Building a Better 'Anonymous?'

An anonymous reader writes "A hacktivism panel at the DefCon hacker convention was conspicuously missing its star member Aaron Barr, who dropped out under legal pressure from his former company HBGary Federal, debated how Anonymous could channel its efforts for the greater good. Members of Anon attending the discussion chimed in, too."

Did they wear Groucho Marx glasses or Guy Faukes masks?

"Star"??

[sunderland56]

On what basis is Aaron Barr a "star" anywhere, much less a conference about computer security??

When your (former) company is the poster child for how not to do security [arstechnica.com], I would think your main reason for showing up at DefCon would be if you wanted to be publicly humiliated.
