Conspiracy Theories! | Hackers attack spy site – New Zealand Herald

Worldwide activist group Anonymous is believed to be behind a hack attack on the Government Communications Security Bureau website on Friday.

On Thursday, Anonymous posted a threatening video on YouTube, claiming that Prime Minister John Key, the Act Party and veteran politician Peter Dunne were to be held responsible for the destruction of internet freedom and basic human rights of New Zealand citizens by passing the GCSB bill, “which allows your government to spy on you”.

It is understood the GCSB website suffered a saturation of external communication requests, to the point where it could not respond to legitimate traffic.

The communications interception agency confirmed the attack slowed its gateway for about 30 minutes.

In the warning video, a man wearing a black hooded outfit and Guy Fawkes mask said: “We, as Anonymous have decided to take action. To the Government of New Zealand, you now have our full attention and we will be watching your every move … this is your final warning.”

A spokesman for GCSB said there could have been some temporary degradation of service.

FBI used Anonymous and Lulzsec Hackers to attack foreign governments - The Hacker News

Sentencing for former LulzSec leader Hector Xavier Monsegur, better known as "Sabu" , has again been delayed. Monsegur pleaded guilty to a dozen criminal counts two years prior and stands to face more a maximum sentence of more than 124 years.


Another Lulzsec Hacker Jeremy Hammond has claimed that the FBI used Sabu to coordinate attacks against foreign governments, by Anonymous hackers and Others.

The delays indicate that the FBI is not extracting information from Monsegur and this could mean that the hacker may be helping FBI with other covert operations as Jeremy Hammond claims.
Jeremy Hammond, released a statement on Thursday accusing the US government of asking Monsegur to encourage fellow hacktivists to infiltrate foreign government entities.

“What many do not know is that Sabu was also used by his handlers to facilitate the hacking of the targets of the government’s choosing including numerous websites belonging to foreign governments”, Hammond said.

“What the United States could not accomplish legally, it used Sabu, and by extension, me and my co-defendants, to accomplish illegally”, Hammond added.

"Why was the US 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?"

Hammond pleaded guilty in May to hacking private intelligence firm Stratfor to expose millions of revelatory emails. The Illinois native faces up to 10 years in prison when he is sentenced, scheduled for 15th November.

"Dismantled" Anonymous and the Million Mask March - CNN iReport



Last month, Austin P. Berglas, Assistant Special Agent in Charge with the FBI in New York told the Huffington Post that the FBI has effectively dismantled the hacktivist collective Anonymous saying “they’re still yacking on twitter and posting things,” implying that, at least for the time being, the group was in disarray. So it may come as a shock to find out that at the time of this statement Anonymous was in the midst of planning their largest operation to date, and they’re doing so publically.

On November 5th Anonymous members are planning on marching in the capitals of over twenty nations simultaneously. The events are primarily being organized through Facebook and not on some obscure IRC channel, making it difficult to believe that the FBI was unaware of such a substantial change in strategy. In the past, Anonymous has largely confined itself to cyberspace. They’re known for stealing the personal information of Federal employees and releasing the details to the public, defacing government websites, or simply blocking access to them. In the days after the declaration of victory by the FBI, Anonymous released a “document dump” reported to be personal information of Federal Reserve employees. Now Anonymous appears ready to take the battle out of cyberspace and on to the streets of capitals around the world. Washington, London, Paris, Perth, Sofia, Hong Kong, Ottawa, Dublin, as well as many other cities all have active pages dedicated to preparation for the November 5th event.

Contrary to many operations in the past, some participants are not even attempting to conceal their identities. John Fairhurst is the organizer of the Washington, DC march and is certainly not trying to remain hidden. Fairhurst is quick to point out that that he isn’t a leader within Anonymous, stating that the organization doesn’t have leaders. One member, who chose to remain anonymous, summarized the leaderless organization as “a street with all of the members lined up on each side of the street. Somebody gets an idea, and that becomes a car in our little story. As the idea car drives down the road, the people that agree with it hop in and ride that idea to its destination. This car just happens to be driving to Washington.” Fairhurst stressed that the event will be “peaceful and nonviolent," while adding that “the Million Mask March is not only a protest showing our strength in numbers, it is as well the issuance of a warning to the powers that be.” He also went on to say that the event will be kid friendly and that no drugs or alcohol will be permitted.

Michael Pendleton is not planning on taking a figurative car to Washington. Pendleton is leaving August 28th from Tallahassee on foot. His plan is to walk the 850 miles to Washington spreading awareness of the march along the way. Commenting on why he was engaging in the March, he said “hopefully we wake some people up and don't get arrested. I dang sure am not walking 850 miles to be arrested.” Pendleton, a devout Christian, says he “will stand with everyone and anyone to say we have the right to think, feel, and be different.”

The major shift in strategy and tactics being employed by Anonymous is seen by some within the group as the natural progression of a strengthening movement. “When we didn’t have a lot of support, we had to stay in the shadows on the web. Now, people all over the world are waking up to the message, so we can go to the nation’s capital and not be worried about the FBI beating us up or throwing us in jail for no reason other than being Anonymous.” said a man that claimed his name was Guy Fawkes. Guy Fawkes is a British historical figure who serves as a mascot to the Anonymous movement. The iconic Anonymous mask is actually a Guy Fawkes mask. The messages of Anonymous are many but revolve mainly around civil and human rights.

The DC page for “The Million Mask March” has 8,668 people that have confirmed they will be attending with another 89,000 or so invited at the time of writing. Los Angeles, New York, Denver, Atlanta, Austin, Hartford, Tucson, Cincinnati, and St. Louis are some of the other American cities where Anonymous plans to march that day.

Hackers threaten to reveal secrets of New Zealand MPs behind snooping bill — RT News



The Anonymous hacker group has threatened to post New Zealand MPs’ secrets online after the country’s parliament passed an NSA-style spying bill. It follows a hack by the group against the NZ government that took out the Kiwi secret services’ website.

In an interview over an encrypted link with New Zealand newspaper the Herald, the hacktivist group said they would target the politicians responsible for a so-called snooping bill. The group said they were giving the MPs a chance to prove to the NZ public that they had nothing to hide.

"Releasing such personal information sends a message that they're not very hard to find, they aren't the only ones who can gather intelligence,” a representative of Anonymous said.

The hacktivist organization knocked out the Government Communications Security Bureau’s (GCSB) website on Friday in a denial-of-service attack. In the interview with the Herald, the group said the cyber-attack was merely a distraction that masked another hack to obtain secret data.

Anonymous is opposing an amendment that was passed by the New Zealand parliament on August 21. The legislation would grant the GCSB – New Zealand’s equivalent of the NSA – new powers to support the country’s police, Defense Force and Security Intelligence Service.

Opponents of the controversial bill have criticized the legislation as ambiguous, and say it could open the door to NSA-style surveillance. Anonymous has characterized the bill as “an unadulterated violation of human rights, constitutionally illegal, and an invasion of the people's privacy.”

They have also criticized NZ Prime Minister John Key, who championed the bill, for failing to stand up to the US.
The GCSB confirmed the hack attack Friday, but rejected the claims that classified data had been taken.

The debate over the GCSB’s new powers triggered a number of mass protests, with three quarters of New Zealanders “concerned” by the amendment, according to a survey by Fairfax Media-Ipsos.

However, Key has rejected criticism of the bill as fueled by “misinformation” and “conspiracy” fears stirred up by the country’s opposition. He has trenchantly defended the bill as necessary to protect the country’s cyber-security in the face of various threats.

"There will be times where a serious cyber-intrusion is detected against a New Zealander and the GCSB will then need to look at content – that's why the law allows that. But that should be the end point, not the starting point," Key said.

One of the most vocal members of the NZ opposition, Kim Dotcom, founder of MegaUploads, said the so-called threats were “imaginary” and a justification for “a radical termination of our basic rights.”

Last January New Zealand police stormed Dotcom’s mansion in Auckland, seizing digital material and other assets. A judge later ruled that the raid was illegal. Since then Dotcom has accused the New Zealand government of collaborating with the US secret services.

Why CyberGuerrilla Anonnexus is needed
Can you rely on a corporate provider for confidentiality of your sensitive communications? Not only do they typically scan and record the content of your messages for a wide variety of purposes, they also concede to the demands of governments that restrict digital freedom and fail to have strict policies regarding their user’s privacy. Not to mention their obviously commercial interests put commercial providers at odds with what we are doing. Government’s practices “full pipe monitoring” and association mapping, which gives them the ability to build a detailed map of how our social movements are organized, worse this gives them precise information about what linkages should be disrupted in order to disrupt large social movements

We believe it is vital that essential communication infrastructure be controlled by movement organizations and not corporations or the government.

We strive to keep our communications as secure and private as we can. We do not log your IP address. (Most services keep detailed records of every machine which connects to the servers.

Publeaks

Persbericht 9 september
Vandaag lanceert Stichting Publeaks samen met een groot aantal Nederlandse mediaorganisaties Publeaks (https://www.publeaks.nl), een website waarop iedereen veilig en anoniem documenten kan lekken naar de media. Het initiatief is bedoeld om klokkenluiders te beschermen, misstanden aan de kaak te stellen en onderzoeksjournalistiek te stimuleren en ondersteunen.

Publeaks is een doorgeefluik. Het faciliteert veilig lekken naar de pers: de afzender blijft volledig anoniem en kan zelf kiezen naar welke van de aangesloten media hij of zij documenten, geluid- en beeldfragmenten wil sturen. Ontvangende mediaorganisaties kunnen in een beveiligde omgeving de bestanden inzien en bewerken.

Publeaks maakt gebruik van de software GlobaLeaks die ontwikkeld is door het Hermes Center for Transparency and Digital Human Rights (http://logioshermes.org). Publeaks heeft zelf geen toegang de gelekte bestanden, kan onmogelijk achterhalen wie de afzender is en publiceert niets. Deelnemende media hebben beloofd dat zij het materiaal voor publicatie checken op waarheidsgehalte, ondersteunende bronnen zoeken en hoor en wederhoor toepassen. Op een afgesloten deel van de website kunnen journalisten vragen achterlaten voor de anonieme tipgever. Het is aan de tipgever om te beslissen of hij of zij hierop in gaat. Journalisten die iets via Publeaks ontvangen zijn op de hoogte welke andere media de documenten eveneens hebben gekregen en kunnen besluiten tot een gezamenlijk onderzoek.

Publeaks is een initiatief van de Stichting Publeaks, een stichting die zich inzet om het controlerend vermogen van de pers te stimuleren, en wordt gefinancierd door deelnemende persorganisaties. Dit zijn: AD, ANP, De Correspondent, De Groene Amsterdammer, de Volkskrant, Het Financieele Dagblad, het Parool, NOS Nieuws, NRC Handelsblad, Nieuwsuur, Nu.nl, Pownews, RTL-Nieuws, Trouw en Vrij Nederland.

De samenwerking tussen vrijwel alle toonaangevende Nederlandse mediaorganisaties maakt dit initiatief uniek in de wereld, op een moment dat veiligheid, privacy en bescherming van klokkenluiders actueler is dan ooit.

'Topiary' tells all: Prison, activism, and LulzSec's beginnings

The young hacker, who's real name is Jake Davis, opens up about his time in the cyberattack collective.

quote:

We invented LulzSec during a very bored conversation on some abandoned IRC server. It was "Lulz Leaks" but then I forgot all of the passwords and we had to change the name. The top hat and monocle image was chosen at random from one of my Reaction Face folders with several thousand other, unrelated pictures. From there it was a case of making it up as we went along. I wouldn't even call it a conspiracy because that implies some level of organization. It's fantastic that companies are securing themselves and that we're taking Internet privacy seriously at a mainstream level now, even though LulzSec was fundamentally a waste of time.

quote:

You've said Parmy Olson's book "is factually misleading, dishonestly quoted and does not reflect the true lives of its characters." Any specific examples? I enjoyed the book as a casual Anon follower but didn't know what to believe or not believe, lacking first-hand insight.

The psychoanalysis attempts in the book are really quite insulting to be honest. She constantly tried to guess what people were thinking "behind their screens" by reading simple text chatlogs, such as once directly stating that I tensed in fear when someone in an IRC room mentioned the word "Scotland", which was entirely made up from her end after she read some leaked material from the Guardian. There's so many of these "he said this on the Internet and therefore he was thinking this", "he could think this because X or Y" and other assumptions that she either doesn't realize are incredibly patronising/ignorant or she's doing it on purpose to engage the audience with her "characters". My whole relationship with this book was essentially taking the drafts she'd written and telling her to remove the copious amounts of speculative, frankly damaging nonsense she'd blatantly fabricated because she knows that if she bullshits 100 times I might spot 95 of them and she's left with a nice 5 bullshits. It went on and on until eventually she even managed to sneak a few more bullshits into the final work without me seeing, then kept saying "it's out of my hands" after I asked for more and more fixes.
Maybe what spawned a seed of wanting to speak out was when she wrote a draft of the book that didn't in any way make Sabu out to be suspicious, then when she learned that he was an FBI informant went back and rewrote how the "characters" were "feeling" to make it seem like they all trusted Sabu a lot more than the previous draft, taking the exact same quotes and spinning them in different ways to suit her new "plot twist" that got some kids named on an indictment that begins "The United States of America VS.", which seemed to completely go over Parmy's head in order to satisfy her frankly clueless publishers/editor. It's as if they all thought it was a fiction full of fun and games.
It's surely informative and enjoyable for everyone else, and the only reason she started attempting to psychoanalyse my every move was because literally nobody else was bothering with her at that stage, hence the entire book turning into a Topiary shitstorm towards the end, which is not what I had in mind at all. I say this now because, on reflection, I was a very, very stupid and gullible child a few years ago (as you can imagine) and she took full advantage of that like only the most cynical kind of journalist would. The short version is I gave her a lot of information, a bulk pile of it, and she sculpted it into a very messy ice statue of a horse falling into a pool of custard and horribly drowning, again and again, until all you're left with is horsey custard steak.
The even shorter version is that she has no idea what she's talking about, lucked out and capitalized, which is a very smart move so good for her.

Anonymous to Protest Against Monsanto with DDOS Attacks and Defacements

quote:

Hackers of Anonymous Americalatina plan on launching a protest campaign on October 12, 2013 against Monsanto. The operation against the controversial seed giant, OpMonsanto, will allegedly include distributed denial-of-service (DDOS) attacks and website defacements.

“We applaud the bravery of the organizations and citizens who are standing up to Monsanto, and we are united with you against this oppressive corporate abuse. Monsanto is contaminating the world with chemicals and genetically modified food crops for profit while claiming to feed the hungry and protect the environment,” the hackers said in a video statement released in September.

Anonymous hackers demand that Monsanto stop contaminating the global food chain, intimidating small farmers, using destructive herbicides and pesticides, and bribing officials.

“Anonymous urges all concerned citizens to stand up for these farmers, fight for the future of your own food. Protest, organize, spread info to your friends! Say no to toxic chemicals in your food! Say no to GMO! Say no to Monsanto!” the hackers concluded their statement.

I’ll be monitoring the operation and provide updates if the hacktivists’ threats materialize.

13 alleged Anonymous members indicted for DDoS attacks on Hollywood

quote:

On October 3, a federal grand jury indicted 13 alleged members of the hacker collective Anonymous for conspiring to intentionally cause damage to protected computers. Each of them is charged with committing cybercrimes while taking part in Anonymous’ Operation Payback.

Operation Payback originated on 4chan, and involved Anonymous targeting organizations that had lobbied for stricter enforcement of copyright laws online, such as the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). Some of these same institutions, most of which represent America’s entertainment industry, have previously hired the Indian firm Aiplex Software to privately enforce these laws. This includes forcibly shutting down websites that won’t comply by using a denial of service attack. In 2010, the Managing Director of Aiplex confirmed that Hollywood studios, including 20th Century Fox, had hired the company.

After popular file sharing site The Pirate Bay was attacked, Anonymous retaliated by taking down various entertainment industry websites, including that of the MPAA. In order to accomplish the takedown, Anonymous also used a distributed denial of service attack, which is the cause of the recent criminal indictment.

At least one of the defendants, Dennis Collins, is also a member of the PayPal 14, a separate Anonymous group that was previously charged with similar crimes. The 14 allegedly carried out DDoS attacks against eBay-owned online payments site PayPal in 2010, after PayPal blocked donations to whistleblower site WikiLeaks.

The PayPal 14 case remains in limbo. The defendants reportedly tried to negotiate a settlement earlier this year, but no resolution has been reached and no trial date set.

Both the PayPal 14 and the Operation Payback defendants were charged under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, called “the worst law in technology” by some activists. It was famously used against Aaron Swartz, a young Internet activist who committed suicide in January 2013 while facing 35 years in prison for downloading academic journals without permission.

DDoS attacks, charged as hacking under the CFAA, are often used as a form of political protest. Earlier this year, Anonymous unsuccessfully petitioned the White House to consider them protected speech acts under the First Amendment. They argue that the law should make a distinction between "hacking" and simple push-button DDoS attacks like the ones in the PayPal and Operation Payback cases, which don't involve unauthorized access to any data.

In June, two U.S. Senators introduced a bill called “Aaron’s Law” in honor of Swartz, with the intention of reforming the CFAA.

The last place you expected Anonymous: The ballet

quote:

On Nov.15, the Boston-based Juventas New Music Ensemble, a group focused on performing the work of emerging composers under 35 years old, is debuting a ballet called HackPolitik. Among other things, the performance seeks to make artistic sense of not just the collective called Anonymous but what they represent in terms of how we communicate. It was the idea of young American composer Peter Van Zandt Lane, who proposed it to the ensemble’s artistic director, Lidiya Yankovskaya, in May 2012.

Van Zandt Lane, choreographer Kate Ladenheim of New York dance group the People Movers, and Yankovskaya, who is conducting, collaborated on a piece built around Parmy Olson’s We Are Anonymous.

HackPolitik meshes Van Zandt Lanes new musical composition, itself a union of traditional instrumentation and electronics, with Ladenheims choreography in a stage environment that utilizes digital design, all under Yankovskaya conducting. The piece explores how the manufacture of identity has changed in a world where the speed of information has become a variable.

We talked to Lane, Yankovskaya, and Ladenheim about the production.

#Justice4Daisy: Anonymous threatens to go after alleged rapists

quote:

Anger is mounting after the cover-up by local officials of an alleged rape of two teenage girls in Missouri has been exposed. Meanwhile, internet vigilantes aligned with Anonymous are readying to work the case themselves.

A story published in the Kansas City Star over the weekend by reporter Dugan Arnett is grabbing widespread attention as readers continue to circulate the 4,000-word article about an incident that began with the alleged sexual assault of two teen girls in early 2012.

The Star has been working closely with the case for the last seven months, Arnett said, and that research culminated in the recent expose titled “Nightmare in Maryville: Teens’ sexual encounter ignites a firestorm against family.”

It’d be a feat unto itself to reiterate Arnett’s words while still doing his original story justice, but the gist of the Star report is that felony charges against a 17-year-old popular senior football player from Maryville, Missouri were dropped even after the star athlete himself admitted to having sex with a highly-intoxicated girl three years his junior. A 13-year-old girl was also allegedly raped during the encounter by someone, and another 17-year-old boy recorded the incident on his iPhone and was eventually hit with a felony charge himself over allegedly sexual exploiting a minor. Even with hard evidence and immaculate testimony, however, the case fell apart, no one was convicted and the family of one of the alleged victims was essentially driven out of town.

Parents of the 14-year-old girl, Daisy Coleman, are OK with having their daughter’s identity out in the open. And as her story is being shared all over the Web, the internet’s own army of computer-chair investigators is pursuing a probe of their own.
