    Ai dump but you get the picture

    Anonymous has been able to accomplish a variety of things, including:

    • Supporting the Arab Spring: Anonymous hacked into government websites and took them offline in Egypt and Syria. They also distributed anonymising software for protesters and helped share videos of the uprising in Tunisia.

    • Fighting child pornography: Anonymous has exposed enterprises that provided a platform for child pornography and helped in the arrest of Internet predators.

    • Protesting against Scientology: Anonymous launched an online offensive against the Church of Scientology, including phone, fax and e-mail spamming, and DDoS attacks.

    • Taking down government websites: Anonymous has taken down government websites in response to a variety of issues, including stringent LGBT laws, imageboard censorship, and government oppression.

    • Exposing corruption: Anonymous has published usernames in relation to nefarious activities and outed the owners and operators of Freedom Hosting for their support for child pornography.

    These are just a few examples of the many things that Anonymous has been able to accomplish. While their methods are sometimes controversial, there is no doubt that they have had a significant impact on the world.
