Begins posting KKK members' info online.

While I support the fight against the KKK, I don't advocate these methods.

Today they're fighting the good fight against the KKK. Tomorrow they're fighting the good fight against people registered as Republicans. The day after that they're posting addresses for all gun owners.

If it turned out that Anonymous was a government entity, would anyone be surprised? I get Anonymous' goals and I can't say I'm really "against" them, but I'm definitely afraid of them or who they'll inspire. They may not ever do the examples I listed, but copycats might.

Yes.  They've been too competent and successful to be feds.

Agree.

So far it looks like some innocent people are getting trashed.

Aiken is the president of the Excessive Discipline Protection Database, a New Jersey-based consulting group that advises law enforcement unions. Her business email address appears in the Pastebin dump.

“This was done by a high-ranking employee at a jail to harass a union member,” Aiken told me. That employee, Aiken alleges, is Kirk Eady, the former Deputy Director of the Hudson County Correctional Center. Eady is currently on the other side of the bars. He was convicted for wiretapping Aiken, along with other union-affiliated coworkers at the jail, in September.

You say that like Anonymous is some organized group.  Anonymous is basically whomever goes out to do some digital vigilantism and calls themselves Anonymous while doing it.  Sure there are a handful of people that are common participants in the majority of these vigilantism actions, but none are universal to all of them and there's no organization to any of it.

As much of a chaotic mess as Occupy Wall Street was, it was orders of magnitude more official and organized than Anonymous.
