At the same time, the US and UK pirate parties have put out an open letter to Anonymous requesting that they cease Operation Payback's DDOS attacks and focus on taking a legal route to fix intellectual property law."

    I'm an author. Anonymous and their ilk are oppressing me by stealing my property. They're the ones who should piss off.

    Do I think what Anon is doing is "right"? Nope.
    Do I think that they should keep doing it? Absolutely.

    Sounds like you don't actually understand what the words "wrong" and "right" mean. Either that or you're some sort of sociopath.

    And yet, from your post, you sound like a 12 year old.

    At some point in the future, a horrible thought is going to strike you: "Maybe I'm not as clever as I think I am?"

    For your sake, I hope that happens sooner rather than later.
