Every group, cult, organization, company habitually uses a collection of certain vocabulary that is native and unique to that group.
If you study certain groups for awhile, you get to know what type of vocabulary that is.
Of course you can never be certain who´s who on the internet. But judging from speech patterns you can make an educated guess.
Can someone explain to me how a loose-knit subculture of hacker children from 4chan and IRC, formerly known for not much more than defacing MySpace pages and other nuisance hacks/pranks, suddenly takes a public stance on a socially complex issue? And part of the public stance of this "Anonymous" group involves the very un-anonymous action of public space protests.

Interestingly enough many of these anonymous-members or allies thereof, use scientology-speak. Which, for me, means some of them are either CoS members or ex-Cos members (freezoners).
