How powerful is Anonymous?

Anonymous is neither a group nor a moment, Anonymous is an idea and ideas cannot be killed.

Anonymous is an interesting phenomenon while many media outlets referred them as a concentrating group .They can be more accurately described as a loose movement. Anybody can join and there is no central singular representation of the group, there are certain things more common on its members. Such as internet activism and obviously the anonymity .But there's no way to describe broad qualities to the group and even know how many members there are .The problem with quantifying anonymous is that there is no criteria for being a member . What we do know is that the Anonymous began in the early 2000 on the messaging board fortune and it actually represented the internet's inherent ability to Anonymous discussion within this framework popular ideas gained more attraction regardless of their origin and without the negative consequences associated with being identified ,the group became increasingly provocative .They first gain attention tension in 2008 for organizing an online attacked on Scientology .Although it consisted of mostly juvenile praise like faxing black paper to the organization or making crank call, the shared number of contributors was overwhelming.
The ability to collectively overpower common target led to their most consistent tool, DDoS attacks or Distributed Denial of Service is what website receives more requests that they can handle causing it to crash. Through this method Anonymous is been able to take down websites belonging to any group they disagree with. That of course taking down a website is relatively inconsequential so is anonymous really all that powerful. A group called Lulzsec has been implicated in hacking and releasing personal information leading to considerably more real world facts e-mail accounts and passwords belonging to people connected to Sony pictures of the U.S. Were made public. Even the CIA website was briefly shutdown. This resulted in the arrest of several leading members of Lulzsec, showever those tactics alongside existing internet activism have led to a global events like the ‘Arab spring’ which was only possible through co-ordinated Anonymous planning among huge number of like-minded people .

It might be misleading to ask how powerful is Anonymous where one anonymous really represents the changing nature of collective action vigilante justice and communication faster by the internet.

One anonymous is most powerful symbols is the peculiar mask that they wear.

They have a strong thought:
We in fact are actually very dangerous by not in a violent way. We are not dangerous to the masses; we are dangerous to the corrupted government and the corrupted media that when taking down we can ALL finally be free. am I or the rest of anonymous "trolls"? absolutely not that's only the kids who decide to go on cod games and Minecraft that choose to call themselves anonymous but really we care about what we stand against and what we stand for.
