Facebook Armageddon set for November 5

Facebook is thought to be in danger due to the actions of an anonymous group of internet hackers who have threatened to shut down the social site on November 5. The group behind the threats is believed to have been responsible for crashing the Australian government website in February 2010 and have issued a youtube statement declaring that "Facebook has been selling information to government agencies and giving clandestine access to information security firms so that they can spy on people from all around the world." The November 5 date carries echoes to Guy Fawkes day and one revolutionary man's actions to bring down parliament in 1605. 


Personally, if I had such amazing computer skills and hacking capabilities - I would find better things to do with my time.
