There is no way to tell if someone is credibly "within the Anonymous subculture" and "Anonymous" "releases" conflicting "press releases" with some regularity. There is no organization to "Anonymous", it's just an MSM-manufactured boogeyman to represent any teenager and/or groups of teenagers which knows how to send a lot of requests to a website simultaneously. samstave is also correct that those in power relish this since it gives them a lot of latitude to scare the commoners and get better tracing tools in place.
