The tagline for hacktivist group Anonymous goes like this: “We are anonymous. We are legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect Us.”

The question is, whom or what should we expect on November 5th? In a press release posted on YouTube on August 9th, the “citizens of the world” were warned by a group claiming to be Anonymous that “the medium of communication you all so dearly adore will be destroyed.” Subsequently, Anonymous has tweeted that #OpFacebook is a fake operation and that killing the messenger is not their style. But does it matter? Anonymous themselves were, well, anonymous until they shut down Church of Scientology’s website. If a faction has broken off and decides to attack Facebook on its own accord, the effect will be the same.

WEIGH IN:

Are you concerned? Do you think there’s enough momentum against Facebook from groups like Anonymous to leave you queasy about using it?
