THIS HIGH HANDED MEASURE THREATENS SIMILAR RIGHTS HERE IN THE USA AND MAY PROHIBIT INTERNET GATHERINGS IN THE PUBLIC LAND OF CYBERIA. IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY PUBLIC RESPONSE FROM YOU TO THIS DESTRUCTION OF BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE WEST, WE THE FREEDOM LOVING CITIZENS OF THE INTERNET HEREBY DECLARE OUR WILLINGNESS TO PREVENT THIS HEINOUS GLOBAL DEGENERATION AND IMPLORE YOU TO DO ALL IN YOUR POWER TO HELP ERASE THIS SHAMEFUL BILL AND ITS INTENTION FROM PLANETARY CONSCIOUSNESS. Signed: Dr Timothy Leary, SAN FRANCISCO 11/5/94 PRESS RELEASE FROM CYBERIA Silicon Valley NOV 5: Today saw the launch of the First "Intercontinental Ballistic Meme" (ICBM) and the Virtual Invasion of Great Britain. Speaking aboard "US Yellow Cyberine" in port at Mothership Megatripolis, "Cyber Commodore" Timothy Leary, defined the aims of the Cyber Task Force: "to protect the peace and to work with true local representatives to halt the British Criminal Justice Bill" ."We want to establish, before the eyes of the world, the basic human right to dance barefoot on the grass or in the forest, whenever and wherever the whim overtakes us. Its as simple as that" He continued. "The issue is abundantly clear to the least developed among us. Either you need a license to dance or you don't. There are no two ways about it. Think For Yourself And Question Authority shall be the whole of the Law." Said Leary Led by popular cyberhero, Leary, (banned from Britain 25 years ago because of his threat to the security of the British empire.), and with full support of guerrilla CyberMailing attacks and partial landings around the Cyber Coast of the British Islands by YOU the Hacker Light Infantry. The group aims to Clog cyber Britain with the multiplicity of their protests. We are calling upon all cyber citizens outside of the United Kingdom to email as many British Government addresses as possible with this protest. THIS IS THE FIRST EXERCISE OF A GLOBAL VOTE. In the age of the information superhighway, all attempts to usurp freedom and destroy democracy will be met with a staggering world wide personal response. Everyone with an e-mail address can participate and launch this Info ICBM to impact history. This is the major reason why the rave-u-gee Zippies have come to America in the first place, fleeing injustice back home, from a country lacking a defendable Bill of Rights: to invade America where there is at least a semblance of freedom. From Coast to Coast, the plan has been to secure America's heartland and then to raise a psychic cyberarmy of zippy moles and warrior hackers to CyberInvade Britain from the West Coast, the least expected location, but where internet connections are the densest in the world. The downloading of e-mail from the west coast and the rest of the world is likely to saturate the system, precipitating a major evolution of normal consciousness and thinking patterns in the UK . -ends- -- The CyberDen - Worldwide Alternative Music & Entertainment Network 415-472-5527 - Labels, Zines, Multimedia, Bands, Artists, Cultures cyberden.com - Telnet and anonymous FTP -> Info: info@cyberden.com
