  This is wrong. The government snooping around I mean. We are getting more and more power through global networking and the government feels like its loosing control over us. So as a reaction they want to put the squeeze on, bringing us closer to a big brother society. Invasion of our privacy is, in my opinion, the biggest breach of human rights. The same same human rights that allow muslim extremists to preach anti-christianity in the streets of london. The same human rights that allow prisoners to earn a games console on good behaviour and play pool, making them unafraid of incarceration. This is the biggest bout of hypocrisy I have ever seen from this government and it almost makes me wish for a civil war just to set things straight in this messed up spineless country

  Anonymous why don’t you target oil companies, stop pussyfooting and change the world. I don’t believe in global warming and all that crap. But wars are started over oil. Change the need for oil to hydrogen and switch the world from a type 0 to a type 1 civilization. You have so much power, you play silly little games with silly websites. Do something meaningful. When oil runs out or even gets slightly, it will get VERY ugly. 

  Maybe I’m wrong, maybe all they have is ddos attacks and posting people’s logins online via an SQL injection.

  I really dont understand the actual purpose behind those hacking of Government websites and blog. I think hackers is now seems to be getting involved in politics as well in technology and they are trying to break all rules for their own benefits. Which i think is wrong way of protesting.

  There’s always protests, even when public opinion is against them. 
  Take for example the way Margharet Thatcher handled the miner strikes; According to opinion poles the british mass clearly supported her, yet the strikes still went on and on and on.
  One way or the other these monkies want to impose their will over the british people by destroying democracy. None of these protesters ever argues for a referrendum, they just want to have things done their way.

  Your right but the fact is that they are aware that beyond oil companies, the world is turning into a polite mans nazi state. And they’re trying to make a point about it. We’re loosing our freedoms everyday. The colonization of our rights begins on the web and then they secure it in this world. We need to be talking about this before this world starts looking like a pretty version of an orwell novel.

  Yes John that’s what I mean. One way or another, protest, often violent, gets its way in the end. In Thatcher’s case they got rid of her because, inter alia, she was perceived as “confrontational”; after which Labour got in for 13 years…..

  the foreign office made a right fool of itself saying it would consider storming the embassy of another country. arrogant,pompous typical Tory behaviour. The Swedish can come to London and interview Assange.
