Hi,I know I pinged you a while on this and then disappeared. Sorry about that.
With all the misinformation about Anonymous, like that whacky article in the WSJ today about them potentially taking out a power grid, I feel like a reality check on what they can/will and can't/won't do is in order.
I'm not in a rush for this, though. Could we maybe talk next week?

Hi,Paul Wagenseil suggested I contact you. I run a general-interest site on technology - for people who are interested but not aficionados.I"d like to provide them with a "101" on Anonymous - especially in light of the SOPA and MegaUpload attacks form last week - and the sneaky Twitter link.The main thing I want to bring across: Is anonymous an organization? (Which, I know it's not.) I especially want to look at the differences of opinions on tactics - for example, pro or anti DDoS attacks, as well as duping people into launching a DDoS with that Twitter link.Care to provide some perspective?Thanks, Sean
