    Unless you are familiar with C, or any of its derivative languages, all of which chose !=

    Meaning that != is already pretty widely understood, and uses one less char, making it 33% better!

    Once again, I always thought it was too obvious to even talk about it because I presumed Anonymous participants (I hesitate to say "member") were smart enough not to hack on things within their own country. So like, if you were in the US, don't go hacking on US servers... (additionally, don't hack from a country with an extradition treaty.) So Italians were caught hacking on Italian servers... brilliant. I never thought anyone would be that stupid.

    So when bin Laden is gone, the authorities are equating script kiddies with terrorist, and refer to their hideout as their "cell".
