Also, Philipp, on the thread about the scientology, i posted a couple updates on the Google bomb. At some point "brainwashing cult" worked for it, and then "dangerous cult" stopped working. So now "brainwashing cult" is the only one still working.

[put at-character here]Dpic : I know that there is post there..and if you looked carefully I was the first one to comment on it – "Be very wary of the 10th of February and project chanology!! " :)-

in short what I am trying to do is keep track on the fly..with a little help from others – a collective stream /crowd sourcing of information on the happenings

I've gotten word that 300,000 Anons are expected worldwide. This is exciting. Finally people are rising up in numbers that the church can no longer handle. They can't keep the truth from us any longer. Knowledge will set us free :)

Actually yesterday was kinda crazy in terms of tracking events as it unfolds.

A couple of moons ago I was clued onto

a) An "Anon Group" and "4chan" for possible net threat incidents.
b) Soon Project Chanlogy is spawned and gets attention
c) Over 150 groups are created in a relative short time on FaceBook/ Myspace and other social sites- more then 300,000 members (& growing!!)
d) World Wide planning effects takes place for feb 10th
e) Feb 10th – the protest begins in Sydney and Japan and continues ..
d) Dynamic content is crated by Anon users by way of common cell phones and quick grass root level reporting.

IRC/ SMS / Chat lines /Pones , Video/ Blogs are the tools that were used for this grass root level initiative. Information come in from 14 countries and about 47 cities, with the head count of approx 10-12K protesters.

Aside from having a successful campaign – one the the key points is that this moved from an internet protest into a real world protest. IMHO, this is the first time that a grass root level orchestrated program has been coordinated world wide. Remember Anon members of a a particular city hardly know each other , let alone knowing those from other cities./rest of world. The tools that were used were the social platforms that currently exist. Wiki's, YouTube, Flicker , Blogs. Twitter etc the main tools for information sharing, aggregation and dissemination.

Like it or not , people power is really returning too the people.. . .. we are watching but we are not waiting....Governments, Corporate and Religious Orgs, should be very wary of what could people can do for themselves and the world at large.. Feb 10th is just the start ...!!

"I would like Anon to attack an issue next time. How about death penalty as still used by many countries?"

This will happen, if the death penalty is "inhumane" in nature. I for one, uphold ideologies of 'an eye for an eye' .. Death penalties for certain crimes are justified. just getting a sentence of life imprisonment does not justice.

At a therortical level, there is much that can be debated on the "Death penalty" – it depends on the context of the culture..deep in the jungles of amazon , the native people banish the guilty party from the community and into the forests-- to them this means death.. but to western mindset s/he was let free...!!

> 'an eye for an eye'

You mean the punishment from the legal system towards the offender should consist of what the offender did to the victim? Do you know what this would result in when applied to sadists, molesters, etc. ...? But I suppose that discussion would extend the scope of this thread...

> it depends on the context of the culture

I agree people debate this, but people also debate the merits and dangers of Scientology. But you might very well be right in this – Anon can perhaps only attack positions hold by minorities, by the nature of the group ... as it's so losely organized it must work on very strong majority consent to form.

/pd [PersonRank 10]

I agree...

"it's so losely organized it must work on very strong majority consent to form."

is this a new soical phenonomen ?? losely formed and losely organized , but using the net as the mean to further an agenda ?

But can it work on anything except the kind of "enemy" which is already weak, as they are already attacked by mainstream?
Not sure about the US but mainstream media in e.g. Germany already concludes Scientology is a bad organization.

Perhaps if the death penalty argument is still too controversial, Anon can tackle global warming and e.g. greatly reduce driving cars, or give up on cars for those contexts where public transport exists?

No, because Anonymous isn't an activist organization. It doesn't operate with an agenda. They are only moved to action when the entire group happens to agree on one issue.

> Perhaps if the death penalty argument is still too controversial, Anon can tackle global warming and e.g. greatly reduce driving cars, or give up on cars for those contexts where public transport exists?

Yeas, death penalty is too controversial. I disagree with it completely, but that's not really related. Anonymous can't act if it is at all divided. Anonymous can fight injustice when there's not much of a debate. Global warming, i don't think so because there is *some* debate on this only because of the ***corporate***money that has been dumped into creating an opposing argument. Also, anonymous acts on a whim-- they "do it for the lulz" It's all pretty interesting. I don't fully understand all of anonymous, but you really have to get into the mindset of an anon by lurking
