Hey,
After doing some thinking after watching a few of Anon's youtube video's, it struck me that possibly Anonymous is hacking so many online databases and companies so that the Government has no choice but to implement the kill switch (cutting the access to internet). If the kill switch occurred, people would revolt and finally start this "revolution" that Anon is talking about.

It happened in Eqypt when the internet was cut, why not in America.

Just some food for thought.

Great thought bro. But I think the government is gradually realizing how self-destructive that would be.

Take a look at some of the anon threads on here, they'll knock your socks off =P

Arrest one, 10 more take their place.

I would actually think it's very plausible for this to be caused by the government. I'm usually the last to back up any conspiracies but in order to pass some of the legislation they want in regards to the internet they need a bigger reason than what they have now.

Enter the groups like this. Seems a bit strange to me.

The Government will never throw the kill switch, unless the Revolution begins on its own.

As power hungry as they are, they are smart. They know that doing so would cause such an uprising.

What they will do is crackdown on the internet. Mass censorship and ISP taps.

Imagine if they sold it like they sold the Patriot Act? "Homeland Security" needs us to censor the internet. The masses would believe it and be pacified. Over time you could root out every blog and disenting website. Slowly, the internet could go from free to enclosed without much of a fight.

If Anonymous is hoping for that, they will be waiting for a long time.

I think it's just a group of very smart people who are doing what they can to fight the system, all while remaining anonymous as to prevent them from being incarcerated (except for the unlucky few). It could be debated that they are doing more harm then good, but at least they're doing SOMETHING.

How is this breaking political news? In order for them to shut down the net here in America they would be shutting down the whole worlds net and really piss off many nations. Commerce depends on the net. I find it odd that Anon is such a threat to the U.S. if they are really just script kids. They are either many pro hackers or highly trained Russians, Chinese or the CIA themselves.

I would bet on anyone of the last three. Anon is dangerous because not even other members know who each other is, other than some online personas.

The net went down in Egypt a while after the rioting started. Anon tried to get it back up but then again Soros and his gang wanted that to be up. Remember how these riots started in every country, Facebook and AQ type groups killing the troops in said countries.

If ANON wanted to really help out the American people they would lock up the FEDs computers, do the same with the banks but make sure every mortgage that is under $300,000.00 gets switched to paid in full or make them disapear all together.
