Pretty interesting article, but there are a lot of factual inaccuracies along with it. For one, Anon is known for it's professionalism "on the job" so to speak. Having a couple members go rogue and hack into Sony, and then turn on Anon, and every dramatic, high-school-esque event that's followed....well, it just reeks of forgery.
Now, I'm not saying Anon is innocent. Far from that. However, the reality is all the more sinister. Sony in 2005 had DRM on their music CDs. Sony has become this empire of lies and failures and it shows here. Sony most likely hired Anonymous to "hack" into their own servers and leave a silly little note like "Anon wuz here". It would be a big scare and everyone would phreak. Then, they could go offline for a month, saving nearly a bajillion yen, and then come back online with a few new online games simultaneously released and a subscription system following in December fresh on teh heels of "higher security".
See, Sony made a good case about the hackers, and correctly placed it as anon, but the real question is "can we trust a company that created mini-discs". No, we cannot. I only hope this goes to show the rest of you that Sony is ALWAYS wrong, and anytime you hear news of any kind, Sony is usually to blame.
