Now PayPal has finally come up with enough evidence to strike back at Anonymous with the help of the FBI. PayPal has come up with a list of over 1,000 IP Addresses left behind when they were attacked by Anonymous."

    This is probably why PayPal waited a year to turn over the addresses. Now those 13-year-olds are 14 years old. By the time the investigation is over, they will be 18-year-old subjects of warrantless wiretapping, at which point each of them will be caught doing something and charged as an adult. You need to think long-term about these things.
