I'm not a big fan of Anonymous, but I have some friends who are. I liked what they did back in the day with the Church of Scientology, but sometimes I disagree with what they involve themselves in. The Steubenville issue was one. I don't believe in vigilantism, but it seems to be a growing fad. The reason I disagree with it is because too often innocent people are swept and condemned as guilty. In the Steubenville issue, I didn't really know who was guilty of what there, but I felt that should be decided in a court of law. They are also involving themselves in political issues. I saw part of one of their videos where they were claiming to represent the people. They don't represent me. I represent myself and I don't do so anonymously. I believe in individualism and not obeying the will of a collective. That being said they have the right to voice their opinions as much as anyone else. Other than that though, I don't spend a lot of time thinking about Anonymous.
