Anonymous Doxes Trump, But Leaked Info Underwhelms

Posted by timothy on Thursday March 17, 2016 @03:13PM from the dog-isn't-that-shaggy dept.

Mic.com reports that the "total war" declared by Anonymous against presidential candidate Donald Trump has resulted in a grandly presented leak of some personal information. Items alleged to be personal information about Trump have been posted to PasteBin; these include a social security number purported to be his, contact information for some Trump business associates (including his agent and his lawyer's office), and some information about his family relationships. As Tech Insider points out, though, the YouTube video announcing the dump seems to overstate its significance, in that none of the information leaked is new or earth-shattering -- most of it could be quickly gleaned from a Google search or a visit to Wikipedia.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, this has all the hallmarks of an amateurish false flag operation against Anonymous.
The geek is grasping at straws.. It would be too much of a blow to his own ego to admit that Anonymous has run out our of gas, become dim-witted and futile.
