"The Com" is like "Anonymous" or "the scene", like talking about the "new york heavy metal scene".

it's not one coherent group but a mix of them, sometimes overlapping but often not. they hangout in the same spaces, sometimes, but also not.



That's how it was (is) on IRC 25+ years ago. The Com sounds like the equivalent of idling on #2600 general.
