Anonymous continues in its crusade to protest the closure of the Megaupload service, as well as the rest of its video services, as well as the arrest of its founder and its management leadership.
The group of hackers already showed their rejection last Friday by attacking for being there to share files. However, now Anonymous has gone a step further and has published the music catalog of the Sony record company for the last ten years.
In addition to these ten years of music, the group of hackers has also published some of the films produced by the multinational since the year 2000.
All the links on the web are redirected to sites that share Torrent files, thus sending the group a clear message that despite the fall in this type of service, there is still an alternative to downloading content directly.
not the only attack
However, this action against Sony has not been the only one that the group has carried out in the last few hours, since it has also attacked the Vivendi page, belonging to EMI and considered one of the largest European entertainment holdings. Its presence goes beyond the audiovisual industry and also participates in the world of music and videogames, through Universal and Blizzard. The reason for his attack comes from his involvement in promoting Internet regulatory legislation at a global level.
In addition, this weekend the group has attacked sites related to the entertainment business, Disney Latino, Warner Bros and the Argentine Society of Authors and Composers, the latter especially active in recent months, proposing actions against services such as Taringa or Cuevana .
boycott call
Likewise, another of the campaigns launched under the umbrella of Anonymous is the Black March, or Black March, in which it encourages Internet users to “hit the profit margins” of the cultural industry by boycotting the consumption of this type of content throughout the month. contents.
They ask not to download songs, not go to the movies, not buy video games or not buy magazines and books are some of the proposals on the page, which also includes a graph on how the support of members of the US Congress for SOPA anti-piracy laws has decreased and PIPA after the protests that the internet registered on the 18th.
A more “democratic” appearance is the one that surrounds the proposal of the Twitter account @YourAnonNews in which its managers have asked the more than 371,000 followers of their profile to comment on which is the next page that they would like Anonymous to hack.
With so many initiatives and means to disseminate them, Internet users themselves mistrust the “legitimacy” of these campaigns and whether they really belong to the authentic Anonymous movement.
However, the Twitter account @Anon_Central has clarified that the movement “is decentralized, which means we have no leaders: you are your own leader.”
