Interesting article profiling a well-mixed crew of keyboard warriors. Most of these people I've never heard of. Whether you love or hate them, agree or disagree with their stances, it cannot be denied that they are demonstrating the power of the Interent to shake things up.

So hold your head up high, ATS! You are part of something big, global, and stil taking shape. And its up to people like us to keep the net free and open so the truth keeps flowing. Will the keyboard prove to be mightier than the sword?

Moot has an army at his control.

Anonymous ranges from 11 year old girls to 70 year old men.

From foreigners to PHD holders.

If he calls on them the consequences will never be the same.
