Anonymous Australia Release Video To Explain AAPT Leak

Posted on July 29, 2012 by Lee J

Late last night a video was released to the public which has a very strong Aussie accent behind it. The video was announced via the anonpr website and comes with the following transcript.

Dear citizens of the world, We are Anonymous. AAPT is Australia’s third largest land line telecommunications company and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Telecom New Zealand. The company is a member of the Infrastructure Assurance Advisory Group for the Critical Infrastructure Protection branch of the Attorney-General’s department. In the past few years the rise of censorship and filtration of freedom of speech has been on the rise. Our very own governments surveying the very same people who voted and put you , the government, in a position of power and trust. Australia, you have failed us! Now expect us! Australia ranks highly in many international comparisons of national performance, such as quality of life, health, education, economic freedom, and the protection of civil liberties and political rights. Yet Australia feels the need to censor and filter every day social and personal life? What are you afraid of? Who or what are you protecting? We, the people, feel disgusted from this decision based upon power, money, and greed. We will not sit around as we have big brother watching us from all angles and eyes pointed at everyone. Did you ever think who and what will be affected by your selfish acts? Anonymous is taking a stand and will fight for the unjust! Welcome to #opAustralia We decided to give you a taste of your own medicine… A total of 40 giga bites has been obtained using the very same techniques used on the Australian population. We as people have the right to protest in any way shape or form to get our voices heard. Let this be the first warning! Keep the people happy. You keep the population happy…… we can move on from this! Till then, Expect Us.
