That question mark in the title is there, because as a channer (albeit I'm at /an/imal and nature and stay the hell away from /b/ now), I'm familiar with the style of trolls trolling trolls trolling trolls: half the time, beneath the utterance of racist-sexist-homophobic epithet, there is a girl and/or racial minority and/or queer, just watch the beginning of the chanology movement, before there were newfags, the masks does not conceal all the diversity there is in Anonymous.
What I'm saying is, while the hacking of a dead person's email account is in itself disrespectful, what is leaked overall paints Trayvon in a more positive like, and as one ONTD commenter has pointed out, it is heartbreaking now, how Trayvon's inbox was filled with emails from universities he was applying to.
Klanklannon? Sounds like a straw character, like Stephen Colbert, like Soren Bowie from Cracked.com. Something played to the extreme to demonstrate how ridiculous what is being played is.
Or maybe I'm overthinking it, Anonymous can be anyone, including racists. That Awkward Moment when you realise the person you've been friendly with was NOT being satirical at all...
Or maybe this Anon was Zee Agent of Chaos - the anon could have done more damage by deleting all of Trayvon's positive traces, the university emails, the pictures showing how YOUNG 17 is. The anon could have done actual good by turning over the passwords to Trayvon's family. The anon chose to put everything up and let chaos follow. Some who was given access are using it to troll, some other who was given access, Gawker's source, chose to delete the Gmail account so other people can't use it (ProTip: Change the password?).
Bwhahaha, I don't believe anything on Gmail could ever be deleted - on that note, I hope Gmail turn over the account to Trayvon's parents, it could mean a lot to them.
