Three top members of the hacktivist group Anonymous have been arrested in Spain, according to local authorities. The trio was allegedly involved in cyberattacks on targets ranging from Sony to Spain's Central Electoral Board. Though police insist the three taken into custody were important Anonymous members, it's unclear whether the arrest of any three individuals can hamper Anonymous' activities.
European law now dictates that it's legal to resell digital software. How will companies like Valve deal, and when will it get to the U.S??
German band Atari Teenage Riot was recently featured in the "Never Stop Playing" ad campaign for PlayStation Vita - today founding member Alec Empire has announced that all royalties and other money arising from the ad will be donated to a website supporting hacktivist group Anonymous.

It's they're money, if they wanna give it to Anon then it's on them.
"The highly political group, named after the computer used to create its music, has been on the receiving end of more than a little criticism for "selling out" over its inclusion in the ad, particularly given Empire's history with Sony."
Oh, now I see why they did it.
How do you donate to a group that has no core? A place to donate too!?
Also, you guys realize that this band is essentially being bullied out of their lunch money, right? They've done nothing wrong and are getting harassed by whiny people that have nothing better to do.
You donate to the FreeAnon website.
...and when the song contains lyrics referring to Anonymous, and the band has a long, long history of political activism (ATR was formed out of an anti-Neo Nazi movement), I don't think anybody's being "bullied" out of anything.
In this new episode: the Bethesda vs Interplay legal drama, the Ocean Marketing debacle, Half Life 3, and Fallout: New Vegas are in the news. The Bearded Gamer takes on SOPA, Sony, and the threatened anonymous attack in his Controller Confessional AND this week's Burning Question.
In this case you start off by the tail till you reach the head. NOTHING is without a head.
Take out the legs and it will start to come crashing down.
turn them against one another. Create a civil war and bam some of them will snitch/tell on their so called brothers and sisters just to win/get by.
