Article: 'Anonymous' Releases IP Info for 190 Alleged Pedophiles

go anonymouse go .. making a london a better london for the children of chaos

for once they did something useful :dabs:

This is good. While there may be no criminal charges (this may put a spotlight on the Freedom Host owner, though) it is a solid tool that will strike fear into the "casual" uploader/downloader. The police are predictable, and discreet in their methods- Anonymous is anything but. I doubt there will be much credibility to those who cry, "Anonymous wrongly accused me of being a pedo"- any such claims will be about as believable (or less) than the "I was banned unfairly by [tracker X]. It's about time some light was shined into the darker recesses of online niches such as cp. As a parent of 20 month old twins, I say, "Thumbs up Anonymous!"

You watch too much Dexter.
Fighting crime with crime only exacerbates Society's problems or do you honestly believe that a bunch of idiots that assume the guise of a graphic novel character know better than the collective Law enforcement agencies and judicial systems of the World?

Certain things operate the way that they do not to give you vicarious satisfaction but because very wise people over the course of centuries have determined that it's better than the alternative.
If the people who belong to Anonymous ever grow up they will realize that for themselves.

I remember having this conversation with a friend a few weeks back. I was more or less on the same page as you Idol. At this point it's just children with too much time on there hands that dole out this sort of vigilantism. As you said the judicial process is better than this "street (internet) justice" alternative....much like communism and democracy.

whew, close one, missed the list again.

Probably because no one in Anonymous speaks Korean.

Why don't we have North Korean pirates? I'm sure they'd have some legitimately crazy shit to say.

Are you implying that Anonymous' actions will lead to more child pornographers? :huh:

I'm sure this created more panic in the hearts of pedo's than any judicial b.s

And I'm sure the average person let alone the average pedophile has never heard of Anonymous.
Now let's bet a thousand dollars on who's right.

true, the average person doesn't read or watch the news these days.

No unless it directly effects them the average person isn't interested enough in the idle pursuits of cyber-goons to care.

"interested in" and "knowing" are not the same, so if I was a betting man, chances are I'd be heading to the bank ;-)
I can't recall ever hearing anything on a judicial basis, anything close to what Anonymous is reporting. If I was a pedo and saw that flash across over the news, I'm sure it would make me uncomfortable.

Everyone knows who is Anyonmous is the minute they got involved with SONY

slippery slope my friends. it's easy to laugh off their cooperation with the authorities in regards to something as vile as pedophilia. however, who's next? what's next?

When I don't care about something I don't pay any attention to it which strangely also greatly limits my knowledge about it.
Have I "heard" of Anonymous yes. Do I "know" them from a hole in the ground no.

You're not the only one. My heart started to beat a bit quicker when I read the news title. False alarm though.

Not true. Ever try to 69 in one of those kid-sized race car shaped beds? Ridiculously hard on the back...

I kind of hope the douche who tried to illegitimize my posts on the last thread was part of that list. Go Anon!. Finally the group is doing something that the general population sees as "good".

Why are anyone of you defending Anon's actions here?? This is a clear-cut case of supporting a random irresponsible hacking group for using the same techniques as the feds and anti-piracy groups. There is no proof that the IP owners are necessarily guilty of anything, but now they automatically are because of this list? Don't use the defense if you support it for other purposes, file-sharers... And the argument that one is worse than the other legitimizes the actions still makes you a hypocrite.

i dont know if i agree. first of all, guy fawkes is not a graphic novel character. and i would most certainly say they do know better than the law enforcement and judicial systems, at least in respect to technology. do you really think some 70 year old judge, a street cop, lawyers, or a jury of average citizens knows anything about darknet? i cant count the number of court cases ive read dealing with computers or technology where it was painfully obvious that the prosecutor knew next to nothing about the technology involved in the case he was trying, much less trying to explain it to a judge and jury who can barely use their computers to email. personally, it is scary. and i wouldnt necessarily call it vigilantism in this case. they are exposing the activity, not acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

Whenever someone is found with child pornography, it makes the paper/news. Most of these stories involve someone discovering folders on someone's computer, or because there was another investigation underway.

Anonymous came across a hidden nest of pedophiles. It gathered their information, and made that public. Will anything come of this? Probably not, but on the same token the group of pedos are now scared, and must either quit their activities or find another "safe" place to regroup.

Shutting the site down is good. How can anyone say exposing a safe-haven for child pornography is bad?

That's exactly the point. Shutting the site down could have been accomplished other ways as Anon has previously proven. What if you were on the list because someone tapped your wi-fi or anonymously randomized their ip to match yours? Granted, most people probably don't have to the tools or wherewithall to do this and on the same level most people don't know how to secure their signal properly. The average user is one that has to call someone else whenever an error message pops up. This list will probably force at least one person to defend themselves in the public court that hasn't done anything illegal or immoral. Witchhunts come to mind...

This is starting to sound rather personal to you, sorry you got mixed up in it.

I guess I should have known better than to expect any intelligent responses. I am not caught up in anything, just don't like the idea of losing the freedoms that My country has provided to me. This topic is especially sickening this week given the Penn State issues, where they did have all the proof so many years ago and nothing was done. I am simply not a troll who posts once and never comes back to defend my argument, but apparently I need to be. You people must be the ones who are taking this personally by defending Anon. So, to resort to your level of debate, you're a bunch of sickened hypocrites who probably have lesser than average sized penises - na na na na na!!

So, aren''t you suggesting that an Anon-style group who would have brought this sort of thing to public attention in a timely manner would be a good thing. :unsure:

@macky: *High Five!*

You just can't trust groups of men, and there's plenty of anecdotes to go around.
