Anonymous & Lulz Security Statement - Pastebin.com

  • Hello thar FBI and international law authorities,
  • We recently stumbled across the following article with amazement and a certain amount of amusement:
  • The statements made by deputy assistant FBI director Steve Chabinsky in this
  • article clearly seem to be directed at Anonymous and Lulz Security, and we are
  • happy to provide you with a response.
  • You state:
  •   "We want to send a message that chaos on the Internet is unacceptable,
  •   [even if] hackers can be believed to have social causes, it's entirely
  •   unacceptable to break into websites and commit unlawful acts."
  • Now let us be clear here, Mr. Chabinsky, while we understand that you and
  • your colleagues may find breaking into websites unacceptable, let us tell
  • you what WE find unacceptable:
  •  * Governments lying to their citizens and inducing fear and terror to keep
  •    them in control by dismantling their freedom piece by piece.
  •  * Corporations aiding and conspiring with said governments while taking
  •    advantage at the same time by collecting billions of funds for
  •    federal contracts we all know they can't fulfil.
  •  * Lobby conglomerates who only follow their agenda to push the profits
  •    higher, while at the same time being deeply involved in governments around
  •    the world with the only goal to infiltrate and corrupt them enough
  •    so the status quo will never change.
  • These governments and corporations are our enemy. And we will continue to
  • fight them, with all methods we have at our disposal, and that certainly
  • includes breaking into their websites and exposing their lies.
  • We are not scared any more. Your threats to arrest us are meaningless to
  • us as you cannot arrest an idea. Any attempt to do so will make your
  • citizens more angry until they will roar in one gigantic choir. It is our
  • mission to help these people and there is nothing - absolutely nothing - you
  • can possibly to do make us stop.
  •   "The Internet has become so important to so many people that we have to
  •   ensure that the World Wide Web does not become the Wild Wild West."
  • Let me ask you, good sir, when was the Internet not the Wild Wild West? Do
  • you really believe you were in control of it at any point? You were not.
  • That does not mean that everyone behaves like an outlaw. You see, most
  • people do not behave like bandits if they have no reason to. We become bandits
  • on the Internet because you have forced our hand. The Anonymous bitchslap rings
  • through your ears like hacktivism movements of the 90s. We're back - and we're
  • not going anywhere. Expect us.
