Anonymous just like mist Americans don't believe in sourcing your information on history. I mean they were there to see moors as white people. Maybe Anonymous can time travel.
The problem with trying to pin down Anonymous is that it’s not REALLY an organized group. There is a core of high level hackers that interact with one another, but it’s closer to a movement than a singular organization.
a core ? are you even on the IRC rooms ? hackers are a very small part of most ops everyone has skills to offer in most ops. And as for the hacking most ops use well know vulnerabilities known as CVEs no real pentesting needs to be done in most cases. You cant track down anon because we are all anon, No one face runs anon its a social movement

Local AQMD requires 6 or more people during off hours to call before they will dispatch an inspector. A lighter than daytime crew, large area to cover and contributions to local politicians and school district prevent any meaningful investigation. Most offgassing is done after business hours. The smelter is directly adjacent to a junior high school. An indoor gymnasium was even constructed with donations from the foundry. The odor is strongly metallic and slightly chlorinated. I have canvassed the area and neighbors report the issue when asked, but not really motivated to call or too busy to notice. Complacency is what this company is depending on to continue operating.

@@DoubleStandardGaming crashing implies it has stopped working completely. Overloading it through a ddos attack isn't strictly crashing it, it's just decreasingly the likelihood of authentic data being processed.
@@AnEntityBrowsingYTthat is true, but at some point like if only 10% of the processed data is legitimate, and, or, its users have problems its a crash. Todays ddos attacks are more sophisticated tho, and so are the counter measures. Its an ongoing battle for both sides.
In computing, a crash, or system crash, occurs when a computer program such as a software application or an operating system stops functioning properly. So, a successful DDoS attack does leads to a crash. And nowadays it is not so hard if you have money to do it, there are giant farms made for you to rent and attack an specific target with more than 100 million requests per second
@@JAODc-fo9gf Well i guess that depends on your definition of 'properly' The system is still functioning, it is processing each request just as it was programmed to do. So I'll hold true to my original comment, A DDoS attack doesn't necessarily mean a service has crashed.
I used to be part of Anonymous while ago. We were a movement that was structured by a process, we were never an organisation. I still don't know anyone by names, we all used username, P2P channels, we had to collaborate on tasks that we believe they helped humanity in general and that was the only common thing. We voted on many things to avoid any bias in many decisions and that's pretty much it from my experience. I used to be part of operations in WikiLeaks about the Arab spring, the Israeli occupation, and US elections.
I don"t know if you are lying, or if you were lied to, but there is no "process" inside anonymous or anything like that. Anonymous is a descentralized movement, the groups that call themselves anonymous can have a process and even a hierarchy, but they are only a part of the movement, there was lots of well know groups that called themselves anonymous, some good, others not so much, and there always will be since anyone can say "I am an anonymous". Nowadays, most people who calls themselves anonymous is just a script kid, lammer, or a troll. Big groups who make large data breaches and use the name anonymous do that because it is a great marketing strategy, and it is no secret to anyone, after all, if your company is being attacked by a group who call themselves anonymous and you are not an expert, you are most likely to pay what they are charging you, because it is a "group" that you know that have made great things before. But probably it is not event them who are attacking you, and just a bunch of indians making scams in small companies
Hey, how did you do this? could you point me towards some helpful resources to learn hacking for the same purpose?

Same, except even earlier. The days of when AOL was the main gateway that the average person had for getting onto the internet and broadband was right on the cusp of becoming widely available, were wild as hell, truly the wild west times.
@@Stryke_Gently I’m sure there are a some that would, but back then it was more common even among the lesser skilled people. From pirating to basically running IT in corporates, these were normal things then.
Yeah, but I thin that's the point, right? That it goes two ways: Governments can't expect that people will protest using only the "authorized methods," and protesters can't expect that protesting outside of authorized ways will results in anything less than arrest.
@@andrewnavarro1185 I mean only if those being protested don't capitulate, and then choose to use force to subjugate. I mean it doesn't HAVE to be that way, the way you're suggesting. But a protest is, be definition, not authorized. So if a protest is authorized, it is not a protest. Sort of a tautological thing, ya know.
@@SpencerRoberg Protests can definitely be legally authorized and still be protests. There are legal and illegal versions of strikes and marches, and there are consequences for the illegal ones. It DOES have to be that way unless we vote to change those laws, because laws are required to be enforced.
Anonymous is full of skids and always have been. They did basic attacks and always had. They weren't hackers but more of people who use hacking tools that were so basic but effective because the lack of security back in the day, they didn't create exploits/tools etc like an actual experienced hacker/pentester or lived up to their hype. Btw you sound cringey saying that just glazing anonymous
Wrong. Nobody is in Anonymous, and everyone is in Anonymous. It's NOT a group with members. Some rando calls out something, enough people agree and pass it on, making the round until enough people capable of taking action get wind of it. "We are Anonymous" is a call to action more than anything. Now you're Anonymous, now you're not. That's why enforcement will never be able to "catch everyone". They mostly catch individuals or small groups of friends that aligned behind a shared thought ideal. It's called a Stand Alone Complex. =)
Nobody likes a snitch... Said no1 ever. Unless they went through some other unfortunate things but I am not about this life.This is ppl too intricate & patient for me. So, In short they snitched on each other & 1 side got locked up & the other whole 1 went and worked for the man? That should turn out great. Sounds like a movie.
If your car was stolen and the insurance company found out you didn't lock your doors and left the keys in the car. They would deny payment because in their eyes there was no crime. Same goes with security online. If you don't secure your online footprint then it's not a crime to get it. Also governments shouldn't be allowed to make things secret. It's become out of control how they put top secret on everything now.
Yeah its pretty wild that Assange was put in jail and Snowden is still wanted because they wanted to show the people where the money they pay to be slaves goes to... They are freedom fighters with those actions not terrorists!
That is not the real Bio, I can almost guarantee that it's a stand-in for what was a text interview or POSSIBLY a conversation over telephone (but I doubt it).
@@DiscoPornoSatan I agree, DiscoPornoSatan. That was my second thought. You would have to br incredibly dumb to show yourself in that way and where you are (wherever that bridge is), so it wouldn't make sense for someone who's truly wanted to out themselves like that. Why they didn't go for just reading what he wrote, but instead wanting someone to appear on camera is just dumb. Sure it's better if you can hear the person themselves, but if it's not that person themselves, it's stoopid.

I happened to be one of the few people walking past Anonymous’ first gathering, a protest outside a Scientology center in Portland, like 20 years ago. My mother stopped and talked with the one guy there who wasn’t wearing a mask, a former prominent Scientologist. It’s crazy I had something to do with a turning point in history.
@@TheMrleeyang honestly, it’s strange you’d react with such animosity. It would seem you subconsciously connote some sort of inherent worth to someone who would witness what I did, which is even more strange, because I certainly didn’t imply that. It’s a weird thing to be jealous of. I’m sure there’s plenty of things you’re good at, so there’s no reason to react like that. Maybe seeing a therapist would be good, especially if you think speaking like that is normal or appropriate.

It's always fascinating to delve into the origins of significant movements and groups, especially in the digital age. Anonymous has certainly had a huge impact on the landscape of online activism and digital culture. Exploring their beginnings not only gives us a clearer understanding of their motives and actions but also offers a unique perspective on the evolution of internet communities and cyber activism. It's intriguing to see how groups like these have shaped the dialogue around digital privacy and freedom of speech. What an engaging and thought-provoking topic!
I was in my elementary school days when Anonymous was big. I remember being intrigued by their mission and collective strength at a young age. To me, the Anonymous collective is synonymous with online childhood memories and the days before UA-cam and Google became blatantly flooded with advertisements and censorship.

Why? If they hacked into your computer and exposed your life would you feel the same? They exposed serious state secrets, that's why they are called secrets. If they hack into a criminal org. it's fine with me, but who are these young kids to determine who needs hacking?
@@sniferlip because the state shouldn't have secrets. In a democracy, everyone should be equal and share the same knowledge. No one group or individual, whether government or the wealthy, should have power over everyone else.
@@sniferlipSo you trust the NSA with all your data but the other way around is too much? Do you remember the war crimes that were uncovered with these leaks? People risk jail just to reveal the horrors executed by the state.
Anonymous is anyone who truly cares about freedom in my opinion. That doesn't mean you have to actively participate in their campaigns, just being a supporter is enough. They wont find them because it could be any/all of of us.
The thing about the FBI letting Stratfor get hacked... it's a valid point. The other side of the coin is that if they had prevented the hack, then fewer Anonymous members would have been vulnerable to prosecution... which, realistically, means that they (Anonymous members) would have wandered off and found another target. Or come back at Stratfor some other time. So, as the saying goes, the FBI gave the Anonymous members enough rope to hang themselves. I'm no cheerleader for many of the things the FBI has done, but from their perspective, the Stratfor thing was a rational decision. Ultimately, the question in this type of situation is whether or not society wants police to be able to take action on someone they *think* is going to do something, or do we want the police to wait until someone has *actually* done that thing?
Meeting the FBI spy at a bar to confirm that anonymous are, in fact, anonymous, is brilliant.

A DDoS attack doesn't necessarily crash a service, it simply floods it with noisy data so that the service cannot process legitimate data
So essentially it "crashes" the service, what you just described lol. Its in the name. Denial of service.
@@DoubleStandardGaming crashing implies it has stopped working completely. Overloading it through a ddos attack isn't strictly crashing it, it's just decreasingly the likelihood of authentic data being processed.
@@AnEntityBrowsingYTthat is true, but at some point like if only 10% of the processed data is legitimate, and, or, its users have problems its a crash. Todays ddos attacks are more sophisticated tho, and so are the counter measures. Its an ongoing battle for both sides.
In computing, a crash, or system crash, occurs when a computer program such as a software application or an operating system stops functioning properly. So, a successful DDoS attack does leads to a crash. And nowadays it is not so hard if you have money to do it, there are giant farms made for you to rent and attack an specific target with more than 100 million requests per second
@@JAODc-fo9gf Well i guess that depends on your definition of 'properly'
The system is still functioning, it is processing each request just as it was programmed to do. So I'll hold true to my original comment, A DDoS attack doesn't necessarily mean a service has crashed.
That fine line between genius and insanity...
We need a part 2!
It’s here kid thanks for ur ssc
it’s ironic @7:16 he says Stealing and breaching isn’t a way to go about something but this whole nation is built on that 🤦🏾♂️
Yeah a very messed up world we live in, with many ironies. Same as arresting drug dealers, yet the Gubment is the biggest drug peddlers around.
As is every other nation ever.
I used to be part of Anonymous while ago. We were a movement that was structured by a process, we were never an organisation. I still don't know anyone by names, we all used username, P2P channels, we had to collaborate on tasks that we believe they helped humanity in general and that was the only common thing. We voted on many things to avoid any bias in many decisions and that's pretty much it from my experience. I used to be part of operations in WikiLeaks about the Arab spring, the Israeli occupation, and US elections.
Thank you❤❤❤❤ you are being a voice for the voiceless and helping fight back against oppression
Oh you were? What was your handle back then?
I dunno if you remember me…
LMFAOOOO
I don"t know if you are lying, or if you were lied to, but there is no "process" inside anonymous or anything like that. Anonymous is a descentralized movement, the groups that call themselves anonymous can have a process and even a hierarchy, but they are only a part of the movement, there was lots of well know groups that called themselves anonymous, some good, others not so much, and there always will be since anyone can say "I am an anonymous". Nowadays, most people who calls themselves anonymous is just a script kid, lammer, or a troll. Big groups who make large data breaches and use the name anonymous do that because it is a great marketing strategy, and it is no secret to anyone, after all, if your company is being attacked by a group who call themselves anonymous and you are not an expert, you are most likely to pay what they are charging you, because it is a "group" that you know that have made great things before. But probably it is not event them who are attacking you, and just a bunch of indians making scams in small companies
We need a report for Julian Assange..
He's probably dead now, unfortunately.
And most people won't even know who he was nor what he did
no he's not dead, iirc Australia recently turned in his favor
@@CockatooDude he isnt dead but he is in a very bad mental state
He's in jail in the UK, his wife, and 2 little kids still in London, all scared he will be extradited to the US, which would be very bad for him.
These guys are the ones made me in love with IT and ended up learning Cybersecurity ❤
Hey, how did you do this? could you point me towards some helpful resources to learn hacking for the same purpose? I want to strengthen defenses of our country by trying to stop scammer types from praying on the UKs elderly, one of my friends grandfathers took his own life after being scammed his money in some manner.
I'd be starting from the ground up so even if some site linked me to resources I could use would be excellent.
Thanks :)
15:08 Sabu single handedly set back social progress. By getting Jeremy caught.
2007-2014 IT was wild
Kids today wouldn’t believe the things we did in our teens/early 20s 😂😂
Likewise 98-200X
Same, except even earlier. The days of when AOL was the main gateway that the average person had for getting onto the internet and broadband was right on the cusp of becoming widely available, were wild as hell, truly the wild west times.
Casual. It’s only gotten wilder. Kids today would run circles around you.
@Alan-gy9ws maybe you because you have a one month account but kids in the early 00's had some skills also
@@Stryke_Gently I’m sure there are a some that would, but back then it was more common even among the lesser skilled people. From pirating to basically running IT in corporates, these were normal things then.

Simple answer, anonymous isn't one group. It's a lot of groups and people with similar ideals.
it's such a good tactic, another group called ALF does the same where if you have the same ideology, you're a part of them.
music balance is too loud for how quiet these interviews are
There's a difference between a hacker and a terrorist.
An "authorized protest" is not a protest, lol.
Yeah, but I thin that's the point, right? That it goes two ways:
Governments can't expect that people will protest using only the "authorized methods," and protesters can't expect that protesting outside of authorized ways will results in anything less than arrest.
@@andrewnavarro1185 I mean only if those being protested don't capitulate, and then choose to use force to subjugate. I mean it doesn't HAVE to be that way, the way you're suggesting. But a protest is, be definition, not authorized. So if a protest is authorized, it is not a protest. Sort of a tautological thing, ya know.
@@SpencerRoberg Protests can definitely be legally authorized and still be protests. There are legal and illegal versions of strikes and marches, and there are consequences for the illegal ones. It DOES have to be that way unless we vote to change those laws, because laws are required to be enforced.
@andrewnavarro1185 Wrong this isnt 1930s Germany.
"The 90's called and it wants it's fkn security vulnerabilities back" hahahah

Is it an idea to put the original publication date of these docs in the title? I feel it's essential.
Anonymous isn’t an entity. It is a collective.
Wow so powerful dude 😮😱
A collective of virgins maybe lol
Anonymous is full of skids and always have been. They did basic attacks and always had. They weren't hackers but more of people who use hacking tools that were so basic but effective because the lack of security back in the day, they didn't create exploits/tools etc like an actual experienced hacker/pentester or lived up to their hype. Btw you sound cringey saying that just glazing anonymous

@@Marco-wz3pz It's funny, yet sad how idiots like you continue to portray tech-minded people as wimpy. Your insecurities are showing. 😭😂
We do not forget.
if youre in anonymous, you never tell anyone that youre in anonymous
Wrong. Nobody is in Anonymous, and everyone is in Anonymous. It's NOT a group with members. Some rando calls out something, enough people agree and pass it on, making the round until enough people capable of taking action get wind of it. "We are Anonymous" is a call to action more than anything. Now you're Anonymous, now you're not. That's why enforcement will never be able to "catch everyone". They mostly catch individuals or small groups of friends that aligned behind a shared thought ideal.
It's called a Stand Alone Complex. =)

Nobody likes a snitch... Said no1 ever. Unless they went through some other unfortunate things but I am not about this life.This is ppl too intricate & patient for me. So, In short they snitched on each other & 1 side got locked up & the other whole 1 went and worked for the man? That should turn out great. Sounds like a movie.
Note: Anonymous is not a group but rather a movement
If your car was stolen and the insurance company found out you didn't lock your doors and left the keys in the car. They would deny payment because in their eyes there was no crime. Same goes with security online. If you don't secure your online footprint then it's not a crime to get it. Also governments shouldn't be allowed to make things secret. It's become out of control how they put top secret on everything now.
Yeah its pretty wild that Assange was put in jail and Snowden is still wanted because they wanted to show the people where the money they pay to be slaves goes to... They are freedom fighters with those actions not terrorists!

That is not the real Bio, I can almost guarantee that it's a stand-in for what was a text interview or POSSIBLY a conversation over telephone (but I doubt it).

I agree, DiscoPornoSatan.
That was my second thought. You would have to br incredibly dumb to show yourself in that way and where you are (wherever that bridge is), so it wouldn't make sense for someone who's truly wanted to out themselves like that.
Why they didn't go for just reading what he wrote, but instead wanting someone to appear on camera is just dumb. Sure it's better if you can hear the person themselves, but if it's not that person themselves, it's stoopid.

I happened to be one of the few people walking past Anonymous’ first gathering, a protest outside a Scientology center in Portland, like 20 years ago. My mother stopped and talked with the one guy there who wasn’t wearing a mask, a former prominent Scientologist. It’s crazy I had something to do with a turning point in history.
Erm, no you do not have anything to do with that. Stop overinflating your ego.
@@TheMrleeyang? Because I was a witness?
@@TheMrleeyang honestly, it’s strange you’d react with such animosity. It would seem you subconsciously connote some sort of inherent worth to someone who would witness what I did, which is even more strange, because I certainly didn’t imply that. It’s a weird thing to be jealous of. I’m sure there’s plenty of things you’re good at, so there’s no reason to react like that. Maybe seeing a therapist would be good, especially if you think speaking like that is normal or appropriate.

Good stuff!
Hat-Tip to the hackers out there fighting the good fight
been waiting for this one
Shawn Henry recommends legal avenues of cyber protesting. I've tried protesting a local smelter and raising awareness to the danger of toxic metal fumes and Ring, the doorbell camera company, took down my posts and wrote that their service was not to be used for political purposes. Public Health should never be political.
RIP Aaron Swartz❤️

It's always fascinating to delve into the origins of significant movements and groups, especially in the digital age. Anonymous has certainly had a huge impact on the landscape of online activism and digital culture. Exploring their beginnings not only gives us a clearer understanding of their motives and actions but also offers a unique perspective on the evolution of internet communities and cyber activism. It's intriguing to see how groups like these have shaped the dialogue around digital privacy and freedom of speech. What an engaging and thought-provoking topic!
I wish I had one of these as a friend. Just clever people wish I could learn more obviously for the good but do as a career
Don't forget that this is a re-upload. Vice hasn't put out content this good in years
Anonymous is anyone anywhere and thats the power of it. if you understand
he’s all of us
"theres nothing more dangerous than a bored hacker" *nerd emoji* ahhh
I was in my elementary school days when Anonymous was big. I remember being intrigued by their mission and collective strength at a young age. To me, the Anonymous collective is synonymous with online childhood memories and the days before UA-cam and Google became blatantly flooded with advertisements and censorship.
Glad it invokes good memories for you
yea well the name got co opted by a leftist mob defending assange, who broke hacker code revealing personal info.
ANONYMOUS IS AN IDEA, WE HAVE NO LEADERS NOR IS THERE ONE SPECIFIC FOUNDER
It was never an organized group, by it's nature and namesake anyone could be anonymous. It's potentially everyone.

Why? If they hacked into your computer and exposed your life would you feel the same? They exposed serious state secrets, that's why they are called secrets. If they hack into a criminal org. it's fine with me, but who are these young kids to determine who needs hacking?
@@sniferlip because the state shouldn't have secrets. In a democracy, everyone should be equal and share the same knowledge. No one group or individual, whether government or the wealthy, should have power over everyone else.

Anonymous is anyone who truly cares about freedom in my opinion. That doesn't mean you have to actively participate in their campaigns, just being a supporter is enough. They wont find them because it could be any/all of of us.
When You arrest someone, you create someone.

Didnt Vice aready drop this epi years ago or am I buggin?
Thanks vice for keeping the public informed on current issues like anonymous
'authorized ways to protest' come on!
you're not the only one who caught that!
Maybe they'll be back this summer 🤔
The thing about the FBI letting Stratfor get hacked... it's a valid point. The other side of the coin is that if they had prevented the hack, then fewer Anonymous members would have been vulnerable to prosecution... which, realistically, means that they (Anonymous members) would have wandered off and found another target. Or come back at Stratfor some other time. So, as the saying goes, the FBI gave the Anonymous members enough rope to hang themselves. I'm no cheerleader for many of the things the FBI has done, but from their perspective, the Stratfor thing was a rational decision.
Ultimately, the question in this type of situation is whether or not society wants police to be able to take action on someone they *think* is going to do something, or do we want the police to wait until someone has *actually* done that thing?
Amazing advice, amazing how spot on this is with the struggle!
