Online Gamers Anonymous

vast breed of gamers. Gamers can be broken down into various categories based on a plethora of things. From their approach to games in general, to how much time or effort they dedicate to gaming, all the way to what games they play and how they play them, gamers cover a wide array of personalities and traits. For me however, gamers can be broken down into five categories: the casual, the dirty casual, the try-hard, the completionist, and the cheater. First off there is the casual gamer. These…

or attracting is this new post modern gamer society whom are fed up with the vulgar environment that #Gamergaters have created. Kluge mentions the phenomena of “Gamers are dead” referring to the stereotypes of an avid gamers and that its actually a good thing for the gamer community.

As the internet’s ever expansive growth continues, the activity of hacktivist groups advances. Although hacktivists have been targeting different governmental websites and networks, their actions are an act of protest and civil disobedience. In addition, the idea of a hacktivist has become misconstrued by the deceived public. The idea of a hacktivism needs to be made more transparent and the actions of these hacktivist groups need to be made more clear and differed from cybercrime or…

paper, I will argue that the group Anonymous aren’t criminals and their actions are ethical. I will argue that this thesis is true from the utilitarianism view; they are hacking for the good of the people. Some examples I will include are Project Chanology, Hal Turner, and Operation DarkNet. I will also consider the opposing position that Anonymous are bad and unethical. I will argue that it is mistaken because of misknowledge of the operations and what Anonymous’ purpose is. Also, that hacking…

Anonymous is a group of hacktivists that wanted to expose corrupt companies and businesses while starting mass awareness and staying unknown. It started out as joke on 4chan, an imageboard website in 2003. They went by the motto “none of us are as cruel as all of us.” Anonymous doesn't have a form of organization or logistics but the way an operation is started is by a member talking to other members about an idea. If they think is a good idea, they will support it. If not supported, the idea…

Not long ago it would have been unimaginable that a group of random people working remotely from anywhere in the world would be able to band together to electronically fight common enemies. However, recently a hacktivist group identifying as Anonymous has risen in power and size with the goal of fighting anyone they deem threatening to innocent people. Their operations and tactics range from gathering and leaking sensitive and/or restricted information from large corporations, to hacking…

a great game with graphics that are sure to grab your attention. While it cannot offer a huge payout, it certainly does enough to counteract this. The Wild symbol is to be lauded, as well as the expansive “Auto Play” feature – allowing the casual gamer the chance to play without really ‘playing’ as it were, and giving the game a few thrills and twists along the way. While ideal for the casual player, this game may not tempt in experienced players that are after bigger risks and higher payouts.…

Gambling has had a long and deep-rooted history throughout time and even in the founding of the United States. Lotteries were used in the early American colonies to establish and fund themselves along with instituting famous universities, such as Harvard, Yale, and William and Mary to name a few. Beginning in the early 1900’s, states began banning gambling because of its association with corruption and violence. It has long been proposed that gambling from a Christian viewpoint is a sin…
