Hackivist group Anonymous vows to “kill Facebook” on November 5, citing users’ lack of choice in privacy as its reason for attack.
The group of hackers has claimed participation in just about every recent notable hacking attack of this year and successfully broke into 70 law enforcement websites and took down the Syrian Ministry of Defense website this week alone.
This recent interest in Facebook, despite a slew of privacy concerns raised against the social network since its founding, may be a result of Anonymous’s recent announcement that it plans to create its own social network, called AnonPlus. After the group’s Google+ account, called “Your Anon News,” was banned, it began fleshing out AnonPlus.com, “a new social network where there is no fear … of censorship … of blackout … nor of holding back.”
We are a legion. We are one. We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
WE ARE ANONYMOUS
EXPECT US!
and i also think this is an excellent idea.
facebook destroys lives and careers
Facebook is created by this Jewish scum of the earth Zuckerberg. I would like to see its downfall.
lol it’s amazing how people filter out information eh… we need reading and comprehension lessons here.
listened to them on youtube and must say their statment sounds “questionable”. and even though they shut down Facebook, who says people will flock to their site??
you stupid? anonymous are internet activists they dont want people on their site, they just fighting for internet rights and anonymity… and facebook basically sells your identities and information… they need to go
Why should FB go? This is my link to friends and family. You all just need to be aware of the things that you all put up on FB. Some of all you have all all you zafe out there like all you want to be noticed
It’s not important what the people decide to share and what they do not decide to share. The illusion that your privacy settings on Facebook can be adjusted has most people fooled. All your information is stored and collected in your account, to be sold and used for things you wouldn’t agree on.
“Safe” behaviour on these terms would mean you’re best off not filling any personal information, or even talk to others, every piece of information you tell your friends and family, can be stored to create a ‘profile’. I’m no paranoid Facebook hater. I use it myself, however, it is not as easy as “be carefull”. The site’s structure is way more complex than that. People should pay more attention to their privacy rights. The right of privacy is something we all take for granted in this point of time. If nobody fights for it, it will be lost at some point in the future.
