One can say, "the hacker's version of 4Chan" because Anonymous had origins from 4Chan.  Started as idea there and then morphed and grew to different individuals collaborating on the internet under the Anonymous banner, adding things like the V for Vendetta angle.  Now you will get guys going in public where V masks.

They do raids on people, like, someone will post a picture or a guy holding a dead cat, explain a story of how they killed the cat, and anon (this is what you call a poster in 4chan) will say "WE R LEGAY'N" and they'll hack people's facebook accounts, and use tons of other methods to find exactly where the picture was taken. At that time, they'll find the persons friend-circle, his schedule, his family's schedule, where he lives, get people to dumpster dive, steal the identities of the family etc etc etc. There is no ORGANIZER, or LEADERSHIP there. It's chaos.

BUT, I do have to admit that legion is 90% of the time, morally right (in a renegade cop kinda way).

The question becomes then, do we kill the chaos so it has no chance of existing.  I would find it of concern if being anonymous is no longer possible.  This could likely be a greater threat than having what happened with the PSN, which in no way do I support happening.  It does sicken me that gamers would have to go through this.
