Today is a day which has taken on a new meaning over the last few years, with the rise of Anonymous and the popularization of the iconic Guy Fawkes. In the UK, the day represents a celebration of the failure of Guy Fawke's plot to blow up the parliament and assassinate King James. On the internet, its a day symbolizing the continuing existence of the power of a collective to fight against tyranny and oppression of the common man.
In case you didn't watch 2006's V for Vendetta, Alan Moore's version features an alternate tale in which a figure known as V, donning a Fawkes mask takes down a dystopian government. In doing so and dying for his cause, he ends up spawning a whole army of people with the same ideology and anonymous identity to carry on his legacy.
In honor of the event, we'd like to point you guys towards Giant Eye's anonymous items. For every bandana purchased, these guys will send one for free to an Occupy movement branches worldwide.
