Anonymous attacking creators of indefinite detention bill
Anonymous attacking creators of indefinite detention bill
15 December, 2011, 21:20


With President Obama read to sign away the freedoms of Americans by inking his name to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012, opponents are already going after the lawmakers that made the legislation possible.
The act, abbreviated as NDAA FY2012, managed to make its way through Congress with overwhelming support in recent days, despite legislation that allows for Americans to be detained indefinitely and tortured by authorities for the mere suspicion of committing “a belligerent act." The Obama administration originally decreed that they would veto the bill, only for the White House to announce a change of heart on Wednesday this week.

With the passing of the act almost certain at this point, hackers aligned to the massive collective Anonymous are taking a stab at staking out the politicians that helped put the bill in the president’s hands.

Very interesting; I am still very leary of Anon....

"Joining the military does not mean that you will be defending the country. The purpose of the U.S. military should be to defend the United States. Period. Yet, one of the greatest myths ever invented is that the current U.S. military somehow defends our freedoms. First of all, our freedoms are not in danger of being taken away by foreign countries; if they are taken away it will be by our own government. It is not a country making war on us that we need to fear, it is our government making war on the Bill of Rights. And second, how is stationing troops in 150 different regions of the world on hundreds of U.S. military bases defending our freedoms? It is not the purpose of the U.S. military to change regimes, secure the borders of other countries, or spread democracy at gunpoint. The Department of Defense should first and foremost be the Department of Homeland Security."--Laurence Vance--

I'm leery of them too. They could actually help promote this by doing stupid things to prove they were right about the bill...

About time they did something.

They need to collectively gather intel to put these crooks in jail where they belong.
If they were smart, they wouldnt be releasing information until they acquired everything they needed.
If they are really as 'informed and able' as they claim to be, hack the system and get the message out around the world simultaneously.

I agree; I know memory doesn't always suit me so well, but I could have sworn Anon had a roll in the organization of the Arab Spring. If that is the case, then Anon would in all likelyhood be part of the NSA.
