I thought for half a second that this guy was working for Apple or something. Seriously crazy to try and patent that logo.

Well, I say that because it's my opinion, if you must know.

And sure, they're probably gonna take down some website I don't really use or make it really slow or something. I'm not mocking anon or anything, some of their actions are quite interesting, and some of them definitely pretty scary and annoying, but come on; they're not a natural force of vengeance that crushes all injustice on the internet. Besides, that french company will probably not even be granted the trademark. So, yeah. I'm calling overhyped.

Meh... overhyped.
Racer-X  +   296d ago
Why do you say that? The fact that they've done this means that Anonymous now can't use it, because the company could press charges against whoever. Good luck finding anon, but the principle still stands.

Hiiiii-freakin-larious. HAHAH. Anonymous is an annoying bunch of cyber terrorists - I wish they'd just go away.

Even if they did just disappear there would be a new group to replace them
Qrphe  +   296d ago
If they eere to get caught (which some of them have), Anonymous would replace them.

People should know by now Anonymous is no specific group of individuals.

being terrorist today is only way to be good guy.

Hahaha! Do they wanna get hacked??
r21  +   296d ago
hahaha maybe they secretly work for Anonymous XD
dcbronco  +   296d ago
I would bet they would like this. If the apparel becomes popular more people will know about Anonymous. I think they might be safe on this.

there's no profit in anonymous, why do they think this would matter? somebody would just come up with a new logo anyway.
DestryLP  +   295d ago
Someone's about to get fucked up, that's for sure. Wouldn't even fuck with the Anons, not worth the risk for a damn picture.
