False Flag Hackers Team Up?

“We can’t help recalling that Anonymous came to the aid of WikiLeaks at one point and published a protocol that allowed hackers to attack enemies of WikiLeaks online. Unfortunately, the protocol (reportedly anyway) was not shielded and those who used it left a clear trail for the authorities to follow. In other words, Anonymous provided a utility that generated numerous arrests for government software sleuths….

In defense of LulzSec, the top priority “just announced” is to “steal and leak any classified government information, including email spools and documentation …” But once more doubt creeps in. “Prime targets” according to LulzSec “are banks and other high-ranking establishments.” Say what?

You can see the editorial we posted here: Gay Ops of American Intel?

Unfortunately, the episode has already passed dropped into the memory hole as we predicted. You can search in vain for a reasonable analysis of this operation in mainstream media. All you will find is pontifications having to do with how it is wrong to adopt the personas of people who don’t exist, even with the best of intentions.
