The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA), which passed the House of Representatives this week, has drawn a lot of criticism from activist groups such as the Electronic Frontier Foundation for potentially undermining users’ online privacy. In particular, the EFF has said that the bill gives Internet companies the right “to monitor user actions and share data – including potentially sensitive user data – with the government without a warrant” and also “overrides existing privacy law, and grants broad immunities to participating companies.”
Hacker collective Anonymous this week called for a massive online protest against CISPA to occur on April 22nd through an “Internet Blackout Day” by asking “web developers and website owners to go dark” and to also “display a message as to why you are going dark, and encourage others to do the same.” The group’s call for an online blackout day echoes a similar protest that occurred last year against the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in which Reddit and Wikipedia both went dark to protest the bill while Google blacked out its famous Google doodle to symbolize its opposition.
A video of Anonymous’s call for an Internet Blackout Day is posted below.
We are Anonymous. And we have watched since the last Grand Prix F1 race in Manama, Bahrain. Since last year, we have had millions of eyes trained on the continuing oppression of our freedom loving brethren in Bahrain by the self-made “King” in Manama.
Since last year, when Anonymous in solidarity with hundreds of thousands of Bahraini – shut down the Grand Prix F1 race and said “no” to blood racing. One year since Anonymous dumped the personal information including credit card and passport numbers, of all the F1 attendees in Bahrain – and yet Bernnie Eccelstone and the “Royal Family” of Bahrain have learned nothing. So we are coming forward this year to wreck your little party again Mr. Eccelstone. Anonymous will not stand by and allow you a race fueled by the blood of our freedom loving comrades in Bahrain.
Beginning with the opening festivities of your little blood race, you can expect the presence of Anons from all over the globe inside your intertoobz. We will remove you from the world wide web, whether you be Grand Prix or Bahrain government – we shall take it all down. We will expose the personal data of any person who supports this race in any way. You have been warned. Once the festivities for this race begin in Bahrain, all bets are off. We call upon Bernie Eccelstone while there is still time; cancel your blood race now.

Bernie Eccelstone & Bahrain Royal Family, it’s too late to…
Expect US!
Dear citizens of the world, Operation: Awake the Masses has begun. First, let’s make one thing clear. For the ones still not believing our words as being the truth, we are not a conspiracy created in China or Russia, determined to overthrow the United States of America. As far as we can see, almost all of the governments of the world are poisoned by greed and enslaved by the monopoly cartel. We have been created by the very acts of violence, terror, and greed, which has been used by your Government and its shadow masters ruling it, to conquer the entire World.
Anonymous is everyone; everyone can take action in his own way against their own governments if they believe that the people working there, does not serve the citizens’ best interest, but instead they serve the corporate monopoly.
Action must be taken nonetheless.
We are not blind and we see the problems facing Asia and the Middle-East. But first we will concentrate our efforts in the direction of the United States of America. Here is where the most unequal distribution of wealth exists. 400 people now own more wealth than most of its population. To be precise, more than 150 million people. 400 versus 150 million people. This will only stop if we start to awake the people that see life very different than the rest of us. The people we are talking about spend most of their time watching foolish TV shows about celebrities and still believe that their leaders only want the best for them. Also, watching whatever sick programs created for the human mind to be enslaved and redirected from the real problems facing humanity.
We have seen many brothers and sisters showing their interest in wanting to help humanity pass on the right track. Well, now is your chance. Here is what you can do to help to break the chains which have enslaved our planet. Upload on any social network or video-sharing sites like Facebook and Youtube, all the videos that you believe that represents the truth of the danger that threats our very existence. But, rename their title in a way so that people that are still asleep to be interested in. You have to make it look interesting in title, but the content to be straight to the matter. Of course, most of them will ignore the videos, report them, have them deleted, so be careful to use accounts that you can dispose of, so that your own accounts can be safe. This will also trigger a much securer protocol of those social networks and video-sharing sites, but by the time they will implement them, we will have already gained another couple of millions of awakened people on our side.
Just think what chain reaction we could create.
We remind the rest of Anonymous collectives to never underestimate the power of brainwashed people in large numbers. We are still a minority compared to the rest of the Earth population. And the only way we would ever have a chance into saving humanity once and for all from the monopoly banking system is by telling people the truth, even if they don’t want to hear it.
So this is our primary mission from now on.
Replacing their brainwashing weapons with the truth is the most peaceful action we will ever be able to take. And the most important fact is that it can be done by anyone, because anyone can be Anonymous. Let’s remind them that we’re not helpless no matter what threats or acts of violence they take.
We are not here to play foolish games – we are here with a mission. We are not getting paid for it, we are not becoming famous for it. Anonymous is everyone. Remember that. And never forget that we stand for true justice, equality, and liberty.
We are Anonymous
We are everywhere
We are everyone
We will direct humanity into the right path
We will save humanity – because we can
Greedy Banksters and Corporate Cartels
you cannot stop us
You cannot stop the future

As #OpIsrael fades away, the hacktivists who participated in it have found a new target, The United States of America. The hacktivists involved in #OpIsrael have again united this time under the banner #OpUSA and will cause havoc in Americas cyber space.
#OpUSA will be initiated on 7th of May 2013 and will target American websites & servers. The hackers say they are targeting the USA for its war crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The hackers also said the attacks will be done in solidarity with the innocent victims of american drone attacks especially the innocent children.
#OpUSA was officially announced and organized by Mauritania Attacker, the founder of Mauritania Hacker Team and AnonGhost Team and is also the same guy who lauched #OpIsrael. He told illSecure that with #OpUSA more damage will be done than #OpIsrael
Mauritania Attacker also provided illSecure with a list of confirmed hackers he has organized for #OpUSA:

- Other hackers are also allowed to participate.
- The official Twitter for #OpUSA is @OpUSA_2013
These same Hackers took on Israel and won. American cyber space is much bigger than Israel’s and there are much more targets than there was with Israel, so there is no doubt that more damage will be done.
Recently anonymous launched operation fuck L.A.P.D, in which we protested the assassination order sent out against Dorner, and the militarization of the police state. Now we are launching O.p.Bacon. Over the course of this operation we will find and publicize all acts of corruption in law enforcement around the world. Our mission will only end after legislation is changed, and laws become harsher on those police who use their power to help themselves and their friends, rather than society as a whole. Many of you will think that the system is in place, and can not be changed. Many will ask how we can even start to fight against the system. First we must outline the problems we are facing.
Problems in law enforcement are by no means small, they purpose the greatest threat to our free society, as they are the ones who are given the most power. Even when a politician commits a crime it at least has the publicity necessary to see them resign, but because there are so many police officers, and those who would arrest them are their peers to attack them is greater challenge. This is a challenge that anonymous plans to overcome, and will overcome. We will not lose, because our free society depends on it.
Their unions purpose another challenge. Their goal is to make the police feel comfortable, stable, and put more money in there pockets. When the unions do this they simultaneously make it impossible for the officers who commit crimes to even be fired. Our country does not need comfortable police officers, we do need competent, law abiding officers. The unions fight against having quality officers on the force. These unions all work against us the citizens of the united states, and will be our first target for legislative change.
There will be those that challenge us and ask why not go after the organized criminals such as the mafia or various gangs, the reason is organized criminals rely on corrupt people in law enforcement in order to continue committing crimes. They bribe them into submission, and when the corrupt are caught they get a mild slap on the wrist. By eradicating all those who enable criminals said criminals will no longer pose a threat to society. Of course it would be impossible to get everyone, but if the cops feared the law half as much as a normal citizen they would think twice before conducting their evil acts against society.
We plan to effectively end corruption in law enforcement agencies with a simple and legal plan. Phase One will be spreading awareness of O.p.Bacon. Follow us on twitter, facebook, and share our youtube video. As the operation progresses we will show more and more cases of corruption in law enforcement to enrage and enlighten the masses.
Phase two, just like in operation L.A.P.D, we will stage protests against the most horrible of police departments. By doing this we will show that we the people will not stand for our ever changing world losing all the freedoms promised to us in the constitution.
Phase Three, we will be creating online petitions to get specific officers a fair trial to prove their innocence in cases, like in the case of Saylor where an autistic man’s death was deemed to be caused by police brutality yet all three officers responsible, remained on duty without even a suspension to speak of, until pressure was put on them due to large amounts of publicity on social networks. If they are proved guilty they must be imprisoned and not simply resign as we have seen in past cases where officers consistently serve no time in prison.
Phase four, we will be purposing new legislative change to make it that no longer will officers of the law have no accountability for their actions.
For those who live in countries outside the U.S. We at O.p.Bacon stand with you and will fight against corruption worldwide. The problems of corrupt law enforcement is by no means constricted to our borders.
Phase one is now in effect. All who want to see change for the better you have your mission.

We Are Legion,

We Do Not Forget,
Expect Us!
