The Guy Fawkes Mask meme, famously depicted in the graphic novel and film 'V for Vendetta,' has become a global symbol for anonymity and anti-establishment protest. It was first adopted on a large scale by the hacktivist group Anonymous during the 2008 protests against the Church of Scientology, known as Project Chanology. Since then, the stylized face has transcended its fictional origins to represent digital privacy, social justice movements, and the 'Expect Us' mantra of internet culture. In meme format, it is often used to signify a secret hack, a subversive truth, or a humorous take on digital security and online rebellion.
