Anonymous, a group of hackers and activists came to the fore in 2008 
when they attacked the church of Scientology. Since then their 
collective action has come up against corporations and supported the 
Arab revolutionaries. Coleman will share her story of becoming an 
Anonymous confidante and interpreter. She will talk about the 
motivations of the group, the many facets of their culture, and the
increasing importance of hacker activism more generally.
