''Anonymous''

Hi,

Im a feature writer with The Toronto Star, Canada’s largest circ daily.  I am writing hoping you might be able to help me out with a story I am doing on Anonymous.

Would you be willing to answer a few (maybe dumb, maybe not) questions, either via email or telephone or VOIP or whatever?

These are the sorts of things I am seeking answers to:

Q: Tell me a bit about yourself and what you're about. Are you in the UK? The US?

Q: Who or what is Anonymous?

Q: In your most recent piece for the Guardian, you refer to ‘’we.’’ Who is we? The hacktivists that have been targeted by the law?

 

Q: Is there an Anonymous central? (I know that there isn't but I have to ask if only to get laughed at.)

Q: From what I can tell it uses a Blackhole server. Correct? What does that mean?

Q: There are lots of people using some variation of Anonymous as a handle on Twitter. I guess some are just hangers-on? Is there a real/actual handle?

Q: We now have WikiLeaks, Anonymous and who knows what else. Seems that something is happening in cyberia that is going over most people's heads. Do you agree? Any thoughts?

Q: What's with the Pokemon thing? ie. Mudkipz.

Q: Are these stupid questions? :-)

I really appreciate any time you can give this.

Thanks,

Antonia Zerbisias
