I actually just finished a book that reminds me of this. Its titled When Mermaid's Sing. Maybe some of you have heard of it? It deals with opposition to cults and the kind of power organizations can have once they get going. The way that cults operate, as well as the philosophies surrounding them is extremely interesting.

From what I've seen and heard, you're pretty far off in this. The whole “Anonymous” thing is only because the website in which they originated (I won't post it due to graphic content) forces the users to post anonymously.

The ones protesting Scientology are completely unrelated to any other anonymous who does other activities. If you browse the internet, you can see that people using the tag “Anonymous” have been doing many things over the years from hacking websites, to attacking racist talk shows to simply sharing ideas and thoughts.

Cheers,
