Is anyone here a member of anonymous, and if so...can you tell me a little about them?

I'm not a member, but here are a few quotes:

We are not a group no one can catch. We are an idea that no one can stop. Idea's are bullet proof and thats what Anonymous is....bullet proof. They can take down a few of us maybe. Ten more will take their place in defiant outrage. Anonymous can not be stopped because Anonymous is no one yet everyone. They are just proving to everyone that freedom is dead in America and the rest of the Western World. Its
time for a change of regime. - F0ra11Fr33m3n

Dear PayPal, its customers, and our friends around the globe,

This is an official communiqué from Anonymous and Lulz Security in the name of AntiSec.

In recent weeks, we've found ourselves outraged at the FBI's willingness to arrest and threaten those who are involved in ethical, modern cyber operations. Law enforcement continues to push its ridiculous rules upon us - Anonymous "suspects" may face a fine of up to 500,000 USD with the addition of 15 years' jailtime, all for taking part in a historical activist movement. Many of the already-apprehended Anons are being charged with taking part in DDoS attacks against corrupt and greedy organizations, such as PayPal.

What the FBI needs to learn is that there is a vast difference between adding one's voice to a chorus and digital sit-in with Low Orbit Ion Cannon, and controlling a large botnet of infected computers. And yet both of these are punishable with exactly the same fine and sentence.

In addition to this horrific law enforcement incompetence, PayPal continues to withhold funds from WikiLeaks, a beacon of truth in these dark times. By simply standing up for ourselves and uniting the people, PayPal still sees it fit to wash its hands of any blame, and instead encourages and assists law enforcement to hunt down participants in the AntiSec movement.

Quite simply, we, the people, are disgusted with these injustices. We will not sit down and let ourselves be trampled upon by any corporation or government. We are not scared of you, and that is something for you to be scared of. We are not the terrorists here: you are.

We encourage anyone using PayPal to immediately close their accounts and consider an alternative. The first step to being truly free is not putting one's trust into a company that freezes accounts when it feels like, or when it is pressured by the U.S. government. PayPal's willingness to fold to legislation should be proof enough that they don't deserve the customers they get. They do not deserve your business, and they do not deserve your respect.

Join us in our latest operation against PayPal - tweet pictures of your account closure, tell us on IRC, spread the word. Anonymous has become a powerful channel of information, and unlike the governments of the world, we are here to fight for you. Always.

Signed, your allies,

Lulz Security (unvanned)
Anonymous (unknown)
AntiSec (untouchable)

HBGary Federal hacked and exposed by Anonymous | Naked Security

If anyone here were a part of Anonymous, do you think they'd admit to it? Doubtful. The above link contains various articles about Anon. You can also do a search for Lulzsec and TeamPoison too if you want to know more about the underground hacking scene.

They will all eventually be found, and then they will work for the FBI. It's a strange game they play.

It's not necessarily a group that you join, it's just an idea. Maybe if you're lurking around, you'll come across an "OPERATION POSTER" that you can participate in. It's simply a picture with an idea, you can chose to partake or derail the OP if you're in the original thread, wherever it may be.

I highly doubt they will all be found. They and LulzSec have been able to hack the FBI several times already. They are better hackers then the FBI.
And they will only work with the FBI if the FBI agrees with Anonymous.

F**K FBI FRIDAY III: ManTech Mayhem

Ahoy thar,

Today is Friday and we will be following the tradition of humiliating our friends from the FBI once again. This time we hit one of their biggest contractors for cyber security: Mantech International Corporation.

We are providing these ManTech documents so the public can see for themselves how their tax money is being spent. But don't you worry, the U.S. is a rich country and can afford to waste money, right?

Dear Government and Law Enforcement, we are repeating this message as we have the suspicion you still do not take us seriously: We are not scared anymore and your threats to arrest us are meaningless. We will continue to demonstrate how you fail at about every aspect of cybersecurity while burning hundreds of millions of dollars that you do not even have.

The director of the U.S. Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT), Randy Vickers, already resigned from his post, without proving an explanation. Let us provide you with one: Mr. Vickers realized that he is on the losing side of
this war. A war that should never have been started in the first place. Not
only because the enemy was vastly underestimated and misjudged completely but even more because it is fought against innocent citizens who simply chose to protest against the grievance of the government. You cannot win this war and the sooner you realize this and call for peace, the sooner we can put an end to this and solve the problems of this world together.

Dear citizens of the U.S. and the world: We are fighting in the name of all the oppressed and betrayed people. In your name we will continue to fire upon these laughable battleships until they are no more. Hold on tight while the seas are
rough but we will prevail!
