Hello. We are Anonymous.

An attempt to block the sale of an important new book has been brought to our attention. This conspiracy of censorship is part of an ongoing campaign by the cult of Scientology to bury sensitive information about its activities and operations.

Author John Duignan is a highly placed Scientology defector. His new book called 'The Complex' is already making news for its detailed exposure of Scientology's business structure, mind-control techniques and armed response capabilities. It is the first time a book has been written by a senior member of the cult's elite paramilitary.

Scientology does not want you to read 'The Complex', fearful of the impact an informed public would have on its sinister agenda. Scientology respects no boundary in its suppression of critical testimony. If denial fails to discredit those who would speak out, if bullying tactics fail to intimidate, then litigation is used as a weapon of coercion.

In this case, a threat of legal action has been received by the book's publisher and communicated to leading booksellers. Amazon has removed 'The Complex' from sale in the UK, and other companies are following suit. This pattern of activity is familiar to us. Previous decisions by Amazon to delete material critical of Scientology have been exposed on the Internet and thereby reversed. It is our intent to intensify such forms of correction.

Anonymous will not permit these latest revelations of Scientology's inner secrets to disappear, nor the others that will join them as former cult members gain the courage to commit their stories to the printed page.

To the Scientology drones behind this latest censorship attempt: your efforts are self-defeating. By trying to erase the infamous Tom Cruise video from the Internet, you have effected an exponential increase in the strength of opposition aligned against you. Clearly you have still not learned from your mistakes. Your slavish adherence to a path of paranoia, oppressive secrecy and corrupt influence creates demand for the information you want to suppress. It will be the source of your undoing.

Anonymous is watching. The public will be alerted whenever you seek to conceal in shadow that which belongs in the light. You cannot hide from the internet.

We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect us.

  • bought the book =] what's the name of the song used here?

  • If by the song you mean the backing music, it was composed by an international Anonymous collaborative.

    Hope you enjoy the book, I found it a great read.

  • wesley105, never wait for something to happen. If you want something to happen you must work towards making it happen. To succeed you must get the concensus of a large enough group of people. You agenda is yours, Anonymous is no ones´ private army. If you want support you must convince people your cause is worthy then you will have the backing of Anonymous. Only people without influence wait for something to happen, often they are disappointed.

  • i have my own plans for my future attempts to change things, an im not calling yall a private army, but what is the point of attempting to take down a group without making it public and in the open? the fact that i dont know what you did to certain groups means that most likley the average man doesnt know either. mabye the group itself doesnt care and im not pretending to know what anonymous's plans are, none of my buisness anyway. im just callin it like i see it.

  • Good to hear you have plans. This is a public forum. We do public demonstrations on a monthly basis. We solicit media attention; our cause has been on TV, Radio, in books and magazines around the world. It is public. As to "the average man", far fewer people, male and female, are asking what's it about and many more are saying good on ya. The cult demonstrably cares because we are effectively causing it to behave ever more desperate, this will continue. Lastly, lurk moar.

  • Scientology: If we can't burn your books, we'll suppress them as much as we can.

    Hmm... I recall another "organisation" that indulged in book burning and the suppression of free speech. It's on the tip of my tongue but I just can't remember right now...

  • Agreed. Time to drive the final nail in the coffin. The murderous cult must die!

  • I thought it was overrated....I think for someone who was in the SeaOrg for 22 years he could have reavealed much more of the tactics / training in the paramilitary arm of the COS. I felt it was more of his life story then a revealing of the Church's inner workings....

    I just started reading " A piece of blue sky" by Jon Atack....this book is great so far and seems that Atack really digs deep down.

    I would highly recommend it.

    Peace !

  • I'm buying this book.
