The ‘Freedom fighters’ of the internet, Anonymous, started Operation India (#Opindia) a few days ago as a protest in response to internet censorship in India. During the course of this protest, Anonymous have taken down nearly 35 websites of the Government and other unlawful private organisations through DDoS(Distributed Denial of Service) attacks. However, they have been unable to awaken the Government. As a result, they have announced street protests on the 9th of June, which is a deadline for the Government to act upon and correct their deeds.

Here is a press release by OpIndia about Street Protest-

The Press Release is from #OpIndia

Greetings People of India,
Anonymous for the past many weeks had been protesting against the attack by governments and corporations on the freedom of speech and expression guaranteed to to every Indian citizen by the constitution of India.

The protest began when the Indian ISPs began blocking files haring sites and other websites under the order of the Madras High court. But was understood as and over done circus due to the fact that entire websites became unavailable when in reality specific URLs were to be blocked. This we see as an attack on the right to free speech.

The government today sensor almost all medias, the press is heavily controlled and hence is unable to speak the truth frankly without taking sides. During this time it is the social medias that exist int he Internet that helps people share and know the truth. This is the reason why the government is desperately trying to control the internet.

Once the INTERNET is censored we will loose the last and final tool we have left to exercise ourfreedom of speech and opinions. Saying that we have right to speak freely and not giving us a tool is a totalitarian system where a sense of false freedom is induced.Hence we Anonymous are today calling to the Indian public to stand up and start fighting. You the people are the power that should be ruling your country. Not a group of powerful and wealthy corporations and politicians.

On June 9th we will be organizing massive protests in multiple locations all over the country and we are calling every one who can be there to be there. We remind the Indian public that trusting a corrupt government to solve corruption and other problems is like expecting a serial killer to catch himself.

The movements will assigned within the title of Occupy India that will be kicked off this June 9th.The Cities that are getting ready to take part are Bangalore Delhi Mumbai Culcutta Chennai Kochi Mumbai Hydrabad and many more. Any one who feels they need this movement needs to be in their city can start a FB page for the Occupy City movement and let us know about it.

We call on the people to help spread this message and get your friends and family to join this noble cause.This is to be a 100% Non-Violent Civil rights protest. We will be updating the all the required information to http://opindia.posterous.com/anonymous-to-stage-street-protest-on-9th-june . The directives for the safety and proper functioning of the protest is at http://pastehtml.com/view/bzi0nxrkz.html .

Remember people of India if you do not wake up and fight, No One Else will do it for you.We are calling for the 99% to rise against the 1% who is trying to steal from their great nation and make them their slaves.We call to you India Rise India.We are with you and let us together start the revolution to make this place a better one.

We ALSO CLEARLY DISCLAIM ANY CLAIMS BY POLITICAL PARTIES OR GROUPS IN SUPPORT OF US
WE DO NOT LINK WITH ANY GROUP AND ANY GROUP THAT TRY TO LINK SO IS TRYING TO FOOL THE PEOPLE

Protest will start at 3PM IST in all cities.OpIndia members also told that they oppose the strike called on 31st and see it as an attack On the people. If you want a free,uncensored internet please join to the street protest.
 
I don't think Govt has the capacity to tackle the Anons. To catch a thief, they have to set a thief. But no sane hacker would like to get involved in protecting the Govt sites from Anons unless there's really huge monetary benefit! They too would be aware of the fact the the lunatic Govt is in plans to steal their freedom.
 
i am going to repeat the same thing again. government has nothing to worry about anonymous. there are few online services that are essential for governance. and anonymous is known to lose interest in attacking specific sites after a day or two. they would not target specific services for weeks forget months. and a downtime of a couple of hours or even days is not going to annoy anyone in the government.
 
^^ they kept Sony offline for nearly 5 months !! that said anons are a bunch of retards, this kinda action of ddosing and hacking sites does not help and as already stated by others it back fires and in most cases govts across the world point out to this and pass more strict laws .

So lemme get this straight..

In India, where internet penetration is so low that government doesn't even care how many of its own sites get hacked, where government attacks and arrests people like Anna and Ramdev for protesting against corruption using police without any fear, these script kiddies at Anonymous expect nerds to organize protests wearing masks which scream "arrest me, I must be involved in hacking your sites, rip out my hard disk and see how many torrents I downloaded for Reliance and throw me in jail under false charges with fine of 1 million rupees"?

Yeah sure, that's going to happen.
