#2 4chan has been used for human trafficking. This was just a moslem turd that got caught on his haughtiness.

#3 Summary: Muslim college brat goes on 4Chan (which shelters pedophile photo exchanges, pro-WikiLeaks DOS attackers, and that kid who hacked then VP candidate Sarah Palin's personal email account), downloads kiddie porn and boasts that he is going to shoot 500 people at his college next week. At least two 4Chan-ers contacted the FBI, which arrested our boy post-haste. When convicted, he faces jail and a serious fine.

#4 I mean, I just couldn't make sense of the headline - and then the inline text is cryptic as well. "Dirka, dirka jihad" pretender meets "a pack, not a herd"? WTF does that mean? The whole thing sounds like it was written by an insider, for insiders.

#5 Not entirely true. 4chan officially prohibits CP, and bans any user involved with it through them. Because of this, there are dozens of unconnected spin-offs of 4chan that are used for CP and other things.

And the /b/tards have contributed a lot to the Internet, such as lolcats, Rick Rolling, the Encyclopedia Dramatica, and a major organization opposed to Scientology.

In past they have taken down pedophiles, animal abusers, copyright enforcement groups such as ACS:LAW, and other bullies who use the Internet.

Anonymous, which is a non-group group with no leaders, often act like an Internet lynch mob, and often to those who richly deserve it. And in a few cases, they were able to muster a LOT of money for deserving poor people who needed organ transplants and things like that.

All told, a mixed bag. Anonymous is certainly not to be trifled with. Most recently, some private security firm tried to make a name for itself by identifying Anonymous members to the FBI, and they did such a poor job of it that Anonymous had to intervene, expose and possibly ruin the company, and inform and prove to the FBI that the data was bad and should not be incorporated into their systems.

#6 Anonymous is certainly not to be trifled with.

Maybe they can locate Obama's long form Birth Certificate and his college applications/transcripts...or something.

#7 The whole thing sounds like it was written by an insider, for insiders.

My attempts at humour clearly don't always connect, gromky. First reference was to Team America: World Police, the second to how Americans on 9/11 became a wolf pack, not a sheep herd to be preyed on by terrorist hijackers.

Anonymoose, it doesn't matter if 4chan officially prohibits kiddie photos, if the members violate it often enough to be remarked upon...
