Mike, you are like a David and Goliath here! The church has unlimited money and lots of zealots that will do their bidding so as to get Commendation Chits for their ethics file for OT VII or VIII. Lots of willing members to volunteer for OSA besides the SO OSA staff. So the fact that you caused this much upset that they have had to call out the dogs on your site… it means you have hit the mark again and again and again. We are winning because of Mike Rinder! And because of all of the people here who speak out. And because of people like Karen and S Africa and Steve and Mike and all the ex SO who wrote whistle blowiong books. Amazing that such a small handful of power big beings can take down a man with unlimited money and a vendetta. But we’re doing it. Thank you Mike for all you do! The TA is moving. Keep it up!!! And any UTR,s now would be a good time to come out to add to the forward momentum Mike has created. Just sayin’.

Sorry Alan — I don’t have a whole lot of detail about this. I know Gavino used people (including Bill Yaude) to go buy fake internet IDs back when you actually had to go to an ISP to get access (you couldn’t just create a gmail account). They were paid for in cash and Yaude had a network of people around the country who would buy these ID’s. Realize I really left that world in the late 90’s — I was on McPherson and then primarily on other posts and in the Hole after that until I left.

Brilliant! Such imagination!

I work for a colocation datacenter as a support technician. The lead tech tells me that DOS attacks most often follow after an email spammer, phishing scammer or other AUP (Acceptable Usage Policy) violator gets their servers disconnected and their account terminated.

This is a very interesting post.

I’m wondering, what are some of Scientology’s internet fair game and surveillance activities from the past that you are aware of?

Please be as specific as you can be.

I’m sure a lot of people will find your information very useful.

I’ve had a few attacks on my wiki site, which is hosted on a credit card-sized Raspberry Pi with a terabyte hard drive. They can’t even get that right! All their attacks do is cause my router to disconnect and reconnect with a new IP address, and the name server is updated to point to the new location. It’s like trying to sink a rubber ducky covered in soap. For my entertainment, it plays a sound effect when this happens.

“Loyal Lurker”. Wonderfully pointed post. VVWD!
