and lots of other people that had no problem with Sony. Actually, I think Sony is awesome. So why do I need to put up with some hacker group's self-righteous bullshit?

i dont use facebook. whether I do or not has nothing to do with condoning someone hacking anothers site to make a political statement and to pointlessly flex some digital muscle before the police agencies of the world swoop in on them and arrest them - which is inevitable.

you can't claim to support freedom and freedom of speech and them support a bunch of 17 yr old idiots who want to shut people down because they disagree with them.

yes that's right

50 children who act like children.


We are not talking about a murderer of children. We are talking about a social networking website with over 600,000,000 users that will become inaccessible. either way, why do you think someone should be able to stand up and proclaim themselves judge, jury and executioner on your behalf? ... based on their own subjective and meandering and opportunistic sense of "right" and "wrong"

facebook is ruining the internet, it must be stopped

error :winkwink:
you doesn't seem to understand how works a ddoss.
A website with some many ressource is probably ddos proofed


addtionally you doesn't seem to understand what means revisionism

they don't really accomplish much though

so its just about ego, not like they will implant anyone in the facebook server team
nothing much will happen, maybe a successul ddos for awhile..that is it i am guessing

the "intent" is to make it inaccessible. happy now? or is this somehow becoming a technical conversation about hosting, firewalls and routers.

why, to punish breving ?

Sorry but there is anyway no chance to delete it.
and for me it is revisionism.

Also annoynymous used to support wikileaks, while wikileaks is for the freedom of speach.
Excuse me but censorship and revionnism is not written in the law and you can't just erase the past, while you consider in the same time that something happened.

(and to be frank if i want to make a bomb, i don't do like breivik, i do like him:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_bombing

it is much more efficient with 3 time less explosive)

Sony has pulled some stupid shit in the past and continues to do it. You don't care about Sony's policies and how they affect consumers so anonymous doesn't care that you are butthurt about not being able to play video games. You can either get over it or you can put your money into a different console. Your call.

Inevitable? :1orglaugh

Agree or disagree I do not think you people have any clue as to what hackers can do.

For years and years hackers that have an agenda are building an army of servers. Most the time people will never know there server is compromised.

A single hacker can break into 1 server and set ip an automatic script to own another 1,000. This one group alone has so many servers to there use they make facebook pothedic.

The amount of.ips and combined bandwidth don't forget about arp as well. Come nov 5 youbwill seer.more then Facebook go down you will see anyone hop that contains upstream bandeditj will go to shit as well for other people and datacenters.

no faceshit acct here :)

YEAH!!! I'm with you guys. FUCK FACEBOOK

You've just set a new record for the most typos in one post. Congratulations! :thumbsup

don't forget to bump this thread on november, 5

Busting Anonymous: Feds Arrest 14 Alleged PayPal Hackers, Two More
By Damon Poeter0digg


The U.S. Department of Justice on Tuesday confirmed the arrests of 16 individuals for alleged cyberattacks by FBI agents, including 14 on charges related to their alleged involvement in an attack on PayPal's website by the loosely affiliated prankster and hacktivist group Anonymous.

The DOJ said more than 35 search warrants were executed in the U.S. and that five additional arrests were made in Europe as part of a global investigation of "coordinated cyber attacks against major companies and organizations."
The 14 alleged members of Anonymous were arrested in Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, the District of Columbia, Florida, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico, and Ohio. The individuals were arrested on charges contained in an indictment unsealed Tuesday in a California federal court in San Jose.
Two others were arrested on similar charges in complaints filed in Florida and New Jersey, while Dutch police arrested four more people and British authorities arrested one individual for allegedly related cyber crimes, the DOJ statement said.

The 14 individuals named in the San Jose indictment have been charged with allegedly participating in Anonymous' distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks against PayPal's computer servers that began last December. Part of Anonymous' "Operation Payback" cyber attacks on credit card and payment companies, the attacks on PayPal were done in retribution for PayPal's suspension of WikiLeaks' PayPal accounts after WikiLeaks released classified U.S. State Department cables in November 2010.

The specific attacks on PayPal were dubbed "Operation Avenge Assange" within Anonymous circles, a reference to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, according to the San Jose indictment.

The individuals named in the San Jose indictment are: Christopher Wayne Cooper, 23, a.k.a. "Anthrophobic;" Joshua John Covelli, 26, a.k.a. "Absolem" and "Toxic;" Keith Wilson Downey, 26; Mercedes Renee Haefer, 20, a.k.a. "No" and "MMMM;" Donald Husband, 29, a.k.a. "Ananon;" Vincent Charles Kershaw, 27, a.k.a. "Trivette," "Triv," and "Reaper;" Ethan Miles, 33; James C. Murphy, 36; Drew Alan Phillips, 26, a.k.a. "Drew010;" Jeffrey Puglisi, 28, a.k.a. "Jeffer," "Jefferp," and "Ji;" Daniel Sullivan, 22; Tracy Ann Valenzuela, 42; and Christopher Quang Vo, 22. One indicted individual's name was withheld by the court.

You do understand that "anonymous" isn't a tight-knit group of hacker friends, right? It's more of a movement. There are literally thousands of them from many countries with varying skill levels. Some of the less careful participants are going to get caught but law enforcement has no chance of catching even a fraction of those involved.

i call bullshit. anonymous, like any other group, is a small collection of brains and a huge collection of stupid worker ants that have been convinced they are special, smart, and pulling off shit on the man. the 14 arrested are worker ants, no doubt, but will help to pin down the brains.

my personal guess is that anonymous is run by no more than 3 or 4 people total, but they play a lot of different characters online, making it look bigger. their worker ants are mostly kids under 18 and early university students. the ants dont realize the risk. the leaders are hiding and they certainly dont run loic on any of their own machines.

if you think anonymous is just some loose affiliation, you really missed the boat and fell for their bullshit. when it all comes out, the leadership will be small and they will be fucked in jail for the next 1000 years.

a group that want to create a movement.
Flies will move on when the shit will stop to smell.

Time will tell, won't it?

You do understand that individuals have to organize and coordinate the attack and they always get tracked down and arrested? You have no idea how many future arrests there will be.

You have no idea how many would be involved or what % of those involved will be arrested.

I think history has taught us that when you defy world governments to make an example out of you, they are going to eventually do just that.
:2 cents:

Neither do you. You can't see the future. If you can, I suggest you go buy a lottery ticket instead of trolling GFY.

One Big Brother telling us what another Big Brother can and can't do! Go figure...

I can see the past. The past is littered with hackers who do insanely irresponsible things, engage in criminal activity, get tracked down, get arrested, prosecuted, get convicted and go to jail.

:2 cents:

and many many times more that never ever got caught and never will :2 cents:

I'm quite certain you'll find that the probability of getting caught more often than not, corresponds directly to the scope and scale of the action.

:2 cents:

fuck facebook :)

Damn it we just broke 2k likes on our business page.

You have to be either supremely confident or stupid to telegraph your intended target so far in advance which makes me think they are either already inside facebook, it's a hoax or their real target November 5th is something else. :2 cents:

Honestly I'm pretty sure it's for publicity. The intent is to get the message out that Facebook is as anti-privacy as any site can get. Major media outlets are going to cover this story to death more and more as the date approaches.

Facebook's network can handle hundreds of millions of visitors a day, many of them mindlessly refreshing all day long. There's absolutely no way a disorganized network people with limited resources (comparatively speaking) are going to even cause a slight hiccup with Facebook's network.

Nah these guys are the robin hood of the internet, they only target crooked companies. Do the right thing and you will be fine. As for random script kiddies, just try to stay off their radar and hope they are not very good if they find you.
