I would imagine that given the lack of redundancy in terrorist systems, anonymous might actually really mess with their organizational capacity. Unless the below links outline a disturbing truth, because then ISIS has the best digital security the Mossad and CIA can put together. https://archive.org/stream/9-11CopB...e-IsraeliMossadInvolvementInAttacks_djvu.txtq http://www.serendipity.li/wot/swissreletter.htm1 http://www.mintpressnews.com/iraq-a...-and-israelis-held/203250/?desktop-version=on
They should catalog and publish a list of every liberal that supports the unchecked importation of possible terrorists. That way if something happens we know who to punish.
Don't be so sure. Do you know that the enemy also uses the open web to confuse and deceive? It's quite possible that our "illegal" friends are able to get dirty information that could lead to the capture(or death) of important enemy targets. As Stutnex showed us, the power of the web in our hands can also be a worthwhile tool.
Those are the risks you run when you depart from the state. Also, when you are a state. Whether Anonymous or the law is in the right is a matter of perspective, personally I see them as eccentric ((*)(*)(*)(*) off with the V for Vendetta circlejerking already), but hey - they get (*)(*)(*)(*) done. Can't argue with that. Are they always on the right side of every issue? (*)(*)(*)(*) no, they have very detestable views on net neutrality and other topics - but when they do good, they do it rather well, I'd have thought. This is one of those occasions. - - - Updated - - - I'd say it's more like Darth Vader turning back to the light side after a life of evil. Don't tell me you didn't feel a little sympathy for him at the end of ROTJ!
They do depend on technology to some degree. Their infrastructure including oil refineries is vulnerable, as are their electronically held funds. I think maybe we'll expect to see member's locations and other information revealed to expose them to attack. Unless they are using encrypted email Anonymous is already reading their communications.
Why do you think liberals are doing this? Would you like a list of the terrorist organisations your country has armed and supported-including by your conservative presidents? That way you'll know who to punish... Fair enough?

They are not really "Anonymous", I know one of them, his name is Tom Wright... ha ha ha ha.... Oh come on, do you really think that a "group" of guys who are unknown and not involved directly or indirectly with governmental agencies are the ones messing up with the secured system of other governments, private companies and individuals? And that the best espionage agencies cannot find them for years and years? My thought is that this "group" has been created by a government of group of governments, which are the real "anonymous" messing up with other governments, private companies and individuals. The play is to fake that "anonymous" also attacks the governments that created them. This way, they gain credibility and can operate freely around. In reality they are protected and receive help for better technology in their computers.
i'm sure the CIA and NSA and others know who these guys are and what they had for dinner... of course they know who you are and what you had for dinner too They might also use them now and then, who knows. TLAs (three letter agencies) don't reveal who and what they know unless it's necessary, however.
And their knowledge of the inner workings of the terrorist groups is limited at best. It's hard to get Muslims to turn against Muslims when they live in the very midst of them. Therefore, Humint is difficult at best. It took over 10 yrs. of 24/7 searching by the greatest Intelligence Service created to find Bin Laden and that hinged on water boarding one man who gave up a courier. Hollywood has made Intelligence look far more adept than they really are. Trust me.
