_ I think were going to be hearing a lot about this over the next couple of days, maybe even weeks.  To coin the phrase from Hackers “Zero Cool? Crashed fifteen hundred and seven computers in one day? Biggest crash in history, front page New York Times August 10th, 1988”.  I expect Anonymous will crash a few more systems before the backlash from SOPA/PIPA calms down.  I would like  to see the answer to the US Governments Threat Risk Assessment of the public backlash from SOPA/PIPA that asked - “Umm, do you think the fall out of SOPA/PIPA may enrage the Hacktivist community? and if so, How do you think they will respond?” Popular culture has the words to describe a planning failure like this - “He is as clumsy as he is stupid. General, prepare your troops for a surface attack.” – Lord Vader.  Maybe the Myans were right, the world as we know it may end in Cyberspace over the months ahead.
