higgsboson Posted January 26, 2013 Report Posted January 26, 2013 [b] Anonymous takes down US Sentencing Commission website[/b] [color=#333333][font=arial, sans-serif]Hacktivist group [url="http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/anonymous"]Anonymous[/url] said Saturday it had hijacked the website of the US Sentencing Commission in a brazen act of cyber-revenge for the death of internet freedom advocate Aaron Swartz.[/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=arial, sans-serif]Swartz killed himself just over two weeks ago as he faced trial for [url="http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/hacking"]hacking[/url]an online collection of academic journals linked to MIT with the intent of releasing millions of research papers on to the internet.[/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=arial, sans-serif]The 26-year-old had a history of depression but family, friends and supporters said it was the threat of a prison sentence for an act he saw as a political statement that pushed him to suicide. Since his death, Swartz has become a powerful symbol for hackers and activists fighting internet controls.[/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=arial, sans-serif]The website of the commission, an independent agency of the judicial branch involved in sentencing, was replaced with a message warning that when Swartz killed himself two weeks ago "a line was crossed." In a message posted on the website and in an accompanying YouTube video, the hackers said they had infiltrated several government computer systems and copied secret information they threatened to make public.[/font][/color] [media=]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=WaPni5O2YyI[/media]

higgsboson Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Posted January 27, 2013 [b] WikiLeaks reveals association with Aaron Swartz[/b] [color=#695B4E][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3] In a series of tweets, WikiLeaks disclosed that deceased Internet activist and Reddit co-founder Aaron Swartz may have contributed to the organization and had even been in contact with Julian Assange.[/size][/font][/color][color=#695B4E][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3] WikiLeaks said it was divulging this information [i]“due to the investigation into the Secret Service involvement with #AaronSwartz.”[/i][/size][/font][/color][color=#695B4E][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3] Swartz, who committed a suicide on Jan. 11, was arrested two years ago for breaking and entering into an MIT storage closet and accessing an Acer laptop that he programmed to download millions of scholarly articles from the JSTOR database. The Secret Service took charge of the Swartz investigation two days before his arrest and provided the prosecution with information that led to its harsh pursuit of the 26-year-old. [/size][/font][/color][color=#695B4E][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3] While it is unclear why WikiLeaks decided to disclose Swartz’s involvement with the document archive organization, some have suggested that the alliance may have prompted the US Attorney’s Office and the Secret Service to pursue Swartz more harshly.[/size][/font][/color][color=#695B4E][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3] WikiLeaks confirmed that Swartz was in contact with its founder, Julian Assange, and indicated that he might have been one of their sources.[/size][/font][/color]
