Anonymous targets the Ukrainian Government & UEFA Euro 2012 - Animal Rights upon Corporate Football.

Greetings Citizens of the world, we are Anonymous.

It has come to our Attention that the UEFA Football EURO 2012 & Ukrainian Government have been engaging in one of the most brutal, bloody systematic slaughters of animals the world has ever seen. So far 80,000 dogs have been killed in the cities of Ukraine to "clean-up" the streets for a week long football event. Over 1 Million people have signed various petitions addressed directly to the UEFA and Ukrainian Government calling for an end to these inhumane acts, yet they ignore every complaint.

Student Arrested From Poland For Prime Minister's Site Hacking (Protest Against ACTA)

Yet another student is arrested for cyber crime. A 22-year-old student in south-western Poland was arrested on Friday for allegedly hacking the prime minister's website, part of a protest against a recently signed anti-piracy act. Local police confirmed that the name of the student is Lukasz S and he was arrested in the city of Wrocla. According to sources the arrest was likely in connection to a hacker attack upon Prime Minister Donald Tusk's website.

This was the screen shot of the deface page of the Prime Minister site, where the hacker is claiming that he is with anonymous and protesting against ACTA. So its very relevant that Police was suspecting thatLukasz S is a part of Hacktivist Anonymous. Though the hacker himself denied that whole thing. He said that "hacking was a 'hobby like any other, and that his act did not cause any damage." Recently hackerstargeted several government websites to protest Poland's signing of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA.)

The above video was released by Anonymous where they have clearly mentioned that they are targeting Poland with the help of Teamgreyhat. Also they have clearly mentioned that TGH has hacked more than 12K websites for their support. Not only Anon or TGH also the treaty had sparked nationwide protests in Poland, including massive street demonstration with some 20,000 people on Wednesday night in Krakow and Wroclaw. The law must still be ratified by the Polish parliament.
