- In mid-February 2009, two videos featuring the physical abuse of a domestic cat named Dusty by Kenny Glenn, who was calling himself "Timmy" were posted on YouTube. The 4chan community, outraged by the abuse, was able to track down the originator of the videos, a fourteen-year-old from Oklahoma, and passed his details to his local police department. As a result of this, a suspect was arrested and the cat was treated by a vet and taken to a safe place.
- Users of 4chan and other websites "raided" Hal Turner (an infamous white supremacist) by launching DDoS attacks and prank calling his phone-in radio show during December 2006 and January 2007. The attacks caused Turner's website to go offline. This cost thousands of dollars of bandwidth bills according to Turner. In response, Turner sued 4chan, 7chan, and other websites; however, he lost his plea for an injunction and failed to receive letters from the court.
- Around midnight on September 11, 2007, a student posted photographs of mock pipe bombs and another photograph of him holding them while saying he would blow up his high school—Pflugerville High School in Pflugerville, Texas—at 9:11 a.m. on September 11. Users of 4chan helped to track him down by finding the perpetrator's father's name in the Exif data of a photograph he took, and contacted the police. He was arrested before school began that day.The whole thing turned out to be a hoax; the "weapons" were toys and there were no actual bombs.
- In May 2009, members of the site attacked YouTube, posting pornographic videos on the site. 4chan claimed responsibility for the attack, one member told the BBC that the attack was in response to YouTube "deleting music".
- The stock price of Apple Inc. fell significantly in October 2008 after a hoax story was submitted to CNN's user-generated news site iReport.com claiming that company CEO Steve Jobs had suffered a major heart attack. The source of the story was traced back to 4chan.
- The private Yahoo! Mail account of Sarah Palin, Republican vice presidential candidate in the 2008 United States presidential election, was hacked by a 4chan user. This followed criticism of Palin and other politicians supposedly using private email accounts for governmental work.[67] The hacker posted the account's password on /b/, and screenshots from within the account to Wikileaks.[68
- In September 2010, in retaliation against the Motion Picture Association of America and the Recording Industry Association of America hiring of Aiplex Software to launch cyberattacks against The Pirate Bay, Anonymous members, recruited through posts on 4chan boards, subsequently initiated their own attacks, dubbed Operation Payback, DDoS'ing the website of all three companies.[78][79] The targeted websites usually went offline for a short period of time due to the attacks, before recovering.

This is just a tiny pinch of 4chan. It's not even counting the thousands of unreported times that they've ruined some poor bastards business/life.
Anonymous DDOS's ACS:Law's (company who pursued file sharers) website.
After Andrew Crossley sneered about it, they got really medieval on his ass and stole a load of confidential info that he'd been stupidly keeping on the server.
ACS:Law ceased trading in Feb 2011, and Anonymous had a lot to do with it.

This. And Russians.
BTW, who the fuck is Souljah Boy? Do I get extra points for having never heard of this fucktwit?
Man, I'm an assistant instructor at a Jiu-Jitsu gym and one of our younger students got his facebook hacked by 4chan and he started posted pictures of impaled women and posting "We are legion" all over the place.
The whole school got pissed but none of us knew who was doing it, except this guy who found the post on 4chan talking about it. He was trying to get everyone to come screw with our school but somehow the tide turned on him, and they all started fucking with him.
I'm not totally sure why, when reading it, it looked like maybe there was some history with this guy, but either way...it resulted in a lot of lolz from us. That was my only real experience with them personally.

LOL typical. Here is one of my favorite Anon inspired YT vids. Search for "princess punk emo crying" or some stupid crap like that to find the hilarious original.
