Anonymous: Unmasked

Dr.Docs' Take

Anonymous, the leaderless hacker movement that became a folk hero and a headache for governments, told through the members who ran major cyber-attacks from the shadows. I find the whole thing fascinating precisely because there is no there there, no HQ, no boss, just a mask and an idea. Cyber-terrorist or freedom fighter depends entirely on whose network got hit. A sharp look at power without a face, which is exactly why it rattled the authorities.

Cyber terrorist or freedom fighter? Little did novelist Ian Thornton suspect that the beggar into whose hat he dropped some coin would turn out to be a high ranking member of the Anonymous movement involved in major cyber-attacks. After years on the run from the FBI the man known as Commander X is now looking for political asylum.
