Anonymous: peering behind the mask
Are members of the ‘hacktivist group’ Anonymous defenders of truth and seekers of knowledge, or simply a bunch of cyber terrorists? Jana Herwig investigates
Researcher Jana Herwig dons the mask of Anonymous
When Anonymous first made big headlines in early 2008 with its protests against the Church of Scientology, dubbed Project Chanology, it was not yet apparent that Anonymous would be here to stay.
Three years later, Anonymous has not only gained a sizeable collection of adversaries and critics – including government agencies, IT security companies and digital rights advocacies who criticise its methods – it has also won scores of secret and not so secret admirers, especially among the highly social media literate, digital creative class.
The reputation of its members as defenders of truth and seekers of knowledge, digital avengers who cannot be lied to because they will hijack the emails of those who try, seems to strike a chord with many.
What has remained unclear is just who or what Anonymous is.

The police for their part in some of his charges were about to enter the square, but were contained. The tranquility began arriving at 6:30 in the morning when the last van left. (googletranslate)
#spanishrevolution. proliferan las Asambleas de Barrio
Asamblea de barrios – Plaza del Carmen
Desde Sol ya podemos confirmar la afluencia masiva a las Asambleas de Barrio programadas para hoy a las 12,00 en distintas localizaciones por toda la ciudad de Madrid y localidades colindantes.
Los primeros datos que hemos recibido en Acampada Sol de los portavoces de cada Asamblea, apuntan a que millares de personas se han movilizado este mediodía para hacer oír su voz y voto en los barrios.
La convocatoria que, en principio, ha reunido a barrios y ciudades de todo Madrid, también se ha extendido por diferentes poblaciones en todo el territorio español. Un primer contacto con los portavoces muestra que en los barrios de Aluche y Carabanchel, y en las localidades de Alcorcón y Leganés, la participación ha sido de
entre 500 y 1.500 personas.
En otras ciudades está pasando lo mismo, en Barcelona habían al menos una dozena de plazas tomadas para hacer Asambleas de barrio.
Take the Streets. French protesters urge Paris to ‘wake up’
French protesters urge Paris to ‘wake up’
Sun May 29, 2011 11:10PM
French police forces face protesters during a demonstration in front of the Bastille opera in Paris on May 29, 2011.
French protesters gathered in Paris and rallied against their government, as they modeled Spain’s M-15 movement, with banners calling for Paris to wake up!
About 1,000 protesters gathered on Sunday in Bastille square in Paris according to the French police and demonstrated against the country’s rising unemployment level and corruption, AFP reported.
The demonstration was modeled after the M-15 movement in Spain that has witnessed 2 weeks of violent clashes between security forces and protesters.
The protesters, unfolded giant banners that read; “Real democracy now” and “Paris, wake up”, on the steps of the Opera House in Bastille square.
The Bastille square is known as the place where the French Revolution began.
“There has to be a change in the economic structures to improve the sharing of world resources, because if we continue like this, in unfairness and misery, it could end up badly,” said protester Chantal Piganau.
Security forces monitored the protesters as they called for popular uprising against their government.
Another banner said “The people united will never be defeated.”
Demonstrations are also taking place in other locations in France, such as the southern city of Toulouse and the southwestern city of Bayonne, where people have set up camps and have used other banners saying “We all have reasons to be indignant … join us.”
France has witnessed demonstrations against the government, where many violent clashes between protesters and police forces have occurred, for over a year now.
WINSTANLEY LIVES – SQUATTERS BACK ON ST.GEORGES HILL
St. Georges Hill in Surrey was the site of the Digggers land ocupation – ‘a common treasury for all’ led by Gerard Winstanley. Well now squatters have taken over a house on the posh gated estate that sits on St.Georges Hill with its own golf course and private security. Tops. Whether the squatters know it or not they are following in the tradition and place of Winstanley. DIGGERS ALL – SQUATTERS ALL
‘A private estate that is home to a host of celebrities – including former Chelsea star Claude Makelele and Big Brother contestant Shilpa Shetty – is being taken over by a gang of squatters.
And well-heeled residents of the gated St George’s Hill community in Weybridge, Surrey, are being asked to be ‘vigilant’ following the arrival of their new neighbours.
Six squatters moved into the abandoned £3million, six-bedroom Woodlawn Cottage on the exclusive estate last month, and claim they are not acting illegally.’
