The trailer for upcoming dystopian shooter videogame " Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 " was available yesterday online following news that Activision would release the game on Nov. 13. The live-action "synopsis" portrays a future in which the United States' military forces have been hacked by either enemy nations or terrorists, bringing war to a 21st century Los Angeles . Included in the trailer is a single shot of an unidentified person wearing a Guy Fawkes mask, the unofficial symbol of Anonymous, shown while the narrator explains that "the enemy can be anywhere and can be anyone." The brief reference to the online hacktivist collective which has made a name for itself by fighting censorship and human rights abuse online but also for simply hacking websites "for the lulz," had self-proclaimed Anonymous members responding almost immediately. Anons quickly took to Twitter to voice their reactions to the news that they might be an enemy in the latest "Call of Duty" title. http://www.ibtimes.com/articles/336220/20120502/anonymous-hackers-call-duty-black-ops-trailer.htm

Anonymous hacked the CIA — RT

Traditionally known as FuckFBIFriday, this weekend's eve turned into FuckCIAFriday, as hacktivists downed the official website for the Central Intelligence Agency of the United States cia.gov. ­At approximately 3:10 p.m. Eastern time one of twitter accounts related to the hackers' group announced "cia.gov DOWN. #UMAD?#Anonymous." The CIA website became the latest victim in a series of attacks conducted by the elusive group of hackers against US law enforcement agencies and copyright holders.

About Sabu Treason "That night, after everyone found out, it was a bit chilling," said Gregg Housh, one of the few people associated with Anonymous who speaks publicly using his real identity. But in the hours and days that followed, something very different happened. "That switched. A lot of people we hadn't seen for months, or years, started showing up. An attack on some sites by Anonymous happened that night," he said. http://anonops.blogspot.com/

L'Express a été victime, lundi 23 janvier, d'une attaque de hackers , dont le mouvement anonymous s'était désolidarisé, car il estime qu'il ne faut pas attaquer les médias. Il s'agissait d'une réaction à un édito de Christophe Barbier sur iTélé , qui critiquait leur action, après la fermeture de Megaupload , et notamment le fait qu'ils agissent masqués. Après cette attaque, le directeur de la rédaction de L'Express avait publié une lettre aux Anonymous , afin de préciser ses paroles. Anonymous lui répond, grâce à cette vidéo postée sur Youtube le 1er février. http://www.lexpress.fr/actualite/high-tech/anonymous-repond-a-christophe-barbier_1079389.html

Sydney - Anonymous is generally reviled for their hacks by the people who should have systems that can’t be hacked. The FBI hack does make a point - These hacks relate to much bigger systemic problems. Anonymous are a strange phenomenon, not entirely covered by the rather useless word “hacktivism”. Whether you agree with Anonymous, Wikimedia or other online groups regarding various specific incidents, the truth is that they expose massive issues in areas which are extremely sensitive.

Anonymous défraye la chronique ces derniers jours. C'est donc le moment de tordre le cou à onze idées reçues, sur ce qui constitue un phénomène politique et social inédit, aussi profond que complexe. Cyberdémocratie : le temps des citoyens Comment les réseaux sociaux transforment-ils la gouvernance de la cité, le rapport au pouvoir et le discours politique ? Expériences citoyennes et projets urbains avec le Web 2.0 Il faut se méfier du vocabulaire militaire appliqué à Internet. http://www.planete-plus-intelligente.lemonde.fr/organisations/qui-sont-les-anonymous-_a-12-1265.html

WASHINGTON — Members of the hacker group Anonymous defaced the website on Friday of the law firm that defended a US Marine who faced charges in connection with the 2005 killing of 24 Iraqi civilians. Anonymous, in a statement which appeared on the website of the law firm of Puckett and Faraj, also claimed to have published online three gigabytes of private email messages of attorneys Neal Puckett and Haytham Faraj. "The contents of these email messages include detailed records, transcripts, testimony, trial evidence, and legal defense donation records pertaining to not only Frank Wuterich but also many other marines they have represented," Anonymous said. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5hJDwwAqFejQjK4oUbJyDv5vFuZNA?docId=CNG.700849e3f913fe85bcfa4ab200e6f620.4a1

(Parce que tout le monde donne son avis, que les analyses les plus pitoyables se confondent avec des prises de position plus ou moins éclairées, il n’y a pas de raison qu’un énième avis à propos d’Anonymous ne pointe son nez sur Reflets. Assumé, revendiqué, longuement réfléchi : parce que l’auteur se souvient, il y a bien longtemps, à des actions similaires, avant le passage de l’an 2000, et qu’à l’époque, on n’avait pas de vidéos youtube…) Pourquoi un art martial ? Cela aurait pu être « une philosophie », c’est vrai. Mais dans art martial il y a martial. http://reflets.info/anonymous-un-art-martial/

Ils appellent à la manifestation aujourd’hui 28 janvier 2012. Les Anonymous se présentent comme des « hacktivistes » et ambitionnent de protéger l’Internet de toute censure, qu’elle soit politique ou commerciale. Mais là, ils veulent lever la tête de leur écran pour descendre dans la rue. Ils peuvent le faire, mais à condition de tomber le masque. En effet, à la suite des manifestations de Strasbourg, en avril 2009, en marge du sommet de l’OTAN, le gouvernement a décidé de poursuivre les manifestants masqués. Pas de loi, mais un décret en date du 19 juin 2009, plaisamment baptisé « décret anti-cagoules ».
