Internet Strikes Back: Anonymous Takes Down DOJ.gov, RIAA, MPAA Sites To Protest Megaupload Seizure * 2
    #15689219 - 01/19/12 05:16 PM (12 years, 2 months ago)

from the doj-does-not-understand-what-has-been-unleashed dept

I'll have a more detailed look at the Megaupload indictment tomorrow (there are some really ridiculous claims in there, but also some evidence of bad actions on the part of Mega, which isn't too surprising). However, even if you're 100% positive that Megaupload was a bad player in the space, you have to question both the timing and the process of completely taking down the site/company the day after practically the entire internet rose up to protest the threat of similar takedowns under SOPA/PIPA. For them not to think the reaction would be fast and furious shows (yet again) just how incredibly, ridiculously, out of touch with the internet the DC establishment is.

Within minutes of the site being shut down, and DOJ releasing its statement, Anonymous sprang into action and started taking down a ton of sites -- including websites for the DOJ, the US Copyright Office, Universal Music, the RIAA, the MPAA and a bunch of other sites. They're apparently still targeting more.

Think of this as the flipside of yesterday's protests. Yesterday the internet folks went dark to protest things. Today... following the government's decision to show off its existing censorship powers -- mocking yesterday's protests -- it appears that the industry/government supporters of online censorship are going dark involuntarily... in a different form of protest.

When will the government learn: don't muck with the internet?

I think this is really great and all that these cool hacker groups can attempt to fight the machine that is our government, but is this really such a big deal? Yeah, their websites get shut down for a short while and no one can visit their sites... neat lil trick. These organizations don't revolve around website hits per page, so how is it such a big hurt to them?
However, if some hacker group is able to hack into one of their main servers, delete files, plant viruses, and temporarily shutdown an entire network..... now that would be impressive.
Am I missing something? I probably am...

i doubt they pay much attention to 4chan.  with ~80k users, do the math in comparison with websites like megaupload and torrent sites.

Anonymous arent some collective of cool Morpheous', Neo's and Trinity.

Most of them kids still living with their parents. Closing an organisations website is about the limit of their might.

Not all of them though...some of them are know what they are doing and dont post of 4chan all the time.

as far as i know, 4chan is old and not relevant.  Whenever you say anonymous, it probably has nothing to do with 4chan.

I dunno every once in awhile cool stuff happens.    I'm sure some jerk at teh DOJ considers the website being down a slap in the face.  Maybe he'll bitch to some 60 year old man in congress who doesn't understand the internet and will turn red and sputter angrily.

B. Duh. Hipsters liked everything before it was popular and hate it now that it is popular.

I find a lot of what anonymous does to be obnoxious, but if they're capable of sabotaging the establishment's Internet presence when it's trying to take away freedoms on that Internet, I'm in favor.

This MegaUpload story has been completely fucking retarded, yesterday I saw a Reuters article calling its creator a "kingpin". :foreheadslap:

Why aren't they targeting imgur? Photographs are copyrighted too, last I checked, and yet nobody is calling them entrepreneurs of plagiarism.

Your sig makes me think of all the anons coming out of the woodwork to fuck up the government's digital infrastructure in retaliation for their crazy-stupid jive.

Yes but nobody is gonna build some mega-billion dollar corporation like there are in Hollywood.

Some huge photography monopoly could only happen before people could get their hands on excellent cameras for $100-200, not to mention access to billions of digital photographs on the web.

How could he have been sentenced to 50 years?  He was just arrested a couple days ago.

lol check that guys wiki page dude is such a shady charactor.  One of the many things listed is he bought a company and said he was going to invest 50 million into it, then the shares went up and he sold it right away and profited 1.5million and he didn't even have the 50 million to invest lol

as far as i know, 4chan is old and not relevant.  Whenever you say anonymous, it probably has nothing to do with 4chan.

I dunno every once in awhile cool stuff happens.    I'm sure some jerk at teh DOJ considers the website being down a slap in the face.  Maybe he'll bitch to some 60 year old man in congress who doesn't understand the internet and will turn red and sputter angrily.




I cant stop laughing at that image.





have the real deal

I wonder if any anonymous members browse this site at some point :strokebeard:

I have heard some fairly brutal stories of their work when they revolt, much more than simply closing down websites. I will try and find some links. I'm sure it's all on wiki leaks.
