"The analysis looks at Facebook pages connected with Anonymous to gain
insight into its international prowess. Yevgeniy Golovchenko, a
graduate student in the school's sociology department, examined 2,770
Anonymous Facebook pages that generated a collective 22.2 million 'likes.' This is just the 'absolute minimal size' of the entire global
Anonymous network, Mr. Golovchenko explained in an interview.
The
point of the study was to 'show the enormity and connectivity of the
Anonymous movement at a global level,' he said. The end result revealed a
network greater than he expected. It was even 'a lot bigger than my
Anon informants thought it would be,' said Golovchenko."
Anonymous still in the news too!
Internet Collective Action is people organizing in a nonhierarchical manner to accomplish a particular goal. The reward is in the doing, and how much or how little anyone participates is completely voluntary, depending on their abilities and commitment to the goal. By this process amazing things can be accomplished. ICA will grow so long as the Internet is free. http://www.lisamcpherson.org/pc.htm is an example of ICA.
