Cyber Attack on God

    A few weeks ago, I wrote an article on the "hacking movement" known as anonymous.  They recently pulled one of their biggest hacks yet, and failed.  Last week, anonymous attempted to hack the Vatican's website "in an attempt to spread awareness of child sexual abuse/assault by priests, among other things."  The first article I read about this movement (I previously referred to anonymous as a group, but that doesn't seem to accuractley describe it).  Since the movement gained publicity in 2008, many people, often with no relation to anonymous, have hacked sites of a broad range of organizations claiming to be part of anonymous usually in an attempt to extort money or something.  The oddest thing that strikes me about anonymous is the fact that it has no real set goal or purpose.  It seems to just enjoy reaking havoc on websites that oppose their interests (which seems to be just about any and everything).  It seems the one thing everyone who is (or maybe isn't) in anonymous can agree on is that free internet data is essential to their cause and that seems any website or group that opposses this idea will instantly become a target by anonymous.  Back to the attack on JC.  According to a leading figurehead of the anonymous movement, the Vatican's website was able to prevent the hack because of proper investments in its infrastructure which of all the websites that have been hacked, its kind of ironic that this is one of the few (while huge technology leaders such as Sony) that actually did that.
