And of course a little girl "posting nudes" of her eleven-year-old self and "threatening" people in me-and-my-dad-will-kill-you mode justifies mailbombing her with orchestrated, carefully thought-out acts of malice and sabotage.

It sounds as if you've either missed the bulk of the story or are actually construing the empty threats of one child as sufficient justification for her deliberate malicious persecution by an organized group, which wrote up a concise and specific list of actions posted on a board for the malicious to follow.
An 11-year-old responds to accusations of her sleeping with the adult male singer of a local electronic group and of course the onus is on her when she becomes angry and rants that they're just friends. No doubt all little are all quite restrained when being accused of sleeping with people. Yes, that action certainly means she should be mailbombed every hour of every day with the suggestion that she kill herself. She'll certainly learn restraint from that. Besides, the responsibility for her life is her own, apparently, and society should shoulder no blame whatsoever. She'd have behaved just as stupidly if no one decided to torture her over it, right?
Perhaps the way to socialize a little girl is not to berate her for being a whore and then to mailbomb her with the message "kill yourself" when she tries to respond to accusations of being a slut with pathetic and empty threats. As tempting as it might be to have fun destroying her life and watching her crumple in anger and shame, perhaps she should have been shown a bit of empathy and tolerance.
It isn't even as if Anonymous were guilty of this one act of malice. It isn't as if the girl
deserved any of it any more than a loud dog deserves to be beaten, nor is Anonymous's reaction even as mature as the 11-year-old's. They LOL'd and congratulated one another when they learned her father punched her and again when she was reported to be institutionalized.
What's interesting is that Scientology, the empire of arrogance which Anonymous is supposedly poised to fight,
is most criticized for doing that exact same thing. Google "Scientology" and "Operation Freakout" and you'll learn there's no difference on a tactical level between the methods of Scientology and those of Gregg Housh.
