That is the type of attack from which troll and family might not fully recover. Attacking the two listed websites is just a diversion. Even if they were successful, the troll could just create new websites, so any "victory" on that front by Anonymous would be temporary at best. But as Bungleau points out, the only restrictions on Anonymous are time and their willingness to keep trying. I would add a third constraint - not getting caught. Those are the only limits Anonymous has. Even if the troll manages to hold them off for an extended period of time, he is still having to commit time, resources and money to that effort, which will take away those resources from his normal activities. It may not eliminate his protests, but it will hamper them in the interim. Again, though, that is going to be more of an annoyance than anything. But that's ok. I suspect Anonymous plans to be like John McClain in the first Die Hard movie; a fly in the ointment, a monkey in the wrench, a pain in the ass.....until they wear down the defenses enough to strike at the heart of the opposition and do some real damage. Their greatest asset is the supreme arrogance of their opponent. The troll has gotten away with his actions for so long, he believes he has become virtually untouchable. Shouting an open challenge for dedicated hackers to "Bring It" is the height of ignorance and arrogance, but that's what the troll does best. I think this time, though, it might be a case of "Be careful what you wish for".

Re: WBC told to shut up...
Yeah, saw this too. Apparently Anonymous say they have better things to worry about namely, being supportive of the Libyan protests. Didn't really add up to begin with.

Re: WBC told to shut up...
May have started as a hoax, but Anon got pissed. See their reply here:

Re: WBC told to shut up...
I am way past my bedtime, but a bigger picture is clearly visible in my mind. A dime a dozen fraudster hiding behind the banner of religion is no match for countless impressionable geeks getting kicks on their way to free media. When stood next to the person who controls them, Fred Phelps is nothing.
There's no hoax, but so too is there no fight with WBC. Just very cleverly selected targetting. Interesting stuff.

She spends the entire interview interrupting Anonymous and the host and keeps talking like a bad-ass HS bee-yatch. Anonymous really does not need to do [i]anything[/i[ to Westboro Church because they could never do as much damage as just letting the Phelp's Family talk. I believe the word "ignoramus" fits Shirley Phelps-Roper like a glove.

Re: WBC told to shut up...
Aye, she needs a good smack in the head. Her dopey, arrogant smile says it all. Arrogance works when you know something - she clearly knows nothing, lol. What a dumbell she is. And you can see she has NO CLUE whether her website was just hacked or her stove was shut off so she can't bake anymore cakes. Not much going on behind those uncomprehending eyes. Like the rest of them, she is ignorant to the point of stupidity. I agree with Anon - these people are hardly even worth the effort. Move on, as they try to figure out this quirky new technology known as the internet.
