By Wichita Peace and Freedom Party Examiner;
A man has been caught hacking the Koch Brothers-Backed Americans For Prosperity Website. This all started in late February with Anonymous announcing plans to hack into such sites as acts of sabotage.
Charles and David Koch are headquartered here in Wichita even though they participate in political activities nation-wide. As reported in The Wichita Eagle;
“A Wisconsin man recruited by the computer hacking group Anonymous faces charges in a cyberattack on Koch Industries in Wichita, a federal prosecutor announced Tuesday.
Eric J. Rosol, of Black Creek Wis., is accused of one count of conspiracy to damage a protected computer and a single count of damaging a protected computer, U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said in a news release.”

If convicted Rosol could face a possible five years in federal prison and a maximum fine of $250,000 on each count.
The Huffington Post reported on the intentions of Anonymous back on February. The article reported that anonymous would target Americans for Prosperity’s website. At least one such hacker succeeded. But he may face prison time for his actions.
We can’t justify people breaking the law, but corporate rulers need to realize they can’t just buy the political system and then start voting away people’s rights. Not only that, they have become experts at cutting off the voices of protest to the mainstream media, or vastly marginalizing them.

Anonymous made their intentions known to RT Television. Anonymous said they are looking for vulnerabilities of the Koch brothers, since they got involved with Gov. Scott Walker’s union busting campaign.
As of today, the website is up and running.
How can they expect people to just put up with being silenced? There is a price to pay for suppressing people’s rights. The Koch brothers need to learn this. If they didn’t already know, people will find their vulnerabilities. They have manipulated the press and this society’s political system and they should expect retribution.
