Anonymous hackers known for being horribly confusing to read/write, and more recently known for being booted off of Google+, are in tech news again, this time for picking another futile fight against a tech giant. 

This time their opponents are PayPal, the ubiquitous web payment service. Anonymous, motivated for revenge because of PayPal’s help in bringing about the AntiSec arrests, has called for users via Twitter to close their PayPal accounts on their Twitter. Slightly terrifying, the tweet also mentions this call for legal boycotting as being “the first piece.”

So who knows, perhaps Anonymous will start their OWN PayPal and totally show those PayPal guys what’s up. It worked for Google+, right?
