A reddit user quoted in the article: “Let’s pick ONE Senator of voted for NDAA/SOPA and destroy him like we’re doing for GoDaddy. Relentlessly investigate and find skeletons in his closet, money bomb is [sic] opponents, etc. It [sic] we could unseat someone and destroy their career it would have massive repercussions.”
What's new with that? That's gone on in politics since ancient Rome.
- SomeCallMeTim 15y agoYeah, sure. At some level there's no news there. At the same time...pretty much anyone is likely to have SOMETHING in their Internet history that they wouldn't be proud of, or that can be taken out of context. What I really worry about is if a group like Anonymous or LulzSec or similar gets involved, that the smearing could involve evidence PLANTED on servers (hacking into a server and getting all the emails out puts you in the same position required to modify or insert emails into that same server). If it really stays at the level of exposing skeletons and donating to opponents, then yes, I'd have to agree.
