(Before It's News)

 

-from Lulzsec page-
“I write this in advance of the sentence of Hector Monsegur, aka “Sabu” – a former Anonymous comrade turned FBI informant – scheduled to take place on August 23, 2013. It is widely known that Sabu was used to build cases against a number of hackers, including myself. What many do not know is that Sabu was also used by his handlers to facilitate the hacking of targets of the government’s choosing – including numerous websites belonging to foreign governments. What the United States could not accomplish legally, it used Sabu, and by extension, me and my co-defendants, to accomplish illegally. The questions that should be asked today go way beyond what an appropriate sentence for Sabu might be: Why was the United States using us to infiltrate the private networks of foreign governments? What are they doing with the information we stole? And will anyone in our government ever be held accountable for these crimes?”

Government never ceases to amaze me the things they pull.  Hacktivists catch alot of flack and maybe some of the people arent of the highest charchter or most well spoken but what they do keeps a glimmer of hope alive for the internet and people everywhere. They keep the big wigs in check they expose things the TPTB dont want exposed, it really isbeneficial to all.  -Mort
