The Church of Scientology's European website was hacked and defaced earlier today by hackers claiming to be members of Anonymous. Anonymous proponents previously hacked Scientology's main website, www.scientology.org. The group also protested the church in February 2008.

The hacked websites contain content taken from .whyaretheydead.info, a website critical of Scientology which lists members of the Church who are alleged to have died while in its care. Anonymous has stated that whyaretheydead.info was not involved in the hacking, but the hackers merely used content from their website. This is not the first time hackers have defaced Scientology websites. In January 2008, 'Anonymous' hacked the Church's international website by using a denial-of-service attack. The attack caused the website to be inaccessible for nearly 24 hours.

disappointing, it's like someone brining Molotov Cocktails to a peaceful protest. No need to break the law. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.12 (Darwin)

The confirmation that anyone in the Anonymous collective had anything to do with it is pretty weak. (Comments in the hacked page source.) It could have been a CoS op, working tirelessly on trying to get the "Terrorist" label to stick, although they probably wouldn't have used a copy of WhyAreTheyDead.
Meanwhile, CoS shuffled scientology-europe.org behind the Prolexic shield for now.

well, there is not the least need of anonyous people to defaced the scientology websites: cultists inside can very well do it themselves. Even Dwarfscavige could act that way to try to get rid of "anonymous". It is not , by far, the firt time that cultists have tried to make believe that they were enemies to get at anticult throats.
That's even what they do permanently, by defacing, "sort of", the vocabulary and words used in topics like mind, psychologye, religion, spirituality, where a criminal gang is called the best religion ever and its opponents, the worse implanters ever.

I'm pretty sure they'd *never* have used a copy of WATD. If they'd done it it would have just been illiterate threats against themselves. There's no reason to think anyone previously connected to Chanology did it, though, other than some vague probability.

I agree. It could have been an OSA operation to focus the attention on crimes of their enemies. It could also have been some individual who thought it would be neat to do something so stupid. I think most connected with Anonymous have learned by now that such "pranks" are stupid and counterproductive and come back to haunt them.
Did someone get Mikey Gormez's WhyTheyAreDead website webbed? I certainly hope so. Mikey's site was fantastic. If so, what's the url for the preseent site? It was my understanding that the original website expired/disappeared before it could be transferred to (or webbed by) someone else.

Correct, they wouldn't hack their own site that way if at all. I don't think they're at all strategic about the Internet, since LRH died long before he could write anything about how to "handle" it. And if someone or a few people from Chanology did it, so what? There's a good reason why Anonymous called itself that.

Fits in with their pattern of sending themselves bomb threats, doesn't it...

Well, since I opened up C of $/OSA's "Anonymous" accounts, and they told me they'd hired "Computer Experts" to do a lot of the work, it isn't too impossible to imagine these "Experts" getting an order to "Degrade Anonymous any way you can"....and thus.....
Did they? Who knows. Right now, Scientology has SO much *shit* flying their way, they're literally sliding down Niagara Falls, yelling "Fire" and hoping someone gets it.
"Today Thursday November 5'th 2009 in Los Angeles on the talk show radio station " KFI - 640 AM " at 6:00p.m. Dj's John and Ken will be interviewing Marc Headley (was out at "Gold" with head of Scientology for 15 years and escaped out ) on his defection and? his ~~~HOT~~~ new book " BLOWN FOR GOOD "
