RE: Anon Bulgaria Returns, Hacks Azerbaijani Embassy - Selling Data for 1 BTC

in #leaks7 years ago

While I applaud Anonymous's effort to shine a spotlight on the dark underbelly of clandestine government operations, I have to question their tactics.

Do they think about the impact they are making on the regular Joe that works at the embassy they are hacking? As a former government employee that worked for the military, I had access to lots of Secret and Top Secret information, but in the end I was just a normal guy with a family.

The law of unintended consequences also applies to Anonymous...

Sort:  

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. Are you saying that innocent government workers can lose their jobs because of the hack?

I think that's possible, but it pales in comparison to a multi-billion dollar illegal weapons operation that ultimately fuels the destruction of nations (eg. Syria, Iraq) and the senseless killing of hundreds of thousands of innocent lives.

The main issue with Anonymous is that anyone can claim they are part of Anonymous, this is both their greatest strength and weakness.
