WE ARE LEGION: ANONYMOUS AND THE WAR ON SCIENTOLOGY
By Jeff Jacobsen

Scientology is bad so some people from Anonymous decided to protest against them. So they formed Project Chanology. This is a cool kind of thing that can actually happen because of the Internet. Communities can form and people can organize cheaply and quickly online, and you don't need a leader, just like bees don't need a leader. Because this is so easy nowadays, Project Chanology is probably an example of how protests will be organized in the future when an online community gets mad enough about something to form a collective action and go out to the streets and protest.
