Indeed. Seeding the data everywhere and in plain sight has been a successful tactic in the past, especially for Anon during the Scientology raids. This is similar - government employees are not allowed to view the material, so its proliferation could actually be problematic for some people and cause more of a bureaucratic nightmare than already exists. In terms of any actual usefulness to their analysis, that remains to be seen.
- huhtenberg 16y ago> during the Scientology raids How did that end by the way?
- fredoliveira 16y agoNo huge impact on Scientology as a whole, but it did raise awareness about the cult which I consider a good thing.
- nnnnnnnnnnnn 16y agoI would say that you characterisation of Anon as a cult is pretty accurate. A trollish, publicity-seeking cult, but a cult nonetheless.
- harpastum 16y agoI believe fredoliveira was calling scientology a cult, not Anonymous.
- fredoliveira 16y agoHis freshly-created account in certainly not a coincidence.
- fredoliveira 16y agoI see what you did there, and wish I could down-vote you. To be clear and explicit (because my original post can indeed be interpreted wrong), when I said cult, I was referring to Scientology. (I do find it quite ironic that you chose to troll while calling Anon "trollish" too.)
- nnnnnnnnnnnn 16y agoI would like to remind you of 4chan's official motto: trolls trolling trolls. I love how the response to my ironic post is ad-hominem attacks and calls to come out with the downvote pitchforks... Are we on reddit?
- harry 16y agoside note, the church did send out some aggressive DVD & pamphlet sets claiming anonymous was a terrorist organization to anyone they pegged at a protest.
