Left Wing Kooks Using Vandalizing and Theft To Advance ......

[Felix_Nietsche]

.....Their cause.
They victimize the conservative counter-protestor organization Protest Warriors (www.protestwarrior.com) stealing credit card numbers and making donations to leftists organizations. Here is a letter from protest warriors.


HACKER CAUGHT
In January 2005, Jeremy Hammond and the hacker group collectively known as the "Internet
Liberation Front" gained illegal access to the ProtestWarrior server. Thousands of customer credit card
numbers were then stolen for the purpose of making millions of dollars in donations to various
leftwing organizations. In early February, ProtestWarrior discovered the illegal breach and the
identity of the criminals responsible.

Using the hacker recruiting ground www.hackthissite.org, Jeremy Hammond put together and led a
team of politically motivated "hacktivists" to probe the ProtestWarrior server for months until an
exploit was found. When an obscure vulnerability was discovered in the PW server's newsletter
subscription code, they managed to upload malicious files that gave them the ability to execute
commands on the server.

Upon discovering the hack, we immediately began collecting information on the breach and managed
to penetrate Jeremy's inner circle. We then collected evidence that more than 5,000 credit card
numbers had been stolen by Jeremy and the "Internet Liberation Front" and that they were planning on
doing the following:

*charge hundreds of dollars per stolen credit card number as donations to various left-wing
organizations by using an automated donation submission script

*send the entire ProtestWarrior HQ database (complete with usernames, passwords, and operation
details) to left-wing groups hostile to ProtestWarrior (including the entire contents of our mail
server)

*upload all credit card numbers and other sensitive customer information to hundreds of
anarchist and left-wing sites (specifically Indymedia) as a downloadable zip file

*anonymously send press releases and material to thousands of media contacts to boast of the
malicious hack and the millions of dollars defrauded, and to publish any and all sensitive
information regarding the ProtestWarrior organization

*erase the entire PW server

*launch simultaneous attacks on other conservative sites

Upon discovering their plans, we contacted the FBI and the Secret Service, who immediately began
investigating the case. We were able to provide them with a tremendous amount of evidence regarding
the breach, the criminals responsible, and their plans to commit massive credit card fraud. We
also reported the incident to all credit card companies involved to make sure that ProtestWarrior's
customers were protected. With our help, the FBI was able to thwart Jeremy and his army of
"hacktivists".

After contacting the FBI, we immediately hired a security consultant and removed all sensitive
information from the server. We eventually moved the server to a new box, where we blocked off the
system and data files from the web server and changed the online store software to a super-secure
system that stores zero sensitive customer information. In addition, we hired an internet security
firm to run a series of vigorous vulnerability tests on our server, which our server all passed.

The reason we haven't made this announcement earlier is that our customers were already protected
and we didn't want to jeopardize the ongoing FBI investigation of Jeremy and his "hacktivist"
army.

The reason we're posting this now is that Jeremy, in a desperate move, is publicly appealing to
the internet community regarding his pending FBI investigation. Using his site www.freejeremy.com,
he is trying to solicit donations for his defense fund and generate public sympathy while
spreading slanderous disinformation regarding ProtestWarrior and the events leading up to the FBI
investigation.

We will soon be releasing much more information and details regarding the incident and the ongoing
FBI investigation. Rest assured, justice will be served.

I don't understand this "win at any cost" mentality.

We have elections, the liberals lost, but they still want to overturn the election, block nominees on a mass scale never done before, and do anything to screw up a conservative's life.

Why don't they just spread their ideas and try to win the next election? Its coming sooner than you think.

Are you referring to Watergate? Or is the "win at any cost" mentality restricted to liberals?

Great point. Don't expect a response from BGC though.

not really suprising.

The GOP was not nearly as united with Nixon as the liberals are united today. Most in the GOP had a sense of honor back then (which continues today).

"Win at any cost" seems to be a universal trait in modern liberalism, no disent from the party line is allowed.

Wow. Just wow.

You are implying that most liberals have no sense of honor, then or now.

And you are outright stating that ALL modern liberals have a "win at any cost" mentality.

And since your earlier post suggests that "win at any cost" includes committing crimes, then you are suggesting that ALL liberals are willing to commit crimes in order to win.

Wow. Try thinking before you spew next time.

Talk about putting words into people's mouths.

I have to tell you, that is not an honorable thing to do. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
