Scientology vs Anonymous

It seems, that a war has been declared on Scientology. A user has published a video on Youtube, in which group calling itself "Anonymous" (nomen est omen!) declares its will to destroy the CoS. It seems that some DDoS attacks on CoS webservers already took place. Also, the group has managed to hack some CoS servers and extract some internal documents which are now distributed via filesharing services.

Here is the video:


Here is a news feature on the topic:


When searching on Youtube you will find more vids on the topic

Here is a website/wiki maintained by Anonymous and providing information on the campaign, but also links to the before mentioned documents and software to run DDoS attacks, and more.

The original declaration ends with the following statement:

We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect us.
