Until I got to this:
The hackers say they've infiltrated several government computer systems and copied secret information that they now threaten to make public.
Is that the one stream media mouthpiece CBS saying that or is 'Anonymous' saying that, because if you mean what you say, why threaten?
Do! Or do not. There is no "threaten".
You know the players and can see the board. If you know history and you know human nature, you can see where this is going. Again.
Time for cyber space super heroes with the power: knowledge. You know what they say, "With great power..."
So...do 'they' help our watch to become the ones who finally live up to those ideals?
Or do they fold and just cash in like everyone else? I guess we'll see.
Because it is the threat of release not the release itself that is the source of their power. They have made a list of demands for reform of the judicial system and have threatened release if those reforms aren't forthcoming. So this is essentially a blackmail attempt. Not that I necessarily have a problem with it.
