Remember the confusion and shut-downs last October? Well some light has been shed courtesy of EFF Last October all people knew was that the FBI had physically seized an Indymedia server from a company called Rackspace in London. About 20 Indymedias were affected, some more than others. Rackspace said they had a gagging order placed on them. UK and US security forces refused to comment. Maybe people involved with the teck-end (and related publicity) of getting the sites back up last October would like to comment here and say whether any of these documents have any real usefulness. [Have to confess I didn't read them in detail - so this post is more of a low-on-details-newsflash than news-analysis.] |
