The Gay Nigger Association of America (GNAA) is an Internet-trolling organization. They have trolled several prominent websites and Internet personalities including Slashdot, Wikipedia, CNN, Barack Obama's campaign website, Alex Jones, and prominent members of the blogosphere. They have also released software products and leaked screenshots and information about upcoming operating systems. In addition, they maintain a software repository and a wiki-based site dedicated to Internet commentary.〔〔 They are listed as a cyberterrorist organization in TRAC. Members of the GNAA also founded Goatse Security, a grey hat information security group. Members of Goatse Security released information in June 2010 about email addresses on AT&T's website from people who had subscribed to mobile data service using the iPad. After the vulnerability was disclosed, the then-president of the GNAA, weev, and GNAA member "JacksonBrown" were arrested.〔 ==Origins, known members and name== The group is run by a president,〔 but little else is known about its internal structure. New media researcher Andrew Lih has stated that it is unclear whether or not there was initially a clearly defined group of GNAA members, or if founding and early members of the GNAA were online troublemakers united under the name in order to disrupt websites.〔 However, professor Jodi Dean and MIT graduate Ross Cisneros state that they are an organized group of anti-blogging trolls.〔〔 Reporters also refer to the GNAA as a group.〔〔〔 The former president of the GNAA, known as "timecop", is known for founding the anime fansub group "Dattebayo". Other members include former president Andrew "weev" Auernheimer, Daniel "JacksonBrown" Spitler,〔 former Debian project head Sam Hocevar,〔 and former spokesman Leon Kaiser. The group's name has been controversial, having been described as causing "immediate alarm in anyone with a semblance of good taste", and as being "intentionally offensive",〔 and "spectacularly offensive".〔 The group denies allegations of racism and homophobia, explaining that the name is intended to sow disruption on the Internet and challenge social norms, claiming it was derived from the 1992 Danish satirical blaxploitation film ''Gayniggers from Outer Space''.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gay Nigger Association of America」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
