Anonymous Takes Down DOJ, RIAA, MPA and Universal Music
First time accepted submitter EW87 writes "Shortly after a federal raid today brought down the file sharing service Megaupload, hackers aligned with the online collective Anonymous have shut down sites for the Department of Justice, Universal Music Group and the RIAA. 'It was in retaliation for Megaupload, as was the concurrent attack on Justice.org,' Anonymous operative Barrett Brown tells RT on Thursday afternoon."
You mean, "begun the clone wars have." I wonder if this is going to be the first of many instant responses to actions like this.
I guess the war has now begun. Taking down the department of justice is a clear start of all hostility. I am not sure I agree with them. But they have stuff in their pants!
And when they're in prison, they're going to have stuff in the other side.
Life is hard, and the world is cruel
Yeah that's my thought. To be honest, if anonymous thought that jamming turkey basters in their dicks would stop scientology they would probably do it. Then rave about how it worked, while posting pictures.
A new meme would be started, and Goatse.cx would have a new challenger.
Om, nomnomnom...
Begun, the Internet War has!
So say we all
The war against the enemy: our true enemy, of which we have been ignorant for too long! Behold, the face of ultimate evil, the MPA!
Bio questions? Ask me to start a Q&A journal. Computer analogies available for most topics!
Do not stand for this flagrant abuse of our farcical democracy!
If it's farcical, then surely abuse of it isn't a big deal? Kind of like making fun of a clown.
... and then they built the supercollider.
If I had tekn down the DOJ website I'd have stuff in my pants too. It'd be brown and stinky.
It's like protesting the TSA by putting bombs in your luggage.
Considering the track record of the TSA they probably wouldn't even notice the bombs...
All the world's a CPU, and all the men and women merely AI agents

DOSing is not a violent act; it's just a major inconvenience for the users of the site that forces them to go elsewhere for a while. This is more akin to Rosa Parks taking a shit in the back of the bus.
"It" the thing that has begun.
--ow owwowowow.
Anonymous? You must be mistaken - he is a member of Pseudonymous. They just like to call themselves Anonymous because, well, you can't call yourselves Pseudonymous if that's your group's actual name. It wouldn't make any sense.
The RIAA still makes money hand over fist.
Hey man, they lose money all the time, have you seen their accounting records?
Dude you forgot to click 'reply anon'.
Now everybody knows you watch that crap. It's your fault they make more of it.
