The focus of the new Watch Dogs trailer is the Chicago-based hacker group, DedSec. What is this clandestine group's connection with our hero, Aiden Pearce?

The video shows DedSec sending out an anonymous message to the people of Chicago, letting everyone know that the city's central operating system is flawed and that Aiden Pearce's actions are proving it. If just one man can cause such a ruckus and disrupt lives, what would happen if the ctOS were to fall into some truly wrong hands?

While you might think that DedSec and Pearce have similar goals, the hacker group claims that they don't defend his actions. Rather, they're using him as an example to show just how bad things could really get.

Watch the trailer above and let us know your thoughts. Watch Dogs will be released on Nov. 19 for PC, PlayStation 3, Wii U and Xbox 360. The PlayStation 4 version will launch on Nov. 15, while the Xbox One version will launch alongside Microsoft's console.
