Our mission is to continue where our colleagues the ILF left off. During the next month, we the members of H4G1S, will be launching an attack on corporate America. All who profit from the misuse of the internet will fall victim to our upcoming reign of digital terrorism.

Our privileged and highly skilled members will stop at nothing until our presence is felt nationwide.

Even your most sophisticated firewalls are useless. We will demonstrate this in the upcoming weeks.

KEVIN MITNICK IS CURRENTLY IMPRISONED FOR NOTHING MORE THEN HIS CURIOUSITY AND DESIRE TO LEARN. KEVIN HAS BEEN ROTTING IN A PRISON CELL FOR 2 YEARS AND STILL HASN'T GONE TO TRIAL.

ED CUMMINGS WAS THROWN IN PRISON FOR POSSESSING NOTHING OTHER THAN A COUPLE PIECES OF ELECTRONICS FROM RADIO SHACK. HIS COUNTRY DESTROYED HIS LIFE. WHILE IN PRISON CUMMINGS WAS SUBJECTED TO POOR PRISON CONDITIONS AND TREATED AS IF HE WERE A MURDERER.

The injustice doesn't just end with Kevin Mitnick, there are others who have been targets of the government. Ed Cummings (aka BernieS) went to Prison for possessing a timing crystal (used in various el ectronic devices and can be purchased at Radio Shack) along with a Tone Dialer (also obtainable at Radio Shack). If you put these two things together in the right way, it is possible to use this device to trick the phone company into believing that you inserted a quarter into a payphone. Mr. Cummings never had these parts combined, and therefore never commited any crime. But NO, the government said he commited a crime, and what happens? He goes to prison because they say so. It wasn't hard to see th at things were going wrong for Mr. Cummings. A person being charged with man slaughter got bail set substantially lower then Mr. Cummings. Is itjust me or does that sound ridiculous?

You can blame us
Make every attempt to detain us
You can make laws for us to break
And "secure" your data for us to take
A hacker, not by trade, but by BIRTHRIGHT.

Some are born White, Some are born Black
But the chaos chooses no c olor
The chaos that encompasses our lives, all of our lives
Driving us to HACK
Deep inside, past the media, past the government, past ALL THE BULLSHIT:
WE ARE ALL HACKERS

Once it has you it never lets go.
The conspiracy that saps our freedom, our humanity, our stability and security
The self-propagating fruitless cycle that can only end by force
If we must end this ourselves, we will stop at nothing
This is a cry to America to GET IN TOUCH with the hacker inside YOU
Take a step back and look around
How much longer must my brothers suffer, for crimes subjectively declared ILLEGAL.

All these fucking inbreds in office
Stealing money from the coun try
Writing bills to reduce your rights
As the country just overlooks it
PEOPLE OF AMERICA:
IT'S TIME TO FIGHT.

And FIGHT we WILL
In the streets and from our homes
In cyberspace and through the phones
They are winning, by crushing our will
Through this farce we call the media
Through this farce we call capitalism
Through this farce we call the JUSTICE SYSTEM
Tell BernieS and Kevin Mitnick about Justice

This is one strike, in what will soon become *MANY*
For those of you at home, now, reading this, we ask you
Please, not for Hagis, Not for your country, but for YOURSELF
FIGHT THE WHITE DOG OPRESSOR
Amen.
