After being banned from Google’s new social networking site, Google+, a bunch of enterprising Anonymous members have responded by launching their own social networking site. It’s the social networking industry equivalent of saying, “Pfft, whatever, I’ll just post the photos of my drunken weekend over here instead.”
More officially, however, Anonymous members are promoting their own Anon-Plus as a social networking site that allows sign-ups to remain, well, anonymous. Which does sort of seem to miss the whole point a bit, but hey.
“As some of you know we got banned from Google+ due to some of our content. What we didn’t know at the time is that we were just one of a handful of Anonymous accounts that was silenced,” says an anonymous Anonymous spokesperson.
“This is the sad fact of what happens across the internet when you walk to a different beat of the drum. We’ve all heard the stories of activists being banned from FaceBook, Twitter, YouTube, and governments blocking their people from these sites as well through organized black outs. That day has came to an end. Not only did a few people organized an Operation ageist Google+, but we have started to build our own Social Network.
“This is one social network that will not tolerate being shut down, censored, or oppressed – even in the face of blackout. We the people have had enough…enough of governments and corporations saying what’s best for us – what’s safe for our minds.
“The sheep era is over. The interwebz are no longer your prison.”
Yay, non-conformity.
