There is a difference between connecting with Guy Fawkes and V.  While the V character connects to Guy Fawkes, V character himself is connected with the graphic novel, and important to understand how that is different.

It is not especially different. Both Fawkes and V resorted to extreme means to fight against oppressive governments, and whether or not they were justified in doing so depends on whom you ask. That was the entire point of V for Vendetta - to make it morally ambiguous so that the reader has to decide for himself whether V is right or just crazy.

Similarly, we each have to decide for ourselves whether Anonymous are right or just dickbags. Based on the past actions done in its name, I vote for the latter.

Was it supposed to be morally ambiguous.
 
It always seeemd pretty onesided to me.

Of course, so did Rorshach being right at the end of Watchmen.
