I've got a few questions for you to start out with, more to come.

1. How is it that a given project or campaign gains recognition and commitment among Anonymous while others don't?

2. What is the unifying characteristic of Anonymous, if any?

3. Do you see any entities in history that you would consider to be predecessors to Anonymous?

Thanks for getting in touch. I'm about to step out, but will get back to you at further length either tonight or in the morning; we've got a lot to discuss.

Thanks,

Hi Barrett,

I am the owner of the church0fscientology youtube account which launched project chanology 2 years ago with the Message to Scientology video. I am also, as you can see by the email address, an admin at whyweprotest.net. I handle most of the press for all the projects Anonymous does. I wanted to introduce myself and just make sure we had a line of contact if you ever wanted to ask any questions.

We are very happy with the article you wrote. I spent a lot of time working on press for the titstorm guys over the last few days. Sending out the big press release, answering and interviewing with abc, bbc, and so on. Its been busy. It is nice when someone actually gets Anonymous. So few journalists do.
