The Dark Web is full of honey pots set by the FBI. Chances are, you're never going to find an actual hitman for hire without it being a sting operation.

Why would I take the time and energy out of my day to jump through hoops to prove my case. At the very likely chance that someone like you will refute it anyways and waive it off like you did with my comment?

Not worth it.

Oh, I looked at the back of the book. Yeah I didn't know they dared trying to mess with the FBI, VISA, MasterCard, PayPal, NATO and more.

Yeah, that's going to paint a lot of targets on you. Wondered what got into their minds to do all of that.

What about them? Pffft...dude, they'd rather make fun of lolcows all day and pretend that they're still in their edgy teenage years where worshiping Hitler and dropping the N word was the coolest thing to do to them.

Yeah I mean, it would really be nice right now to have some body around that can contend and combat the legions of crazy QAnon/MAGA people online. But I guess that really isn't in their interest.

It took SOPA/PIPA to get them to act for a while. I don't know, they run off of arbitrary rules only they themselves know to keep the mystique up. It's like when we needed them the most - they're sometimes there. When we kinda sorta don't need/want them, they just show up randomly.

I think the dawning of the Chromebooks was really a huge sign. Sure you could install Linux on some of the early models. But then Google just caught on to this and decided to take even that away. So now you had all of these Chromebooks that can only ever run ChromeOS and whatever Google approved that could run on them. You just can't do jackshit with them because they were also online-only.

And those were pushed onto everyone, particularly schools.

You can edit the main post you know.

And anyone that performs any successful hack, can also declare themselves as part of Anonymous.

It stopped being about self-defense, if anyone ever bothered trailing what Israel had been doing.

But, go watch the prime minister declare everyone anti-semantic anyways over this.

They don't know how to do that and never did.

It's always been "Uhhh let's have people make Firefox accounts, yeah!" When, in this day and age, the last thing people need is yet another account to keep track of.

"Lets get into AI, yeah!" Said no one ever.

Like, is it too much to fucking ask for a simple, privacy-centric, security (not overreaching), performance priority browser?

I mean look around how many forks of Firefox that there are out there, having to do the legwork because Firefox isn't that much of the shit it thinks it is.

I think their direction has gone astray mixed with losing general interest mixed with aging mixed with getting caught. I think Anonymous now has just turned into a parody of itself thanks for 4chan (yeah I know it was born there) who turned it into a symbol of just shitposting trolling than doing the right things.

They used to have been prominent during the days when SOPA and PIPA had been brought up. Since then, activity has dwindled.

How defeatist of you, Mozilla. Whatever happened to your pride? Oh, it went a long time ago when you make a big deal about going 3.0 and how you claimed to have improved Firefox's performance. Been a long time, but Firefox remains ever more the same as it did way back then, just cluttered with more features that weighs it's performance.
