  1. Chat with Andrew Stein
  2. December 12, 2010
  3.  
  4. Barrett Brown: NEW ENGINE
  5. Barrett Brown: also, what do you make of this?
  6. Barrett Brown: http://hacker.us/
  7. [Trimmed]
  8. Andrew: I dont know what to tell you about this site
  9. Andrew: what are you asking me specifically?
  10. Barrett Brown: about the guy
  11. Andrew: I dont understand the prose
  12. Barrett Brown: Gregg Housh
  13. Barrett Brown: I'm just trying to figure out what they're saying he did
  14. Barrett Brown: there are those chat logs
  15. Barrett Brown: but not sure what to take from them
  16. Andrew: oh
  17. Barrett Brown: they're claiming he helped CoS in exchange for deal, but I don't know if that's true
  18. Andrew: it looks more like they're claiming he turned in CoS for a deal with the fbi
  19. Barrett Brown: turned in Church of Scientology?
  20. Andrew: where do you see a reference to the chruch of scientology?
  21. Andrew: looks like this is about warez server maintainers
  22. Barrett Brown: yeah, those are where the chat logs come from, I just don't understand what the chat logs mean in the context of the CoS prosecuting him
  23. Barrett Brown: anyway, he's become the go-to guy for media that want info on Anonymous
  24. Barrett Brown: as he was one of the five people who put out the Chanology video
  25. Barrett Brown: and who are now active in Wikileaks defense
  26. Barrett Brown: and we're going to do a book together next year
  27. Barrett Brown: and he's provided some of his assets to Project PM
  28. Barrett Brown: and now hangs out in our IRC
  29. Barrett Brown: so, as you can imagine, I need to know these things
  30. Barrett Brown: but maybe this isn't a very good site from which to get answers
  31. Andrew: ok, this doesnt seem to have anything to do with scientology, just that he had an a priori conviction for warez
  32. Barrett Brown: okay
  33. Barrett Brown: that makes more sense, I was confused
  34. Barrett Brown: by the title, "Church of scientology loves Housh"
  35. Andrew: right
  36. Barrett Brown: apparently it's just an inflammatory joke
  37. Andrew: he apparently turned in some other warez kids when he got busted
  38. Barrett Brown: okay, I have no problem with that
  39. Barrett Brown: he didn't turn in anyone on the CoS thing
  40. Barrett Brown: lol warez
  41. Andrew: lol, indeed
  42. Barrett Brown: shit's getting cyberpunk
  43. Barrett Brown: up in this piece
