Thank you and a star for your reply...
They do not need excuses to tighten the internet. A lot of the response in hactavism is an effect of them already trying to control the internet. They
are taking away human rights left, right and centre. Freedom is not something we inherit. It is something we fight for and define generation to
generation.
Look at WL.The idea of WL is correct unbiased journalism based on objective evidence. A novel idea it todays news circus. Evidently it survived but
it is not robust enough. First the US government financially tried to strangle the company by denying payment through mastercard, visa and paypal.
Then it allowed the site to be ddosed. The response was vast 10 of thousands of cyber attacks across the net and within weeks nearly 2000 WL site
mirrored.
#Op Tyler is a response to this action. It will be decentralised. Downloaded on many computers and running through an encrypted tor network. It will
be much harder to take it down. Donations will work through bitcoins an encrypted anon internet currency.
Think its a bad idea if you want. I see it as evolution. Why do we come to ATS. Many of us come because we seek truth. Truth is rarely found in the
MSM these days. It is full of propaganda. People should have the right to publish information without being witch hunted. Journalism in a free world
should not be a dangerous profession. Anonymity no longer needs to be a tool of the rich and famous it should be accessible by anyone.
The news channels and the major newspaper and in the power of a few. The internet is the last place where you can access the truth. Regardless of the
actions of Anon the PTB will try and control it. This is a response to that action. Anytime there is a curfew of freedom of speech on the internet
there will be a response.
These responses can be seen as acts of civil disobedience. They are forms of activism. Healthy and integral to a democratic system. Do you think the
US would exist today if it was not for forms of activism and people stepping out the remit of law. Do you think women would have gained the vote in
the UK. If people were not willing to break the law. Have your convictions been every been stong enough to want to break the law. It can be an
empowering experience.
As I said it is easy to criticise. But adleast people are trying to do something and for the first time in history these protests and not regional.
They cross geopolitical boundaries. This is a paradigm shift in protests which are both digital and analogue in nature.
Basic Anon on the net is easy enough to achieve if you follow a few basic rule. People arrested for leaking to WL have been caught because they did
not follow the rule. If you want to achieve Anonyminity on the net I have basic instructions on this thread,,

There are a number of places you can go where people can help you with these matters....
