Breaking News: Australia bans service denials - Anonymous attacks foiled!
Wait, getting people to hold down their F5 key is considered hacking? Hell, it only went down for an hour, people who get Dugg or mentioned on This Week In Tech go down for more than that, depending on the host. Instead of organizing these stupid things, why not write a goddamn letter to your congressman? Do something in real life, nobody cares if a website goes down or everyone on facebook/twitter changes their avatar to a solid black colour. People do something if [B]YOU[/B] do something,

[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;20144417]I heard that because Australia has compulsory voting, that the voting day is used to just get really really drunk, which would explain why they have such an oppressive government. They're so shitfaced that they elect idiots.[/QUOTE] What? Nearly all the voting are held at civil institutions, ie schools. I don't think there's any chance of voting under the influence. I think that it doesn't matter which party is in power; they'd all push consorship for our [i]own protection[/i] (except for maybe the Greens). I read that the Labor party (the one that is in power now) opposed ISP censorship about 10 years ago.

4chan faggots are dumb. Why go about posting shit like this [img]http://www.zilefile.com/files/10220_c6vf6/dumbshits.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=Hunterbrute;20148147]4chan faggots are dumb. Why go about posting shit like this[/QUOTE] So they can do the attack?
I was hoping 4chan would attack censorship in general, but guess they care more about porn than games down there.
This just in: Australia bans Australians. *2 days later* This just in: We have penetrated the media lockdown of Australia, it appears the country nuclear bombed itself in a desperate attempt to cleanse the people. It is a horrible day for families everywhere.
Speed bumps on the highway.
Copypaste of letter for the lazy. Open letter concerning Australian Internet Censorship. To whom it may concern, and for the unaware public. Do not be confused about the intentions behind our attacks on various Australian government websites. Various media have falsely reported that our efforts are in defence of pornography. This is not about pornography. This is about freedom. The fact remains that under this proposed Internet censorship scheme over time the freedoms of Australians will continue to be eroded, all in the name of saving us from a threat that exists only in the minds of a vocal and very uninformed minority who wish to impose their morals and values on the public at large. We are in no way encouraging child pornography; however other courses of action should be encouraged, for Australia's "Cyber Safety Plan" creates problems in itself. The fact is that "banned" content can be posted on ANY website, at any time; introducing these tools is only a way to silence the selected few. Once the tools are put into place, they can and will be abused, as it has happened throughout history. Costs to taxpayers are estimated to be $44.2 million. This money could be put to far better use. Furthermore, the creation of such an announced filter is in direct violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights Charter of 1948, Article 19; which states: "Everyone has the right of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers." No democratic government should ever favour one community's views over others, be it religious, political or otherwise; it is discriminatory toward minority groups. This censorship has been nothing more than a modern day prohibition and attack against freedoms that the Australian populace previously enjoyed. We will not back down until this illicit censorship has been removed; the freedoms and rights of the Australian public must be restored. Further attacks will continue on a much larger scale in a wide variety of forms. Attempts to stop us will only bring more negative publicity to this internet censorship campaign and make the Australian government look disgraceful in the eyes of the international public. We are Anonymous. We do not forgive. We do not forget. We are Legion. Expect us.

A noble cause, performed by mentally ill children. The censorship is very extreme though. Anyways, if I knew that porn would soon be banned I would run to a place that sells blank DVDs. Start downloading as much porn I can, burn them to DVDs, and sell them.

4chan is stupid and this won't help anything
When i imagine 4chan, i imagine the typical "LOL HURP DURP FTW COOL STORY BRO" socially inept nerd, which there's about 5 in my school; and the rest of them are just bandwagoning whenever they hear someone say something 'cool'. Whenever they think they're helping the world, they're just making pricks of themselves and still won't live out of the name that they're just a group of anonymous nerds who tell dumb jokes. And i seriously want to punch ANYONE that says "HURP DURP" or something like that in real life.

The saddest thing is that the email was well-informed and well-educated and stood a chance of being taken seriously until the "We are legion" bit.
