Synopsis – What to Expect from “We Are Legion: The Story of the Hacktivists”
We Are Legion: The Story of the Hacktivists is a documentary that follows the rise of the hacktivist collective Anonymous. The film begins with the group’s emergence in 2008, when they launched a series of attacks against the Church of Scientology. From there, the film follows the group’s evolution from a loose collective of hackers and pranksters to a powerful force for change.
The film focuses on the group’s most prominent members, including Commander X, a former US military officer who has been living in exile in Canada since 2012. The film also features interviews with members of Anonymous from around the world, including those living in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. Through these interviews, the film reveals the motivations behind the group’s activism, from their opposition to government corruption and corporate greed to their support of free speech and civil liberties.
The film also looks at the group’s battles with law enforcement, as well as their successes and failures. In addition, the film examines the ethical dilemmas posed by Anonymous’ tactics, such as their use of distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. Ultimately, the film paints a portrait of a group of people who have found a way to use technology to fight for a cause they believe in.
