Anonymous On Social Media: The False Narrative Of The Hacker
Are hackers heroes or thieves?
"Hacktivist" group Anonymous recently claimed to have hacked the Mineapolis police department and was going to release a record of all the department's injustices. Interesting take in the article below.
"In the end, it is important to recognize that hackers like Anonymous create digitally mediated false protest narratives via social media using dubious data and technological parlor tricks. Their actions are usually not based on any deep seated moral argument about real inequities. Just as looters vilify true protest, hackers give protest within social media a bad name."

Well, Forbes would say that, wouldn't they?

Rub the pages of Forbes together to soften it. It makes good toilet paper.

They are excellent for "inside the tent" stories.
But don't go to them for critiques of the fin-biz tent itself.
