Patrick: Your peoples are picking on me
me: who now?
Patrick: Someone threatened me
Patrick: Feels like someone from Anonymous
me: context?
me: I "retired" from Anonymous a while back
Patrick: Ah
Patrick: Then you probably can't help
me: what are the circumstances?
me: the whole thing is outside anyone's control at this point
Patrick: http://patterico.com/2011/06/24/my-conversation-with-alicia-pain-the-person-who-threatened-me-last-night/
me: the key people formed Lulzsec
me: this doesn't look like it has anything to do with Anonymous
Patrick: Can't talk about everything but it feels like it is
Patrick: Anyway thought you might be able to call off the hounds
Patrick: Guess not
Patrick: You're not still friendly with any of the people to where you could inquire without making it sound like you're doing it on my behalf?
me: unless there's something else I don't see anything that would lead me to believe this involves Anonymous and plenty to think otherwise
Patrick: How so?
me: because Anonymous has never done anything like this
me: the style is that of some random wackjob
Patrick: Maybe
me: and the subject matter would appear to be something involving a particular congressman or something
Patrick: You really haven't followed this at all?
me: no, I don't follow domestic politics anymore
me: I can't stand it
Patrick: Thanks anyway. Later
