Anonymous' pathetic little "operations" failed against Amazon. They will keep failing. This is not the '90s anymore, they might have gotten someone by surprises but in the 21st Century the advantage goes to those who have the better resources - and those aren't the script kiddies. Corporations and nation states have more digital power than any wannabe "hacker". The glory days are gone. Meatspace shits on cyberspace every given sunday.
Lol, so full of fail. Typical loserboy nerd. Wise up, urine stain, do you seriously believe the Mighty and Beloved Lord Obomo I got elected because of your silly machines and laughable scripts? He got elected because he has charm, and because he's cunning. You "tech workers" are paid shit and treated like shit because, surprise surprise, you ARE shit. You're as disposable as soiled diapers. Be grateful we only make you empty the trash bins and clean the toilets only once in a while. The day you "all band together" will be the day it will be more easy for us Real People to come over and beat you up.
I have detailed statistics on all the loserboy nerds I have taunted, teased, humiliated and beaten up. I have records of the harsh treatment I rightfully subjected them to, along with empirical data on the results. The merits of public forced self-debasement vs brown swirling. Score of chronometred arm-twistings (how long before the abhuman passes out from the pain, not until it starts screaming, that almost happens before the actual twisting begins) and pain threshold evaluation (difficult with nerds, you cannot tell from the screams because they always scream, so we just torture them until actual damage is evident). This does not make me a violent person. It's simple scientific research, from which younger jocks can learn to be more effective in the long crusade to stomp out nerdom. The net benefit for mankind is self-evident.
the slashdot readers who actually innovate and make technological progress
ROTFLMAO! Since when loserboy nerds who furiously masturbate in a fetid pile of their own feces contribute to progress in any way? Not sorry to crash your delusions with a mighty blow of the Reality Hammer, but Science and Technology have nothing to do with zit-faced teens trying to escape a merciless world that rightfully emarginates and despises them, or with obscenely obese, sweaty, fugly bags of pus man-kiddies who pursue pedo tendences while locked away in mum's basement. You 'orribile nerds contribute nothing, you just suck at the tit of society, make empty grandiose claims and threats then curl up and whimper whenever threatened with physical violence. In your laughable dreams you're Neo or some other imaginary character, in the Real World you're the scrawny kid lying on the pavement after being forced to eat garbage, been beaten up and with shit all over your face.
Contrary to your silly loserboy fantasies, the internet is not a world apart from the real one. Infrastructure, servers, communication lines and even your walmart-bought computer exist in the real world and are subject to the same laws as everything else. Your phone calls are not outside the law, nor is anything that goes through your modem. Whether you like it or not, the legal system as jurisdiction on anything that you do. It has been slow to catch up but the grey areas are being divided in stark and highly contrasted black and white. Don't like it? Blame it on yourselves: while wiser people have pointed out at the necessity to fight for our rights in the real world, the only one that matters, a multitude of deluded geeks retreated - as they always do - in their imaginary worlds where they could live out their ersatz lives and pedo fantasies. Now the mighty foot of the Law is firmly in the doorway and your world is crumbling down around you. The Real World is stomping out your loserboy dreams forever. Does it hurt much, nerdinhos? How will you live with the InterMarketNet(TM)? Have you considered suicide?
Nations have been killing spies for thousands of years.
Bad practice. When you find an enemy agent spying on you, you either deliberately feed him bad info or you arrest him and then arrange an exchange with one of your own captured by the counterpart. Killing enemy agents only leads to a retaliation spiral that doesn't do the intel business any good.
The death of Aaron Swartz wasn't enough to show them that they lost their humanity.
Do you think anyone - outside a very small and irrelevant community of abhumans with an overinflated ego - gives a rat's ass about aaron swartz? They could drop a hundred thousand swartzcorpses into a landfill and nobody would care. In time, if someone makes too many waves about the swartzcorpse, he will be labeled a "terr-or-reest" and that will be the end of it.
There's a legend about the oldest living man: whenever one dies, another will immediately take his place. There can only be one oldest living man alive.
It depends on what you target and how. If you detonate a 300kt weapon high in the stratosphere over a heavily industrialized area (read the US or the EU) the EMP fries the electronics, kills a lot of people by indirect results but otherwise doesn't cause the kind of long-lasting damage associated with nukes. It's kind of difficult to justify vaporizing and irradiating the attacker's populace on the ground of them having bricked your iWhatevers. And yet, a couple of EMP blasts over the US would be enough to kill its economy for a long, long time. Maybe forever. Most of the rest of the Western world would follow suit.
At least in the former case, you can still yell out loud: You can take my life but you will never take my freedom;-)
Jackbooted Thug: "Acceptable". (Shoots wannabe rebel in the stomach, then shoots another person at random in the same place). "Now everybody look at those two idiots. I want each and everyone of you to go there, stomp hard on their wounds and spit in their mouths as they cry in agony, then go home and *think hard* about the consequences of being idiots. Anyone who does not comply, we kill their families." Everybody complies and goes home a little shamed. No such displays of suicidal behavior will happen again.
Whether or not you can wear a suit and tie is irrelevant in 2013.
The Real World is about to crush your naive concepts into smithereens and sentence you to a Perpetual Unemployment(TM), Life of Misery(TM) and eventual Self-Cannibalism(CC).
You mean like in Afghanistan? Yes, I remember how, less than a couple of days after US forces moved into the country, the insurgency was either defeated or surrendered without much of a fight. Now there's not an Afghan who doesn't cheer the US, who doesn't wave a US flag pumping his fist in the air. Oops, did I miss something? Do you mean after 10 years and more the insurgency hasn't been defeated? But... But... Tanks! Jets! Drones! Oh shit.
... This is just AWESOME! She just took an enormous, smelly, chunky *SHIT* on the face of an untold number of abhumans who now, desperate for work, will have no choice but to show their fugly selves to a merciless world and be subjected to the scorn, ridicule and jeering they deserve. No more trek "uniforms", suits and ties for you (if any can accomodate your bloated size). Welcome to the real world!
How dare you criticize your lords and masters, who are so much better than you? You must accept those sacrifice for the good of yoorop. Bend over, spread open your anus and think of the glory of yoorop!/s
Besides, who cares about graphic quality above playability? I'd rather play a good game at 320x256 in 16 colors than gigapixel turd-o-ramic rubbish. Of course, the
market caters for copronanistic ADHD shit-eating braindead brats.
Stop spouting bullshit. You're making an even bigger fool of yourself than you already are.
Nobody cared then, nobody cares now, nobody will care in a couple of minutes. You're a small turd in a sea of shit, deal with it.
And hell, bones got 4 engines...it's like training wheels...
Yes. We should take them off sooner or later.

Yes, because that little kiddie script is so effective. Grow up.
Wrong. Porn is a metaphor. When you see stuff like "Massive gangbang triple penetration XXX 24" you basically see what's being done to taxpayers.
