Stay Frosty Jester.....


EXCLUSIVE: Pro-US hacker 'The Jester' takes aim at nations helping Snowden


By Jana Winter
Published July 02, 2013
FoxNews.com

The self-described patriot hacker known as “The Jester” says he’ll carry out cyber attacks on countries considering granting asylum to Edward Snowden.

Beginning early Monday, The Jester hacked into several government websites in Ecuador as reports circulated that Snowden, who divulged secrets on the National Security Agency’s spying programs, could be headed there. With Venezuela emerging as a possible landing spot for Snowden, The Jester told FoxNews.com he could turn his attention to that South American country.

“These are enemies and I that's how I will be treating them, and anyone who facilitates them,” The Jester told FoxNews.com in an online interview.

The Jester launched denial of service attacks on a website hosting Ecuador’s tourism ministry and on another that hosts the country’s stock market home page. While in communication with FoxNews.com, he appeared to be taking the sites on and offline. When Ecuador abruptly reversed its stance and said it would not harbor Snowden, The Jester told FoxNews.com he would restore the sites. Within minutes, they were back online.

The Jester’s real identity is not known, but he has hacked into various jihadist websites, taking down Internet forums where terrorists and wannabes gather online. He calls himself a “hacker for good,” and he told FoxNews.com that he sees people like Snowden and Julian Assange, the WikiLeaks mastermind who has also disseminated government secrets, as similarly dangerous to U.S. interests.

I posted that at 12:42 today in the Snowden in Moscow thread...does that mean I get one of my "failure to search" reprimands removed?

Trying to get out of one hole and probably digging another!

I bow to his supreme authority...as always. He'll probably smack me upside the head with an E-Tool for that one either way!

Damn. That's amazing. Smiting despots from the comfort of his couch.

Bravo.

Might have to get one of those Jester hats.

With the way he wields that shovel I wonder if he's an attorney from Colorado.

Meh. I'm a fan of his hacking Jihadi sites and such...this, though...it just smacks of "anything the government does is good; they aren't violating our rights; anyone who says the government is violating our rights, or attempts to expose bad stuff, is an enemy, and I will deal with them harshly."

Snowden may not be a hero, but he's not the bad guy here. Jester, if you want to do some good, why don't you try DoSing the NSA...or the website of every senator/representative who votes against taking this power away from NSA and FISC...just a thought...

Then again, that would entail actually putting ones 4th point of contact on the line, and risking jail time...so that's no fun, right?

Let me suggest that you put those thoughts in a series of Tweets to Jester. I am certain that he will engage you in a "conversation" on those points.

Be sure to let us know how that goes for ya too.

I post those same opinions publicly, and quite often. As it turns out, I'm in the same business...I don't hack (grew out of that phase) but I work in network intrusion detection/incident response. I'm not terribly fond of 'issuing challenges,' especially considering the prevalence of DDoS these days, but really...if you DDoS anything I own, you'll block access to a blog nobody reads anyway. Back on topic...I'm not fond of issuing challenges, and this isn't intended to be one, but I'm not living my life in fear that someone will break into my interpipes and steal all my megahertz, either...and I will be more than happy to engage Jester in conversation on the aforementioned points.

Also, like I said...I was always a big fan of the Jester...until this Snowden business. Want to fuck with Manning supporters? Go for it. Manning was no whistleblower, considering his indiscriminate dump of tons of media he never even read. Snowden...well, he's a douche, but he went about this the right, way, IMO, and broke open something the American public NEEDED to know about. Will We The People do anything about it? Probably not...but we needed to know. So yeah...this anti-Snowden hacking campaign, to me, is right up there with the people who think you're un-Amurriken if you didn't agree with the war in Iraq.

So, with that said, yes, I will engage Jester via Twitter...as soon as I sign up for a Twitter account...



Edit: Oh, and please keep hitting WBC. Anything that costs them money can't be bad.
