Also, such groups keep the government on toes in its activities in a bid to avoid protests by such groups. Groups like Anonymous can be critical in making sure that there is no oppression of the citizens.

For instance, Anonymous has shown concern in children pornography and fought hard against it. It has also attacked government agencies such as FBI leading to reforms and arrest of some individuals. Therefore, due to their positive intentions, I regard such groups as change agents.
