"After speaking to several reps from Sony stores it appears the actions by Anonymous increased sales for many stores with some store managers telling us that initial sales were up almost 10% – I guess that all publicity is goodpublicity!"

"However it appears that Anonymous' work has once again beenin vain, as several reports throughout the UK especially in London reference consumersassaulting what few protesters were present withwater pistols and chucking food – this is not at all surprising given that the UK is one of the biggest consumers of the PS3 and that not many people side with what Anonymous have done thus far or even understand their cause."

Sony sales representatives received this memo: "Thank you all for your understanding and hard work during the protests on Saturday. I would also like to thank all of you thatdemonstrated positive initiative during this time…we are also pleased to announce that the hard work all of you put in has lead to noted profits…"

I'm sure that is not what they intend, but they have helped out Sony.

In the 1980s before computers were in every home and the Internet became widely available, groups like this were around. They played "Dungeons & Dragons", gave each other wedgies, and got thrown in the dumpster at recess. Spontaniously organized support groups for micro-endowed introverts are nothing new.

And this is my last post on the subject. Let's move on. Shall we?

George Hotz was the effective one and he's signed off on the matter, the rest of these coat-tail riders are just desperate to hold onto any notoriety they can, because when this fades, all they have left is "Magic: The Gathering" and some well-thumbed copies of Maxim.

So how 'bout that new game you just brought home... Let's talk about that, instead... Or one of the old ones you've had for years... Or the spot you noticed on your botty this morning... Anything...

One can probably guess these 'Anonymous' guys are sweaty nerds who have nothing better to do with their time.
