It doesn't matter what name you use. SonyOps, Anonymous, whatever. The problem is people talking about them as an organization with "members", when it's neither an organization nor does it have members...

Praising or criticizing Anonymous as an organization is pointless. Sometimes people can organize in groups to do things as "Anonymous", but it's just a temporary thing and does not represent the true "Anonymous".

However, you can praise or criticize the idea, because that's what it is. I interpret it as the idea that anyone can do their part in Internet activism or hacktivism against actual organizations which attempt to suppress freedom of information.

Alright, well I didn't mean to give you the impression that I think of them as a real network or organization or anything like that. I understand that there is no Anonymous per se, and that people come and go as they please and only do things in the name of Anonymous "for teh lulz" or whatever nonsense.
