    Maybe some early pranks. Most of what they do seems legit, fighting oppression and calling out bigots and disgusting people.

    Probably defacing PBS?

    Though I think that may have kindof been the FBI’s idea rather than Anonymous’. (It took place after Sabu was compromised by the FBI and I think it was kindof Sabu that started… was it LulzSec that that PBS hack was done under?)

    Fuckin’ FBI.

    (Also, don’t know why you’re getting downvotes.)

    I most disagree with identifying Anonymous as a group. It was meant to be a label under which anyone could do anything, granted power through what it was specifically not, and the attempts by people both within and without to make it a group destroyed the value of the Anonymous label.
