Everything should be okay for now, I think. The warrants were served in pursuit of an investigation into Operation Payback, with which I had no involvement, and extrapolating from that lag, it should be weeks before anyone starts looking into me. Sample warrant: http://i.imgur.com/4o8IC.jpg

It most likely won't; my status is hard to determine. But I need to make sure that this book gets out no matter what happens, and the 40 search warrants served today involved a lot of people I know and with whom I worked. My lawyer, Mirna Hariz, will prepare a more airtight contract soon enough. Her e-mail is mirnahariz@gmail.com, and she'll e-mail you later.

Barrett, I'm honored and will faithfully discharge this responsibility if it comes to that.  But hopefully things won't get that dire.

There have been additional raids involving many of our channel ops at anonops.ru. Several held for questioning, others merely questioned. Still getting info in.

No idea.  I'm monumentally untechnical, but is he sure he knows the origin?  If someone were using Tor, wouldn't that obscure it?  For my fiction, would actually love to know more about how you can tell where searches on you are coming from...

> Gregg Housh just let me know that someone was searching his full name as well as his girlfriend's - which is not even listed on the Scientology court documents, fake names always provided - from Dakar, Senegal. Is there anything/anyone in Dakar that we should be keeping tabs on? Her name has never been released before.
