Anonymous Hacks U.S. Gov’t Website, Threatens to Release Secret Information
The hacker-activist group Anonymous said it hijacked the U.S. Sentencing Commission’s website and was threatening to release secret government information to avenge the suicide of Internet activist Aaron Swartz, according to media reports.

A message that appeared on www.ussc.gov demanded the U.S. reform its justice system or face leaks to news outlets, according to CNN. The Associated Press reported the hackers claimed it had infiltrated several government computer systems and copied secret information. The Sentencing Commission’s website was unavailable Saturday morning.

Maybe they outsourced their IT work, and in the confusion later found out the firm(s) they outsourced the work to were in Asia. That is at least a 24hour window to get someone on site.

Why are there secrets? Shouldn't we all know what our government is up too?

Too many things are being done in secret lately.

Or maybe some of the top tech people in the government are member of anonymous, so such actions would do nothing to help them except delay things.

It appears their demands are for more legislation.

Thread: CNN.COM "'Anonymous' threatens Justice Department"!! (Page 6)

We don't need more legislation, our legal code is already millions of laws, mostly subjective probably for job security for the justice system and attorneys.

I understand what leverage is.

What I don't understand is why they demand what they want... instead of releasing it to the world for the public to know. If it is as incriminating as this group says it is, then the evidence would be enough to discredit the government. Adding support to the anger that American's have with their government.

Releasing the information on the internet like they usually do is not the better idea? They released an encrypted file on the internet and want to give the unencrypted file to the NWO controlled media... why?

Which news media station would actually play on air such an incriminating file, when they basically work for TPTB.
