For those unfamiliar, Anonymous is a group you can't join, except by
hanging out for a long time in the internet's most juvenile corners --
usually one of the image boards where everyone posts anonymously.
4chan's /b/ board -- or random -- seems to be the main hangout, though
other chans and IR channels seem to serve as adjunct clubhouses as
well. The hangouts have almost no rules -- though using some variation
of the terms fag, nigger and jew seems mandatory in every post.

Though Fox News famously and hilariously called Anonymous "hackers on steriods (sic)," in large part they have little skill besides knowing how to use a web proxy to mask their IP addresses.

The basic repertoire? Prank phone calls, ordering pizzas to
someone's house, flooding a message board with obscene ASCII art.
Advanced techniques include finding a way into someone's MySpace
account in order to send messages to their friends saying they are gay.
