Can any oldfags red pill me on what anonymous was when it started it, and what it is now... Is anonymous still relevant? What's the difference between it then and now, and how has it changed?

it used to be just for the lulz

What changed?

anonymous stopped being relevant in the early 2000s

we all just call ourselves user so we don't have to give our names, there is literally nothing more to it on this site than that. It's romanticized by people here but that's the truth of it.

So, what's the pop culture user shit all about? How did it go from one to another.

pretty sure it was all about scientology and aids. Mostly aids

donald trump

no ignore that user he is a newfag and has no idea about anything. The real anonymous was a group of hackers who gave justice to those who needed it but they basically left this site and stopped being associated with us after they seen this shit hole of a site going downhill back in like 2012.

anonymous as an entity was never a real thing, people only started to think it was a thing when the 14yo faggots started to think Sup Forums was their personal army and it just kind of leaked out from there.

>hackers who gave justice

No it wasn't, kek, get a load of this summerfag

Wasn't about justice at all, it was about fucking with people, the whole justice bullshit was people who hijacked the name and image and tried to become a sort of faggotry collective superman of the internet

Lmao. A collection of all these things TBH.
Consider yourself caught up.

Porn

tronald dump

oldfag here,
Sup Forums used to be full of edgy teens who learned how to ddos using shit sites like LOIC and stuff.

some of them were good and did genuinly impressive stuff! now we're hiding like onions in a field

Parliment bomber

>LOIC

LOIC wasn't even released long enough ago for oldfags to have used it, what is it, 3 years old?

They captured one from lulz and he spilled the beans. Bunch of pussy sons of bitches that did not do anything.

Lol listen to this fag. Yes it was for justice. It was to even the playing field. I don’t know what the fuck you are talking about

loic got released in 2009 or 10 i think

an inside joke that got out of hand and newfags took seriously

newfag from around 2010/2011 here.
I do remember that Sup Forums went nuts about the occupy wallstreet protest and organised thinks like the pizza calls and shit during the worldwide two week media blackout on it.
Anons of the group have been involved and we had shit like the freedom info network.

Later far right and left took over and anonymous became the edgelord shit it is today.

2014

hehehee the good old days!
we were involved in what was happening.
now its dead.

imagine nowdays what could be done to disrupt gov activities in major countries and create shitstorms around the world hehehe!

we need something better, ddos was easy and no one was protected well enough.. now every1 are ! maybe if we were enough doing it it would be effective

It was you and me and anyone else that joined in doing randumb shit and acting like it mattered.

it had another name

ask Scientologists, they know

The problem is that the generation 1970-1980 is feeling guilty for leaving the world to us milenials (born in 1992) as the fucked up place it is atm.
They have enjoyed their comfort zone and now they play the moral high ground card but dare them to talk about economy and actual politics (infrastructure etc).
They will only talk about stuff that makes them look good and they embraced this safe space and pc shit since they never really grew up.

I'm political interested since 2005/06 and I live in Germany.
Our newspapers delivered most of the corrupt big names in the banks on a silver tablet but the majority was feeling too wealthy to do shit about it.

I started fulltime work in 2011 to make some savings but that has gotten harder and harder.

Moving to Austria this year since there I don't have to lower the qualitiy standart of my work and I will have a slightly better wage.

I warned about Hillary around 2011 and 2012 and nobody gave a shit.

Their psychological issues are more important than the future and that is the basic reason why they like Islam so much, it is not too far away from their own moral view.

That said, there are great people who are starting to have great ideas and a good mindset.
Most mid 40's can piss off though.
Narcissistic egoistic spoiled brats is what many of them are.
Not all of course.

we're not millenials

Do your own reporting/homework.

It's not about homework or research, was to prove a point to somebody who is trying to tell me that all the Twitter using hipster hashtagging fucktards who have edgy user names and V for Vendetta mask profile pics are actually "anonymous"

its called a fawkes mask

>fawkes mask
Still the fawkes mask specifically from the V character though

They are.
The idea behind it was taken from V for Vendetta that everyone can be anonymous and so that happened.
It depends on what the majority wants to do with it.
I still have the free intro etc. for the case you want to make a video and edit it.
You put on the mask and you spread the idea, we could not imagine how dumb people would become but they did and they have the masks.
The name is what you get, people talking about shit without showing their faces.

We are not 90's kids, we had our puberty after 2000 and as far as I know, that is what makes us the millenials.
In the 90's I had a wooden sword, a best friends and we had a huge forest to explore.

It was a joke that got out of hand.
Some anons took it seriously and went to prison for their troubles.
Then black lives matter started using the mask during protests and riots.
Now we hang out on Sup Forums and circle jerk.

>The idea behind it was taken from V for Vendetta

Bullshit, the mask didn't even make an appearance for a good while after "Anonymous" started fucking with people from here. Stop pretending to be an oldfag

There was once a time when this board fucked up anything for the lulz and did so semi-anonymously. Around 08/09 people used the user brand irl to troll the church of scientology after that tom cruise video was released and around the time of occupy a group of folks used the user brand for hacktivist shit (you used to find a lot of folks around here that cared about promoting piracy and hacking corporations). One cell had an fbi informant sending Jeremy Hammon to prison. Now user is an fbi psyop, a bunch of irl folks who never knew anything about it when it was actually a thing (on both the so called right and left), and this website has been doomed to spam, neo nazi recruiting, and celebrations of rapist cucks especially after gamergate.

>2014
You're full of shit.

Look at the date on this Gizmodo article
gizmodo.com/5709630/what-is-loic

And by then it was old

Tom cruise startet it all

This and this

>mARBLECAKE ALSO THE GAME

oh yeah, and check out this gem from the past.
youtube.com/watch?v=DNO6G4ApJQY

This is more or less accurate

kek this is what it was all about, bullying people.

Now it's a bunch of politically motivated edgelords

This. fuck that other cunt with a rake.
It all began with chanology, an ill-fated operation with the intention of bringing together all the other imageboards for the grand purpose of trolling tom cruise. However, at its heart, it was a purely youtube based incident, which had the regrettable consequence of bringing in hordes of newfags

People stopped trying to be fun and enjoy themselves and descended into trying to out edgelord each other. Also whenever anyone suggest doing something for the lulz now people just shout "not your personal army" and go back to trying to act too cool for school while being massive faggots.

Plus the ban-hammer used to be used liberally to keep the cancer at bay, but now the gooks in charge just let the cancer spread and poison everything.

Dear Sup Forums,

It's us,Anonymous,once again. Except this time it's the leader speaking.

We are finished with your child pornography, gore, and cruel jokes that spread like a snake bites and ruin the internet. Where have all of the internet problems come from? Reddit? 9gag? No, no.
Here.
Tonight at 12:00am Pacific Time Sup Forums will officially come to an end.

"kek u cant do sh*t"

Not only do i have my hacking skills and team aside me,but i also have 9gag,the founding website of Anonymous,aside us.

You're probably all thinking

"DARNIT GUYS WHAT DO WE DO"

There is one thing you CAN do. Surrender. I want Moot and Heaven here with the ID and everything,saying sorry,and banning all of things disgusting things from your website.

As of now,you have 3 and a half hours.

The clock is ticking gentlemen.

We are legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.

-The Leader

hurr and/or durr. LOIC was out in like 2008, dumbass

Pretty spot on. Also shit trolling. These days nobody wants to get baited and everything is presumed to be bait. The fact is it was better when we would retardedly get behind most things and if it was a troll everyone just moved on. 9/10 raids would fail but the pay off for a win would easily outweigh this.

Anonymous is that green line above your post, the name field. That's it, it says anonymous by default, ergo, Anonymous. Back in like 04 I think some news ran a bit on Sup Forums and of course sensationalized a really boring feature that hardly anyone ever changes. Which was perpetuated by such lulz as project chanology, the Habbo raids, etc. Since the people involved were from Sup Forums they got the Anonymous name in the media.

this picture is all you really need to know about nunnymoose

>forgetting Sabu was a beaner snitch

>Sup Forums existed in 2008
newfag detected

>saving the thumbnail.
fuck off

I hope Sabu is getting rapeb by niggers. But in terms of purelulz. lulzsec was better.

It was a meme and then a bunch of hipsters joined in and it became more and more gay until it finally died.

Sorry newfriend but Sup Forums was filled with tripfags in 2008

Theres a good doc on it and Sup Forums on netflix

there's also a good documentary on your mom on pornhub

Just a shitty stock image, but yes I saw the irony as soon as I posted it.
