What do you think of all this mainly 4chan spawned conflicts.
I'm pretty sure anonymous (the mainly script kiddie group) in
part probably spawed from 4chan, along with various other
things...some good most bad in my opinion.
In case you haven't heard of the Ddos
http://techcrunch.com/2010/11/14/tumblr-4chan-war/
I think this Ddos'ing is getting out of control.
Is this common with un-moderated groups?
It is great in that it is bringing awareness for the need of
computer security but they seem to be acting like children with
the "my group is better than your group" attitude without any
supporting reason.
The availability of open source software has largely contributed
to the growth of script kiddies, I doubt that they would have the
money to spend on professional software tools which the open
source tools mirror.
Is anonymous access (<- read TOR etc...) to the internet a good
thing, seems to encourage a lot of crimes...But then again
privacy violations can incorrectly lead to peoples lives
being ruined with bad publicity
Does the good outweigh the bad...does the bad outweigh the good.
Just seems like the internet sometimes brings out the worst of society :/
