So it would seem the good (kinda) folks on 4chan have hacked into Sarah Palin's Yahoo e-mail account recently, and have posted screenshots of it on numerous websites.
Now maybe I am cruel in this, but i think we can call this justice; due to the FISA bills the government can break the constitution to spy on us if we are deemed a "threat", so as the American people is it not our duty to spy on true threats to our country's well being?So it would seem the good (kinda) folks on 4chan have hacked into Sarah Palin's... more

WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR:
- Very recently an anonymous poster on /b/ claimed to have hacked Sarah Palin's Yahoo e-mail account.
- Sarah Palin used the e-mail address gov.sarah@yahoo.com for public communication. Several media outlets have confirmed this fact prior to this "incident".
SOURCE: http://thinkprogress.org/2008/09/10/palin-email-privilege/
SOURCE: http://www.commondreams.org/headline/2008/09/15-7
- The e-mail address that the poster hacked was gov.palin@yahoo.com. This second e-mail address, previously unknown publicly, was used for private communcations.
- Yahoo e-mail addresses, unlike .gov e-mail addresses, are not subject to archiving and oversight. This fact has led to controversy from several sources, including fellow Republicans, asking her to release e-mails from her Yahoo account.
- The anonymous poster apparently panicked, and released the password onto /b/.
- Several other posters on /b/ took screenshots of the Inbox and various e-mails.

"Circa midnight Tuesday the 16th of September (EST) activists loosely affiliated with the group 'anonymous' gained access to U.S. Republican Party Vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin's Yahoo email account gov.palin@yahoo.com and passed information to Wikileaks. Governor Palin has come under criticism for using private email accounts to conduct government business and in the process avoid transparency laws. The zip archive made available by Wikileaks contains screen shots of Palin's inbox, two example emails, address book and a couple of family photos. The list of correspondence, together with the account name tends to re-enforce the criticism.
The list of emails include an exchange with Alaskan Lieutenant Governor Sean Parnell about his campaign for Congress.
Another screenshot shows Palin's inbox and an e-mail from Amy McCorkell, whom Palin appointed to the Governor's Advisory Board on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse in 2007.
The e-mail, a message of support to Palin, tells her not to let negative press get to her and asks Palin to pray for McCorkell, who writes that "I need strength to 1. keep employment, 2. not have to choose."
According to Kim Zetter of Wired Magazine, McCorkell confirmed that she did send the e-mail to Palin. "
This could obviously be a fake, but it looks pretty legit to me. Not sure how I feel about hacking someones email though, however using private email to conduct political business is never a good sign.

This is becoming much more than a game, this is generation internet coming to realise how much influence they can have if they just get creative and brand themselves. What started out with a creepy video has developed into a fully recognisable identity that anyone can be a part of by putting on the mask.
Some have tired of the crusade against Scientology, which I could agree with, but the reason I think this whole thing has kept on going is because the concept of anonymous and the voice they've made for themselves fascinates people.

A federal judge in New York has ordered Google to turn over to Viacom a database linking users of YouTube, the Web’s largest video site by far, with every clip they have watched there.
The order raised concerns among users and privacy advocates that the online video viewing habits of tens of millions of people could be exposed. But Google and Viacom said they were hoping to come up with a way to protect the anonymity of YouTube viewers.

The hacker group known as Anonymous may have infiltrated a well known hip hop website and plastered it with racist images/messages - targeting non-white users.
Perhaps Anonymous (?) isn't racist and just wanted to assault the sensibilities of those who frequented the site.
Or perhaps it was another group or individual going by the same name...
- No word from anonymous as of this time.

Jason Beghe has made a YouTube video in which he slams the Church of Scientology. The actor, who played Demi Moore's love interest in G.I.Jane, and has appeared in numerous TV shows including Melrose Place, Chicago Hope, American Dreams, and Cane, calls the church "destructive" and a "rip off."
Beghe, who became a Scientologist in 1994, says the church, which targets celebrities, is "very, very dangerous for your spiritual, psychological, mental, emotional health and evolution." The three-minute video is a teaser for a longer interview, which has yet to be released. "If Scientology is real, then something's f*** up, 'cause it ain't delivering what it promised," says a clearly angry Beghe, who uses expletives throughout.
The actor is billed as the "first celebrity Scientologist to sit down and publicly talk about his experiences after leaving the group." The video was uploaded by Emmy Award-winning journalist Mark Bunker, who has had several run-ins with the controversial church, which he documents on his XenuTV1 profile page. Bunker says he hopes to use his YouTube channel to expose Scientology's "fraud and abuse through streaming video."
Meanwhile help is at hand for those who'd like more bedtime reading featuring the adventures of Xenu, but don't have the estimated $ 380,000 it takes to get to the full text through official Scientology channels. Anonymous exposé site WikiLeaks has obtained an unedited copy of the Operating Thetan manual, which features tales of Xenu, the dictator of the Galactic Confederacy. The documents, which contain instructions for novice OTs right through to Level 8's, can be downloaded from the site in PDF format.
Though the Church of Scientology has failed in its attempts to have the documents on WikiLeaks removed, it has succeeded in having Andrew Morton's biography of Tom Cruise shelved in the UK. "We will not now be publishing the book," said a spokesman for the publishers, Macmillian, who had been in negotiations with Cruise's lawyers after the Mission Impossible star made legal threats. "We have explored every possible option but have concluded that once the potentially defamatory sections are taken out, there is not enough left to make a good enough read."
That's one point to Scientology, and two to the champions of freedom the Church like to call "suppressives." Let the game of cat and mouse continue. Jason Beghe has made a YouTube video in which he slams the Church of Scientology. The... more

No, don't worry, this is not a Rick Roll, it's the real deal. Now 42, Rick Astley is no stranger to the phenomena and says that he finds Anonymous' use of the song in the Anti-Scientology raids "hilarious".
“I think it’s just one of those odd things where something gets picked up and people run with it,” Astley said. “But that’s what brilliant about the Internet.”
One thing that struck me is how Northern and normal he sounds, I've met people in the pub who consider themselves more of a star than this guy. How someone so normal can have such a large, and weird, impact on the world is pretty interesting in itself. If you're intrigued by the real man behind the rick roll, then check him out when he tours the UK with Bananarama and a whole host of other cheesy 80's bands.
"I just think it’s bizarre and funny. My main consideration is that my daughter doesn’t get embarrassed about it.”
I think the horse has already bolted Rick...No, don't worry, this is not a Rick Roll, it's the real deal. Now 42, Rick... more

If you've been following the scientology (no capital is required anymore) v anonymous then I'm sure you'll know what anonymous are after. Their end goal is to remove Scientologys tax exempt status to remove a substantial form of their income. According to the guys at anonymous, (who anonymously posted the claim) they have found evidence that could be demonstrate that Scientology is in violation of the terms of their tax exempt status.
Leaked emails seem to show that the Church have used their influence to try and get politicians elected, including Frank Hibbard as the Mayor of Clearwater.
"See below. Everyone in Clearwater MUST vote. Every vote will be needed to be
sure Hibbard gets re-elected. The alternative is Rita Garvey who is an SP."
If you've got plenty of time to read through the leaked emails then go for your life and post your findings back here. If the claims are true, could this be the un-doing of the Church?If you've been following the scientology (no capital is required anymore) v... more
