Amazon Warns Employees About 'Million Mask March' On Seattle HQ Today (geekwire.com)

Posted by timothy on from the and-who-are-you-again? dept.

reifman writes: Amazon is warning employees not to wear clothing with company logos, and telling them to keep their badges out of sight as hundreds of people loyal to the hacktivist group Anonymous plan to march on the tech giant's Seattle headquarters this afternoon. A Facebook message from the Seattle-based group reads, "On November 5th, we will be rallying at Westlake Park in Seattle at 2pm, and then marching to the Federal Courthouse at 3pm, and from there, we shall march to Amazon for some serious lulz!. Teach-ins and rallies will continue throughout the remainder of the day."

    I just walked from Westlake to the Weston, and I saw no protesters.

    The thing is, Amazon customer service is actually pretty great. I've never had a problem with them at all.

    I am curious about the bit where it says "allowance of rape culture."

    I must have missed some headlines or something. What events are prompting that concern?

    How about this? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/new...

    "The hacking group Anonymous has threatened to make public the identities of four boys accused of gang-raping a Canadian teenager who later killed herself after images of the attack went viral."

    Or this? http://www.rollingstone.com/cu...

    A summary of all the things above states essentially that Anonymous will defend the weak and preyed upon by exposing their tormentors.
