I see on the second page there was a thread which was looked and the poster was told to read the rules. After having read the rules I fail to see why it was locked. The above link is the wiki article with information relating to the "Anonymous vs Co$" war. After reading through the information on many different sources, I wonder how this will turn out. There are apparently some IRL protests planned in major cities spanning at least three different continents. Will anyone else be protesting? Do you think this will have any effect on the Co$? Did anonymous start the wrong way with the DDOS attacks? Is PA to corrupted by Co$ to allow any discussion? This is in the news a lot now, lets see what the consensus is.

Anyway, this looks pretty cool. I hope it elicits some response. Although the Scientologists I met when I went to one of their churches were perfectly pleasant people.
kpop appreciation station i also like to tweet some
For those of us following and/or participating, I think we will know a lot more after this weekend. The planned protests in Orlando will be the first and there is already a lot of media coverage on the subject. I think we will be better able to judge the 10th depending on the success or failure of this weekend.
But at the moment they seem to be picking up steam, get more and more mainstream media attention, and for once, they seem to attract regular internet folk for their cause. It might be mainly because one of the main current objectives is to disseminate information about Scientology, which sits well with a lot of people, as opposed to other nefarious activities they seem to indulge in.
As for the DoS attacks, I feel they were there to provoke a response from the church, in order to gain more creadibility in the eyes of public. so far that didnt work.
Either way, I think that this is a pretty interesting event, no matter how you look at it.
I gotta wonder if it was a chantard or not.
Simply because I support the idea, doesnt mean I am condoning or talking of the website attacks. That portion came and went and was what it was (Including illegal).
What we have now is something different. Its grown beyond its inception as a "chan" thing, and is now getting real. This could very well die off a quick death, yet it could be history in the making.
The live protests could be considered harassment of what is a "non-profit charitable organisation" within the US.
Regardless, the mods chose to lock it and to start a new post about the same topic just seems stupid to me.
You brave, brave boys.
Well, I guess since its stupid Im sure you will gladly step out of this thread. The first locked thread had no disussion at all anyway. And no, a protest is NOT harassment of a "non-profit charitable organisation"
Well, they ARE scum of the internet. But that doesnt mean it wont capture peoples attention.
nexus raises a good point though - affiliation or even suggested affiliation with Anonymous is something the PA forums would probably try to avoid.
If an organization, especially a relgious one, can install this type of fear of prosecution for exercising one of our most basic rights as americans, something is wrong.
Also, this discussion is in no way being used as a base for or talking of, any illegal attacks via computers, the internet, or any other means.
Considering the Xenu cult's tactics against detractors I would think anonymity is smart.
Yeah, because that is the reason a bunch of cowards crouched behind monitors aren't more public.
Well some went outside for the Orlando thing.
Unintended benefit though, yeah.
Well, over the next two weekends it moves from "cowards" behind computer screens to real time, real world protesting. I guess thats one less slur you will be able to use.
Yeah, we'll see how many of your crawl out of your rooms.
Also, elitelamer is really dumb.
This is getting locked because nothing's going to happen in here besides us all confirming our impression of 4chan as a haven of idiots and circlejerking over that. Entertaining idiots, to be sure, but still.
