Re: rabbit/no search warrant

Basically, we got hbgary's e-mails along with hbgary federal's. Prez, penny, called me to make the distinction. I told her to come into irc to talk. She and greg whatshisname, who is a douche, were in for a couple hours. I don't think a consensus has been reached on our end as regards what to do, but anyway I don't think the e-mails have yet been downloaded by anyone because file isn't being sufficiently seeded via torrent, so there may still be time to come to a decision. I like penny but some others don't trust her on this matter when she claims to be angry with aaron, etc. Meanwhile greg has made some threatening statements to the press so, yeah, that wasn't particularly brilliant of him.

Hey Barrett. Do you have a scanned copy of the search warrant the feds gave rabbit/no during the search?

Barr is currently in irc.anonops.ru pleading with us.

Michael-

You may have seen yesterday's Financial Times piece which claimed that
the operational heads of Anonymous had been identified by a certain Aaron
Barr of the internet secuity firm HBGary Federal. Barr claimed that Q is
co-founder of Anonymous, which is demonstrably false (Q set up the
#anonymous channel at anonops.ru, which is simply an IRC channel) and
that he is seeking replacements for OWen. OWen merely runs and owns that
particular server, which as I told you is one of several de facto
operational centers. Everyone involved laughed their assess off yesterday
and several of us wrote a silly press release which was thereafter posted at
Daily Kos and AnonNews. Barr, for his part, is reportedly set to meet with
the FBI tomorrow in order to provide them with info gleaned from our
entirely non-secret IRC channels, and meanwhile his allegedly successful
intel operation will no doubt help his firm acquire further business.

The only problem is that Anonymous has just taken over the website of
HBGary Federal founder Greg Hoglund and deleted all bakcups. Suffice to say
that HBGary has attempted to interfere with a movement that has made
substantial contributions to the liberty and well-being of North Africans
and others and will be further dealt with over the coming hours. Please see:
http://rootkit.com/. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Yeah, will do. Also, off the record, although Anonymous as a movement
will
no doubt continue to some small extent with Yemen, the 11th is the
anniversary of Iran's revolution and I'm in discussions with both
Iranian
exiles and some of the more competent Anons about supplying certain
tools to
Green folks ahead of that, and perhaps getting involved further. Our
concern
is that Anonymous is not yet equipped to handle such a situation as
Iran,
which obviously involves a lot of nuance and interference from all the
great
powers and then some. Eritrea, meanwhile, is a police state with a large
expat presence in the city in which I'm currently living and I've
managed to
get in touch with the exile opposition, which is enthusiastic about any
attempt. That, too, would be a secret op run out of Project PM until
such
time as our cover is blown, at which point Anonymous will be thrown at
them.
I expect those operations to begin in two weeks.

Michael-

Good to meet you. Here's the info I have. Let me know if I

forgot

anything.


"Heidi Boghosian" <director@nlg.org>, (NAtional Lawyers

Guild

director

with
whom I'm working to choose lawyers)

Stanley Cohen stanleycohen@earthlink.net - guy who guys on

Fox

and

defends

Hamas, lol

http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2011/jan/27/anonymous-internet

-
my op-ed from other day, with links to info on OpTunisia,

etc.


As I mentioned, there are three people I'm assisting in

this.


"Trivette" is a channel operator of anonops.ru, where a

large

faction

of

the
Anonymous movement does its work. He's a California male

whose

documents

you
have (partially, it seems). Here is the entirety of what I

have;

if

other

info is needed from him, let me know and I'll get it ASAP.

The

relevant

grand jury starts on Feb 10.

Subpoena http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/4348/sub2sw.jpg

Attachment to federal grand jury subpoena:
http://img806.imageshack.us/img806/1708/subz.jpg

"Owen" controls the anonops.ru server. He was raided by the

FBI

but

has

not
received any subpoena. He doesn't seem interested in any

legal

advice

until

such point as he is required to get off his ass by the Feds.

"Rabbit"/"No" is a 19-year-old Nevada female. Her family

home was

raided

and
she was questioned at that point. She actually called right

after

got

off

with you and told me the following:

Equipment seized:

two broken laptops
two jump drives
father's laptop
mac book
samsung phone
iphone
router

The search warrant was shown to her only after she had

requested

to

see

it

several times and was questioned about MasterCard etc (it's

looking

like

the
MIAA thing may just be peripheral or even unrelated, as I'm

just

now

able

to
determine). It's headlined United States District Court of

Nevada.

According
to one section, it was supposed to be carried out by Feb 9 -

one

day

before

the California grand jury goes down. She'll be able to scan

it

and

get

it

to
you or whoever ends up assisting by Thursday but it's in

reference

to

her

having allegedly accessed a secure computer to obtain

information,

U.S.

c
1030a2c.

Hey, Barrett.

I'm working on a story about the DoJ's efforts to

The NYT mentioned that you're helping to organize legal

assistance

for

some of those arrested and released recently. Do you have

couple

of

minutes to talk. I'm interested in your sense of what

DoJ's

strategy

is

here. Is this about making some examples from a few

people

associated

with

Anonymous. Are they trying to go after leaders in the

hopes of

beheading

the

group (which seems unlikely, give the nature).

And I'm also just interested in what exactly people are

being

charged

with. From a legal perspective, this is a tricky move on

their

part.
