I think the Doomsday Clock is going to be adjusted even closer to midnight, very soon.

I get the feeling the whole point of them is they can be anywhere.
It's hard to be a secret organisation if the police can find you after a short search.

Anonymous is still a thing?

I tried to access a few Russian websites yesterday and they were down.

Wasn't sure if it was the Ukrainians, or the Kremlin keeping info from their people.

Turns out it was Anonymous. Well done. Keep at it.

What kind of idiot would have a munitions plant linked to the internet in any way?
Obvious targets like that will use a secure intranet system if they have any interest in security at all.
I would be amazed if any US munitions systems are linked for example.

They operate everywhere.

I hope the specific actions they take against Russia can't be traced back to US servers.

I don't think it's police, I think it's at the National Security Agency's level.

I think you greatly underestimate what a unified in goal Anonymous group can accomplish and you’ll never know how they got in or from where.

And I think you greatly underestimate the power of state controlled intelligence services and security branches.
