That's not much of a threat. They can't get a distributed denial of service attack going against "Wall Street" and the NYSE. They can perhaps interrupt some minor web sites... ho hum... but there are too many supersonic HFT million mile a minute computers busy for the few Anonymous hackers to have an effect. It would be like them peeing in the ocean.

Meanwhile, they'll get arrested, gaoled and good riddance. If they'd stick to defending freedom, and legitimate causes it would make some sense.

The average citizen will not be amused to have their livelihood damaged which they will find happens - perhaps they don't know their pension funds run through "Wall Street" and the NYSE.

Running a botnet to attack producers isn't "energy", it's just crime. Osama found out what attacking Wall Street could result in.
