This is a typical anti-movement again without any content. I do like the
idea of revolution, but I think, that anything you do has to be FOR
something and not just AGAINST something. As you might as well see,
there are no goals of this project apart from the goal of creating an
empty webspace, which is actially identical to the goal of the wast
majority of the corporations, including MATAV, againts whom this crusade
is going.
