In Japan, anonymous cleans the streets
http://www.theverge.com/2012/7/8/314...opjapan-litter
Anonymous is branching out. This rainy morning in Tokyo, 50 or so masked men and women are converging on Miya****a Park, garbage bags in hand, to join Operation Japan’s Anonymous Cleaning Service — picking up litter in one of Tokyo’s busiest districts in equal parts public service, protest, and PR campaign. The event is the Japanese group’s first public demonstration, and it’s using the occasion to speak out against recently-passed revisions to the country's copyright law. The changes criminalize illegal downloading, and would see the country’s ISPs begin monitoring internet traffic for suspicious activity. Today's event follows a series of DDoS attacks last week on the websites of the country’s two major political parties, various government ministries, JASRAC (Japan’s equivalent to ASCAP), and the Japanese supreme court. :up:I can support this Doing good for everyone to get publicity is something I can support. |
