A new guide published on zinelibary.info shows how one can plan and execute an act of civil disobedience. It covers the various tools which are available for launching an ECD, examples of past ECDs, how to anonymously participate in ECDs, and much more.

Repost @zone-h:

Since Zone-H started its mirroring activity of defacements, it always witnessed any sort of hacktivism. Sure, most of the times defacers are/were/will be just defacing *just for the pleasure of it* but when it comes the time of big protests related to world's events, we are used to see both regular defacers or improvized cyber protesters taking a stand and spell out their disappointments by posting something using the defacement media.

Because... yes.... defacement is a media, it has been proven in several occasion that by defacing just one well targeted website, defacers were capable to attract the attention of regular medias which were reporting his message to the world.

Today, I was reading the news related to the clashes happening right now after the results of the Iranian political election which has been won by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad with a percentage that usually belongs only to countries ruled by a strong dictatorship and that any sort of statistical analysis would label at least as an *anomaly*.

But what happened in the cyber-world? Did we witness any sort of digital protest as we used to see in the past like those related to the Kashmir dispute? Or something like the Estonian bronze statue protest? Or even the Prophet Mohammed cartoon protest?

So this morning I woke up with the wish to check the on-hold mirrors to see if some voices were raising in the cyber world....

... with zero results.

Surprisingly (or not?) the voice of cyber-protesters is still focused on:

wishes of death to Israel, Usa and Denmark (still, after 3 years!):

and absolutely nothing, zero related to the recent Iranian happenings.

Yet another statistical anomaly?

UPDATE:

I received a message from an Iranian defacer. He says that he indeed protested during the election days

I didn't notice it as... I don't speak Farsi language.

We recieved the following tip today:

International Electronic Civil Disobedience in Solidarity with Greek Anarchists

Hackers Against Oppression have called for Electronic Civil Disobedience in Solidarity with Greek Anarchists on Wednesday Dec 31, the final day of December. December is the month in which Alexandros Grigoropoulos, a 15-year-old Anarchist, was murdered in cold blood by Greek Police. It is also the month that will forever be remembered by all those who struggle. Minutes after his murder, thousands of Greek residents took to the streets as did thousands around the world. Even liberal groups have called for the resignation of the Greek government. The streets were taken back for the people, police buildings were firebombed, and banks were turned into empty charred-out boxes. This entire time, the Greek government has been fighting and oppressing people with guns, tear gas, and the media. It's time that we take them down.

We will be attacking the websites of the Greek Police and the Prime Minister. They are directly responsible and we will directly respond. They will no longer be able to spread their lies to the media about what is going on in the streets. You can either load the file on the day of the action or download it ahead of time. We suggest downloading it ahead of time in the event that our site get shut down.

Please download the file you will need from one of the following mirrors we have set up. When the time comes, open it in your web browser ( ie Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer) and help us take them down! This action is part of a series of actions that will unfold over the next few weeks, targeting those who participate in and benefit from oppression.

You can also just open www.primeminister.gr and www.astynomia.gr in your browser and keep refreshing them. There are plenty of add-ons for Firefox that will do this. Just go to Tools>Add-ons and search for it. This will be a useful tool in further actions.

To a thousand more Decembers of resistance!
