FBI Brings Party Van to Anon Houses

Color me surprised.

Start with a hundred lefty script kiddies, DDoS a bunch of .gov sites and see how many script kiddies you'll have at the end.

So sad with the real world (tm) collides with interwebs lulzeality.

FUCK!
Anon is pro-illegal? This I did not know.
Cant imagine why. Do they not realize they are just killing their economy now and for the future?
Or do they just love their mexican maids who clean up their basement bedrooms?
 
Part of the problem might be - the kids dont realize how serious their actions are, and they dont think their going to get caught in the real world.

Is it "really" worth DDOS'ing a site, and getting to spend several years in a federal prison in return?

In a couple of weeks everyone is going to forget the site was taken down, but a criminal record stays with you forever.

This is what I thought, too. Unfortunately, whether they just didn't realize it or not, they need to pay the price. The law is the law, and while some have some leniency, interfering with someones life and money is bad.

I dont think its so much "pro-illegal" as "anti-everything government"
 
If you've played chess then you know any arrests they are making on this front are merely pawns...probably pawns of pawns.

Are you implying that Anonymous has as intricate of a hierarchy as a kingdom? That's god damn laughable if so. If not, carry on 😛

So, Mastercard and Visa interfering with Julian Assange's life and money is bad, which triggered the hackers' attacks on those sites? They are being sued for lawbreaking.

I don't deal in absolutes. That's an instance where anon's actions were completely justified imo. Same with the HBGary stuff. HB totally deserved all of that.

Or... they're smarter than you or I. Think about it, late teens/early twenties, getting 3 squares and a bed for free at a federally funded luxury resort. Sure beats unemployment or pounding the pavement looking for a job, don't you think?

Pretty much this.

Yea, along with the constant threat of ass pounding. Smart they are. 😛

Humm, look for a real job, or get ass-raped in prison.

Let me think about that one for a little while, I dont know if that is a fair trade?

And I suspect that those suits will lose. Wikileaks was openly breaking US law. Visa and Mastercard then cut off the ability of people to use their services to transfer Wikileaks money. I'd bet that Visa and Mastercard have clauses in their agreements for their services that gives them the right to withdraw their services if the money is being used to support something illegal.

No, anything is better then prison I have to imagine...at least that's how i've always thought of it.
 
Wikileaks was openly breaking US law. .

That is debatable. Ever hear of this thing called "freedom of the press".

Even if Julian Assange is brought back to the USA, there are lots of legal theories debating whether the government can even prosecute him. The only person that might have broke the law, is the person that released the papers to start with.

If the government prosecutes Julian Assange, are all of the people that copied content from wikileaks going to prosecuted as well?

What did Wikileaks do illegally?

Probably nothing. The government is pissed that someone speaks up and digs up the filth on what is going on.

On top of all of that Julian Assange was not in even in the USA when he posted the content to wikileaks. So does the US government even have anything to stand on.

You know, I'm not even going to argue with you. Apparently you can't differentiate between publishing legally obtained information and knowingly soliciting and publishing illegally obtained information.

No. Prison sucks & no matter what ignorant people believe, it's not a fucking resort.
