Yet they had a lot to say during the Obama years and about Hillary during the 2016 election.

Perhaps they weren't the "good guys" after all.

It's impossible to start a full-blown war overnight. They have been doing it in pieces for years: take down Ukraine's electrical grid, shut off hospital computers across Europe, take money from bank accounts when they shop at Target just before Christmas.

If Anonymous is really the white hat brigade, they've been letting us down too much for too long, and not all of them were trustworthy. Unlike the current crop of state sponsored hackers, a lot of members of Anonymous were arrested and charged.
