I mean, it is technically true, but in a trial with a jury of peers it wouldn't matter. This reminds me of the old school outlaw definition. If you were declared an outlaw the laws of the land no longer applied to you. You could commit crimes, but it also meant anyone and everyone could commit crimes against you without repercussions. It was a bit of a given that you would commit crimes because if you were declared an outlaw you probably were already committing crimes, but now anyone could rob, harm, or even kill you and it wouldn't be a crime.

I say fuck these neo-nazis but this is cyber terrorism technically.

I call it self-defense, honestly.

Knightfox@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 210d (37 replies)

Eh, I want to like this statement because I hate these people, but I can't in good conscious call it something it isn't. This sort of thing is the essence of debate because we have good people doing bad things to bad people and then have to justify why it's ok despite it being bad. It's justice vs righteousness, it's lawful neutral vs lawful good. The only reason why this is acceptable is because it's against people that we deem not worthy of legal protection, but as a precedent that's dangerous territory. As soon as the definition of people not worthy of legal protection changes it suddenly becomes a problem.

At it's core this person probably committed a crime, but people don't care because it's against a bad ideologue. It's like if we said it's ok to round up and execute neo-nazis, a lot of people would rejoice, but if you change that to most any other group they would cry about human rights. At the end of the day rounding up and killing anyone is a bad thing no matter who it's against.

Soup@lemmy.world · 50 pts · 210d (14 replies)

At some point the scales will not balance well and you need to be ok with that. There is no paradox of intolerance, for example, because tolerance is itself part of a social contract that bigots broke all on their own and once that’s out the window they do not get to reap the benefits of it. Social contracts aren’t easy math but they do make sense.

This isn’t blowing up a furry website because someone thinks that’s weird. White supremacy is an incredibly dangerous ideology that has no place in whatever better society we claim to be aiming for. No one killed them for it, either. White supremacy built a website and a better person removed that website the same way one might paint over a swastika but leave the nice mural.

Knightfox@lemmy.world · -18 pts · 210d (13 replies)

I agree with the sentiment, but sadly can't agree with the implementation. Laws exist in a neutral environment, you can't bypass them just because the other party is someone society disagrees with. Even if they are committing crimes you can't unilaterally exact justice against them due to vigilante laws.

This event took place in Germany, Crimical Code §§ 202a-d criminalizes unauthorized access, interception, and manipulation of data, with penalties ranging from fines to imprisonment, covering acts like phishing and data espionage. Within German law this should be a crime. Germany has laws against neo-nazis, but this would be vigilantism which Germany also prohibits.

It's a slippery slope to ignore your own laws because they support the popular narrative.

Soup@lemmy.world · 29 pts · 210d (6 replies)

Look, I am aware of the dangers of vigilantism but I’m struggling to see why you’re so dead-set on this. There is basically no movement from those in power to actually curb these people and that’s where I start to care a whole lot less. Yes it’s still important to consider somewhere in there but hey, if the German government wasn’t doing anything about it then I guess that means they’ve passed on the opportunity.

Knightfox@lemmy.world · -13 pts · 210d

I'm not certain on much, but what I do know is that I believe in law. I like rules and I like order. Even more so I want rules and order to apply universally. You are arguing on the side of chaos against others with the privilege of law to protect you. That's all well and good until those same standards are applied against you.

prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 9 pts · 210d (1 reply)

It's a slippery slope

Slippery slope is literally a logical fallacy. You are not making a logically sound argument.

Knightfox@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 209d

You're right, using a slippery slope argument is a type of logical fallacy, but for it to be a logical fallacy it has to preclude a result and also be implausible in it's steps.

My argument was did not preclude a result and was more a statement of fundamental change in the nature of law. If you change the application of laws from a definite system (the law applies to everyone) to a spectrum (the law applies to some people) then you are now on a slippery slope where as before you were not. As to the plausibility of the argument, we are literally seeing this effect in real time with Trump. Laws switched from being definite to being suggestions and now no one is truly certain what laws do apply and to who.

Nothing you are saying makes sense in the framework of legal functionality. You're basically advocating for non-gun castle doctrine in which you have the right to do whatever you want against people who you disagree with and who have the potential to do something against you. We live in a society where rules apply, when you say these things you should take a second to think how these decisions would apply if they were turned against you.

Yet you live in a world where laws and nation states exist. Just because you divorce yourself from these rules or think they do not apply to your beliefs does not make it so. You're commenting like a Sovereign Citizen in the US, but the laws and legal frameworks exist whether you believe in them. To a point you must frame your discussion in their context and if you do not then your opinion doesn't matter until you change that very framework.

If your argument hinges on ignoring the legal framework then you have to be Robin Hood or the Unibomber, anything less is meaningless.

Terrorism is the use of force against civilians to influence a nation's policy. This is not it.

Knightfox@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 209d

I agreed with another comment that this is probably not cyber terrorism, because definitions of cyber terrorism indicate a wide spread impact on people while this only impacts a relatively small group. Your definition isn't quite right either as one potential goal for cyber terrorism is to cause disruption or fear. Terrorism as a general term may be politically motivated but it doesn't have to have the goal of influencing policy directly. Technically revenge can be a goal of terrorism.

Rothe@piefed.social · 25 pts · 210d (2 replies)

Technically illegal, yes, but it has nothing to do with "terrorism" though.

Knightfox@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 209d (1 reply)

You're probably right, I went back and double checked the definition of cyber terrorism and the main difference is scale of impact. To be cyber terrorism it would probably have to impact a larger group of people.

Hazor@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 209d

In the early 90s, my grandfather assured me that he fought and killed nazis, so that my generation would never have to deal with them.

He didn't say he cancelled the nazis. The word he used was "Exterminated".

Maybe we should all do that again. Exterminate the nazis. Because quite frankly, this government is lousey with them.

This is where I am at where MAGA is concerned. It would be a crimson lining to a 2nd American Civil War, where I and others can free our society of Nazi kindred for good. IMO, the 1% of America are very likely to sympathize with the Confederates, because they believe that slavery of the poors is the natural state of things.

The problem is how do you find them all? You never will since some of them are smart enough not to advertise how vile they are. And as long as a few of them still exist they'll multiply and spread their shitty philosophy.

SabinStargem@lemmy.today · 9 pts · 210d

That metric can said of just about anything regarding beliefs. The important thing is reducing the number of MAGA to levels where their beliefs can't really propagate anymore. The keys to that lies in eliminating the 1% as a class, by reducing wealth gaps and maintaining them at lower levels as an institution. This would require huge reforms, along the lines of the Magna Carta and the American Constitution, but for economics.

The 1% wield immense political power, because they hoard dynastic wealth and influence and can use it as a club against society. That is why they are the lynchpin of conservative projects, and so they must be removed as a factor, if a better society is to be fostered.

An anonymous internet allows Nazis to connect with each other without fear of social or legal consequences, thereby raising their confidence in/dedication to their ideology.

It’s certainly not on a par, but the same thing happens with weird kinks- I have one I probably would have forgotten about if it weren’t something that I then found online. Instead, because I saw that it wasn’t just me, I had the confidence to tell partners about it. And it was only because I found queer online communities that I was able to explore my gender identity and sexuality in the same way.

I absolutely support an open and anonymous internet, I just don’t know if there’s a way to stamp out bigotry and fascism while having one.

Or rather, I know how to do it, I just don’t know if we can. The answer is absolute solidarity among non bigots against anonymous bigots: cancel your contracts with platforms that host fascists or bigots, tell them and everyone else why, and get others to do the same.

Of course, at this point there are enough of them to have their own economy, so it’s not going to work now. This is more like the wound care to prevent a recurrence of the infection, instead of the infection treatment itself.

SpikesOtherDog@ani.social · 1 pts · 210d (2 replies)

I never considered the abridged as actual dubs, just satire. That puts sword art abridged as my favorite.

vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 210d

No no no you misunderstood, the Ghost Stories dub is official. It is an official dub that is on the same tier of shitpost as DBZA or SAO abridged.

This is an event that takes privacy very seriously, where it's not uncommon for speakers to present evidence of crimes, and where a large antifa-flag hangs over the entrance. I think they'll be fine.

The other two on stage where journalists, and while I'm not familiar with German law, that likely limits the police's ability to try to get to Root through them.

If reasonable precations were taken, there will not be any evidence directly tying the person on stage to the crime, and even if there was, them being in costume leaves a lot of room for reasonable doubt about who it actually was.

I had the exact same thoughts when I first started seeing this story pop up on my news feeds. Like, this person will see the inside of a prison cell for this, especially given the type of content hosted and the current make-up of the Justice Dept. What they did was, quite literally, cyber-terrorism. Hope it was worth it, I guess, given that these sites are all back online now like it never happened.

nekusoul@lemmy.nekusoul.de · 10 pts · 210d

Depends. This happened at a German conference and I assume that this person is most likely German as well. Probably shouldn't think about getting anywhere close to the US though.

There's still the possibility of facing prosecution in Germany. Not sure how probable that is though.

CXORA@aussie.zone · 6 pts · 210d

Are you sure theyre back up? The article says otherwise.

clean_anion@programming.dev · 4 pts · 210d

That data might be easily accessible, but that was a choice Root made. I think that it is a safe assumption that Root knew most vigilantes keep their identity secret and, assuming a German background, had read Section 202 of the StGB and other relevant laws and court rulings. As such, Root most likely did this despite knowing their identity is at risk. It is likely they did this publicly specifically to inspire others, though I haven't looked at all the details and there might be a different reason.

Nothing in this comment constitutes legal advice.
