I gotta admit though it seems somehow appropriate.

I ... I don't understand.  So it's ok to hack if you're part of Anon but not otherwise?  The free spread of information now has limits?  Going by the 'reasons' they gave for stuff they did, shouldn't they have been applauding him?  They ... they don't make any sense.  And they can't even see they don't.

Were you expecting them to make any sense?

If anything, they're going to deal with the terrible, terrible way software is designed these days. I get so sick of the stupid "clobber something together, and launch it once we gets past pre-alpha stages and we'll work on it live" mentality that lots of managers have and is the main cause of crap on the web (and "hacks" to your website, half of which are caused by launching things that aren't ready yet)

So yeah ^^

I'm pretty sure LulzSec is separate from Anon and doesn't necessarily approve. But Anon has likely splintered into a thousand pieces once they stopped targeting specifically scientology. Today anons have nothing to do with the old anons.
It's always been more of a mob than a group.

Well, no.  But that sort of idiocy always hurts my bwainz.

That would be nice.  With how much stuff is going web based these days, it'd be nice to finally get something 'ready' that wasn't really a super buggy alpha that we pay to test.  This isn't a knock on the D&D webtools (ok, not 100% ) alone, this is standard friggin' practice these days.  Like, with massive corporations as the consumer instead of some basement dwelling teen.

LulzSec recently reintegrated with AnonOps in order to get more help and cover.  They also recently 'retired', though, so who knows what it is they're actually doing.

AnonyLulz.


@ZB, it needen't be "the" Anonymus, if there is such a thing. I gotta say, it was clever on their part to be decentralized, though it probably made managing the thing a nightmare
