Default Largest attack by Anonomous yet. Multiple sites down, including government

An organized multi hack occured today by Anonomous bringing done multiple major sites, including FBI.gov, Department of Justice and Whitehouse.gov is currently under attack. Also included is various music sites. This was in retaliation against the federal raid against the Megaupload site earlier today. This just scratches the surface.

Who can trust what the obama administration says?

News from The Associated Press (http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_INTERNET_PIRACY_INDICTMENT?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME &TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2012-01-19-19-04-03 - broken link)

The Electronic Frontier Foundation, which defends free speech and digital rights online, said in a statement that, "This kind of application of international criminal procedures to Internet policy issues sets a terrifying precedent. If the United States can seize a Dutch citizen in New Zealand over a copyright claim, what is next?"

First Guantanamo, and now another Nazi policy Obama followed. Randomly arresting people in other countries.
Wondering when Obama will go after the big fish - the public library. Offering copyrighted material at no charge, readily to every citizen. Every library must be shut down immediately, and all librarians must be arrested.

The best thing about this is showing that any agency or company who think they can have control the way the internet is used, especially sharing, is kidding themselves. It doesn't really matter who is doing what, attempts at overcontrol can and will be thwarted. Even by a 15 yr old. Everyone better stop with the old style thinking and make this work for them. The ones who do will be successful, the ones who don't will die off. Just a matter of time.

People who want to get on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube > People who will re-elect Obama for catching Bin Laden.

Personally, I like my free internet.
