"Anonymous" is just that - anonymous. We don't know what they want, or why they want it. All we have to go on are what these masked and random individuals have to say. While the idea of internet hacktivist super heroes appeals to me... and to many others, I'm sure - we should keep in mind that they undoubtedly have their own agenda and have proven many times their willingness to work outside the law. What are they really up to? If they want to shut down Trump - why? For the same reasons we would? Heck, who ARE they? Anonymous, that's all we know.

I despise Trump and everything he stands for, on such a level that the man makes me feel physically sick. However... I do not think we should lend our trust or support to anonymous hackers. Do they even have intentions that are defined in some clear way? Be wary.

Don't off the mask if you don't want to, Mr. Fox, but how about elaborating a bit on what exactly it is that you want to accomplish? Shutting down Trump? Why? What are you hoping to gain here?

They were going to out some of these well known people. I haven't heard a thing since then.
