Rule 7 in effect here.
I mean, it's an unofficial 'group' so there's no reason at all that these are even the same people who have used the name before.
It is official it's just that it's membership and leadership isn't.
Anonymous is basically just a mask for greyhats to operate under when attacking targets who can backlash more specific groups.
Would not be surprised at all if some anonymous hacks were committed by already known hacker collectives who knew they had something big but wanted to avoid retaliation.
They're almost certainly a sock puppet for state actors most of the time.
