The recent month have been interesting, watching hacker groups infiltrate many big Swedish webportals. The year of the hackers, perhaps?
Just read this news, that a group of anonyms hacker have published a video on YouTube, declaring that they have a goal and agenda… to take down Scientology! The revolution comes from down-under. I think its good at the same time its scary. In this particular case I think its great, but what if it were the other way around? Religion or terrorists trying to take down their enemies through the web.
But what I like about it is the possibilities for the little people to fight a higher power with new weapons. And that states, corporations, cults and religions can’t just do what they want today just cause they have money or power. That they should fear us, the grunt folks. And that we will respond and not just take the shit!
Another great example of is the failure of Fox News “debate” about the nudity in Mass Effect, which have angered the gaming community. Even anti-gaming profile Jack Thompson think this debate is ridiculous. The “expert” psychologist who was invited to comment on the game (which she hadn’t even played), where on the show mostly to promote her book. And the whole news was obviously written to black paint (Swedish expression direct translated 
) videogames, again! The response have be many, EA publisher of the game have complained to Fox for the poorly and pathetic story. The author/psychologists book have been receiving wretched review on her book on Amazon, mostly from gamers, and have now gone out and withdraw her statement. I even think this have had a huge impact on Fox News credibility, if it ever had any before that is!
