Anonymous take on banks, credit card companies, lawyers, internet security companies, churches, and now Iran is on their cross hair.

'Anonymous' Hackers Help Iranian Activists Fight The Regime

The collective is providing users with special advice forums and tools to fight the Iranian government's censorship. The group has also encouraged Iranian users to use distributed-denial-of-service attacks (DDOS) in order to take down key government websites like khamenei.ir, the website of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, as well as leader.ir and president.ir.

Arash is a hacker who works with Anonymous to fight government censorship and cybercontrol in his native Iran. It's hard to pin down what exactly Anonymous is. The organization has no leaders and no headquarters and grew out of image-sharing forums in the United States.

Encouraging Iranians to do this stuff is irresponsible. What happens when some of those Iranians are arrested and tortured?

Fight and you may die. Run and you will live at least awhile. And dying in your bed many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance, to come back here as young men and tell our enemies that they may take our lives but they will never take our freedom!

You're right. People should either revolt or do nothing. Overthrow the government or don't. Dicking around and hacking is a great way to accomplish nothing then get tortured or murdered for it.

Good work, now get started on foxnews. Maybe retransmit 80s pro-wrestling matches with mullets and bimbos and all? I doubt anyone who watches will tell the difference.

I got retweeted by Anonymous today. They have eyes everywhere. :ninja: The page I had linked, which talked about them targetting the Westboro Baptist Church, no longer exists.

WBC did respond defiantly though and I'm sure they'll regret it. This is like a china shopkeeper waving a red flag to a bull.

Edit: Nevermind. According to Anonymous, this is a fake attempt by the WBC to get attention.
