8 Good Things Done By Hacker 'Terrorist' Group Anonymous


#8 Attack Church of Scientology

In January 2008, the group launched Project Chanology, a protest against the Church of Scientology. The project started in response to the Church of Scientology's attempts to remove material from a highly publicized interview with Scientologist Tom Cruise from the Internet in January 2008. The project was launched in the form of a video posted to YouTube, "Message to Scientology", on January 21, 2008. The video stated that Anonymous views Scientology's actions as Internet censorship and asserted the group's intent to "expel the church from the Internet." (Source: Wikipedia)

#7 Attack On Westboro Baptist Church

In early 2011, the organization targeted the Westboro Baptist Church, releasing several videos on a range of related topics, such as their controversial preaching against homosexuality. Several attacks were made on the primary website, one that was made while Shirley Phelps-Roper was debating Topiary (Jake Davis) a representative of Anonymous in a televised interview on the David Pakman Show. Anonymous carried out another attack on December 16, 2012 in response to Westboro's picketing of funerals for the victims of the Newtown Massacre. Anonymous is also supporting a petition to the White House to formally recognize the Westboro Baptist Church as a hate group.
