Not quite, if I recall correctly the essence of the few articles I've 
read about them.  Anonymous has participated in big-news stuff like 
hacking and DDOS attacks, especially on corporate and government 
organizations that interfere with speech they want to protect. IIRC they 
originated on 4chan as a group that did all kinds of smaller stuff like 
tracking down Boxy and threatening her in order to get her to remove her 
YouTube videos. So, people they decide are stupid and/or evil don't seem 
to be accorded the right to free speech.
