That's funny. I've never thought of myself actually doing the public a
FAVOUR by not unleashing "NEW" material onto the market when appropriating
perfectly good old material.

My, I feel much better now, almost eco-friendly. Ahhhh... sort of like
fostering instead of having new babies... URGHGGHHHH!!!!

   "It is clearly not enough anymore to liberate billboards,  hack corporate
websites or smash store-front  windows for these are merely superficial wounds
inflicted upon a deeply entrenched, systemic organism. They have even become a form
of institutional rebellion; cynically sanctioned and even celebrated by the very
entities these tactics were originally deployed against. 
   So what next then? If not these, then what other forms of guerrilla action do we - as able culture jammers and indignant protestors - have at our disposal? 
   I believe that the next wave of anti-corporate activism will strike in the form
of an information warfare. The most successful campaigns will initiate and deploy
viral 'info-bombs' that disable targeted corporations by attacking them at their
most vital (and exposed) points: share value and brand identity."
