 Carbon Markets Are NOT Cooling the Planet
Stephen Leahy via pip, Thursday, Jun 23 2011, 11:16am
Carbon markets have been widely promoted as the only way to generate enough money to enable industries and countries to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions, which are largely responsible for global warming. The only problem is that nearly 20 years after their conception, they have failed to work, and have also been subject to fraud and other financial crimes. (story and 1 image)

 Mainstream media struggles to understand the Digital Underground
Kismo, Wednesday, Jun 22 2011, 11:05pm
Today mainstream media from the Wall Street Journal to leading national newspapers is overflowing with ‘news’ of hacking exploits -- most of it distorted and/or inaccurate – and the existence of a curious underground ‘political animal’ known as the “hacktivist.” A shadowy predator that is able to instill fear into the hearts of Corporate Systems Administrators and IT ‘Security’ Companies.

USA NOT China is the major threat to resource rich nations
freddy, Wednesday, Jun 22 2011, 10:16am
Whether the linked news report is a feeble attempt to sell Gillard's "enthusiastic" subservience to America to the Oz public -- she signed off on FIVE (5) full scale US military bases of OCCUPATION while in Washington -- or whether clearly CRAFTED news reports are designed to take pressure off the most unpopular PM in Oz history is unknown at this stage, but attempting to portray China as an aggressor salivating over our resource rich North, which they would have to mine after invading and conquering the nation, is so absurd and preposterous that it could pass for American mainstream 'news!'

The 'Man' Launches Psywar against Hacktivists
casey, Wednesday, Jun 22 2011, 1:01am
Take the following linked reports with a grain of salt. It seems the 'man' is launching a psychological offensive against cyber warriors -- we all know 'he' is witless in cyberspace; however, he hopes his transparent psychological tactic of 'divide and conquer' would force hackers to fight amongst themselves, thereby neutralising a MAJOR threat against Corporatists and Banks -- THE REAL AND CONSTANT ENEMY! I would clarify the situation immediately, all genuine underground hacker groups and Uber hackers BY NATURE oppose the 'man' -- u got that, imbos?

Iceland Declares Independence from International Banks
Bill Wilson via reed, Wednesday, Jun 22 2011, 12:02am
ICELAND IS FREE! And it will remain so, so long as her people wish to remain autonomous of the foreign domination of her would-be masters — in this case, international bankers.

US/NATO Openly Commit War Crimes with Impunity
justin, Tuesday, Jun 21 2011, 11:43pm
The incompetence would be laughable except for the murderous tragic consequences and loss of INNOCENT human life. The US/NATO's 'humanitarian liberation' of Libya -- otherwise known as an illegal intervention designed to remove a national leader from power and appropriate the natural resource wealth from the people -- has quite openly become a criminal war waged by vandals and murderers "bombing everything" and indiscriminately killing INNOCENT civilians while they DESPERATELY seek to ILLEGALLY assassinate the nation's leader, Col. Gaddafi.

The Digital Front Against Ruling Criminal Cabals
fagan, Tuesday, Jun 21 2011, 9:14am
In characteristic fashion, hacker groups are joining forces to 'serve it up' to criminal Banksters and polluting, murdering Corporatists. Anonymous and Lulzsec announced they have joined forces in order to increase their impact and ability to intervene into 'secure' Corporate and Bank systems. The aim of the alliance is to obtain sensitive data that conclusively reveals the criminality of mega Corps and Banks -- the two largest corrupting influences in the World today.

Bitcoin Explained
Andy Greenberg via bill, Monday, Jun 20 2011, 10:18am
Bitcoin is a grassroots nonprofit project that seeks to fashion a new currency out of little more than cryptography, networking and open-source software, and Gavin Andresen is the closest thing the project has to a director. Bitcoin is not, he explains, just a new way to digitally spend dollars, pounds or yen. That's been tried before. (story and 1 image)

9/11 and the Ministry of Truth
Paul Craig Roberts via stan, Monday, Jun 20 2011, 7:37am
The purest example of how Americans are shielded from truth is the media’s (including many Internet sites) response to the large number of professionals who find the official explanation of September 11, 2001, inconsistent with everything they, as experts, know about physics, chemistry, structural engineering, architecture, fires, structural damage, the piloting of airplanes, the security procedures of the United States, NORAD’s capabilities, air traffic control, airport security, and other matters. These experts, numbering in the thousands, have been shouted down by know-nothings in the media who brand the experts as “conspiracy theorists.” This despite the fact that the official explanation endorsed by the official media is the most extravagant conspiracy theory on record.

'Superpower' USA Forced to its Knees by Taliban
gan, Sunday, Jun 19 2011, 9:00pm
Yes, it's now confirmed after puppet Afghan president Karzai, spilled the beans; America, the world's leading 'superpower' (my arse) has been brought to its knees by a bunch of rag-tag fighters in Afghanistan -- the same as prevailed against Alexander the Great, the British Empire and the 'FORMER' Soviet Union (LOL) how very sweet it is!

Europeans Balk at Their Role in NATO
Marti Hiken via reed, Sunday, Jun 19 2011, 2:28am
Robert Gates’ recent public diatribe against the 28 members of NATO (1) who are “consuming security and not producing it,” and not doing their fair share in the bloody fighting, is either a warning or harbinger that the relationship between the U.S. and the European nations is changing. European nations are refusing to participate in America’s wars, and the U.S. doesn’t like it.

America Doesn’t Commit War Crimes it Commits Euphemisms
beau, Friday, Jun 17 2011, 10:10pm
Allow me to introduce myself, my name is very bad grammar and tortured English. I am American! Proud to call the loss of personal Freedom and Liberty, ‘Homeland Security;’ very proud to participate in the ‘Patriot Act’ and wave our blood-soaked star-spangled banner at every Illegal war we wage; prouder still to refer to the millions of civilians we have murdered in Korea, Indo-China, Central Asia and Africa, as ‘Collateral Damage;’ extremely proud of our legal system which maintains its integrity by allowing our agencies and military to ‘Waterboard’ instead of Torture; and very tolerant of strangers touching my genitals in order to ‘Keep me Safe.’ Perhaps I could sum it all up by simply stating we live in our own private asylum for the criminally insane called the United States of America!

Lulzsec Hacks Downunder
Natalie Apostolou via Kismo, Friday, Jun 17 2011, 12:47am
Recent hacks around the 'globe' (space is irrelevant) are designed to demonstrate a few digital REALITIES to the WORLD, not least of which is the MYTH that western governments are in control; that 'your' governments are protecting you etc, etc; nothing could be further from the TRUTH as the recent Hacks on the CIA and other MEGA Corporations (that spare no expense to safeguard their data) clearly demonstrate!

OWNED: CIA Web site hacked, group LulzSec takes credit
Ellen Nakashima via Kismo, Wednesday, Jun 15 2011, 10:24pm
The hacker group LulzSec claimed credit Wednesday for taking down the CIA’s Web site for a couple of hours, the latest in a string of embarrassing Web site disruptions the group has pulled off — apparently more to poke fun and highlight vulnerabilities than to cause real damage.

'Tracebook' denies Users Leaving in Droves
staff report via reed, Wednesday, Jun 15 2011, 12:00am
Favourite police and agency resource, Facebook, recently denied losing users though the stats would indicate otherwise. It seems the alienated, lost generation has finally become disillusioned with their 'digital friends' and a company that refuses to delete sensitive data at the request of the user!
Collecting highly personal and detailed profiling data was not enough for this intrusive company. Facebook has now included a Big Brother type digital face recognition 'feature' which would allow authorities to detect you in a crowd with street cameras, should the (future) occasion arise!
Wake up, you LOST, lonely, morons! (story and 1 image)

Washington Darling Silvio Berlusconi gets a taste of REAL Democracy
dasha, Tuesday, Jun 14 2011, 9:57am
Former media magnate and temporary Prime Minister of Italy, Silvio Berlusconi, has been jerked back to reality with an overwhelming defeat; though the issue related to nuclear energy, the PEOPLE expressed more than that issue required. Clearly THE MAJORITY of Europeans have had enough of corrupt, elitist government and MASS MEDIA DECEPTION, Berlusconi’s speciality! Analysts are now pondering the ramifications for other European lackey leaders, Papandreou, Sarkozy, Cameron, Merkel and a host of newly corrupted East European puppets that toe Washington’s DEEPLY UNPOPULAR, permanent war, civilian killing (and via its IMF and World Bank) AUSTERITY, line!
