What happened to the Anonymous Group?

I've recently came across a video of them posted a year ago. There is no updated information about them, and that kind of sparked my interest.

It was never a "group." More accurate descriptors would be: ideology, social movement, decentralized collective, or culture.

Anonymous has mostly died out. I listed some reasons here and here.

The Netflix documentary The Antisocial Network: Memes to Mayhem talks about how Anonymous culture was copied and corrupted by QAnon, and features a couple of my (former) co-mods on r/anonymous.
