Hi Barrett.

I just wanted to check in this week and see how your OpCartel efforts were going. (Are you using another name now that Anonymous is out?) I'd really like to learn more about your work with CNN and Der Spiegel. Since we last spoke, I've seen a flurry of reports from people — including Adrian Chen — who allege that the operation is a hoax. I haven't seen much hard evidence either way but would like to learn your response either way.

Happy to chat on the phone or via email. I'm looking to file a follow-up sometime in the early afternoon.

Thanks!
Adam
