Ryne Berthelot Have you tried protesting lately? Maybe not, but we are all familiar with the protestors associated with the Occupy movement. Perhaps best known by their moniker "Anonymous," these protestors have been classified a number of ways ranging from activists to nerds to cyber-terrorists. What is Anonymous? "Anonymous" is a loosely connected group of Internet hackers around the world that originated on the image board www.4chan.org in 2003.

To top off the recent Anonymous news, it looks like members of the hacktivist group have been snared in a trap laid by Interpol.
According to the International Criminal Police Organization, 25 alleged members of Anonymous have been rounded up from Europe and Latin America. In a release from Interpol, the suspects’ ages were found to range from 17 to 40. The release also says that the arrests of the alleged anons took place in the countries of Argentina, Chile, Columbia and Spain by national law enforcement.

We may have learned that free speech is what makes America great, or instinctively resist attempts at silencing our voices. But these are abstract principles, divorced from the real world and our daily lives. Free speech is the foundation of a free society. We believe a healthy society doesn’t allow its artists, musicians and other creators to starve. It’s time we make a stand for a better world - not merely take rearguard actions to preserve a status quo that is _already_ failing us. . * We call on national legislatures to not only reject ACTA efforts to globalize the American intellectual property regime, but to abolish the WIPO. * No more Jammie Thomases.
