Now the vids:

During a miniraid in Perth, a member of the public was upset about Anonymous wearing masks… until he saw Scientologists taking photographs!

Another contributor to News Blaze speaks out.  Part two in a series of unknown length.

She [a Scientologist] produced photocopies of some of our messages to the private group and said that we must stop going to that site and we must stop talking to a particular person (a family member who was on that group). We told her “no, we’re going to communicate with anyone we choose.”

Soon after that we were informed that we had been “declared suppressive” by the “church.” And, as night follows day, the disconnections came rolling in: long time friends, my employer, our contractor on our house renovation. We are very happy to be out of that ridiculous cult. They truly are nuts.

Don’t fuck with Dawn.

The new Scientology Channel, a paid channel (good to know where those fixed donations are going) is up and running and cheerfully spreading the CoS propaganda unfettered by bothersome rules about opening a new account after having your first one banned.

For what it’s worth, Youtube hasn’t responded to my previous query… so I sent another one to abuse@youtube.com. If I don’t get a response I’ll assume it was lost and just have to send it again, and again, and again.

Hello,

I am enquiring about your new Account Restoration Fee.

It seems you’ve allowed ChurchofScientology to keep their account even though their secondary AnonymousFacts account was suspended from your service.

A spokesperson for the Church of Scientology states here that they are responsible for the AnonymousFacts account: http://www.nypost.com/seven/03152008/gossip/pagesix/toms_church_counterattacks_101990.htm

Ryan Benno from Valencia, Calif., is shown, as well as Jonathan Brown from Tarzana, Calif., who is making a goofy face in his photo, and Sean Carasov from Los Angeles. None of the men in the videos could be reached for comment.

A spokesperson for the Church of Scientology said, “We absolutely made the videos.”

“We have researchers that have found these men. When you get death threats and bomb threats directly going after the church, we don’t take it lightly.”

From your own ToS agreement:

When a user has posting privileges temporarily disabled on one account, for the duration of the suspension that user is also prohibited from posting material to YouTube using any other account. Attempts to circumvent this rule may result in immediate termination without warning of all accounts.

A user whose account has been terminated is prohibited from accessing, possessing or creating any other YouTube accounts.

I would like to help others get accounts restored, but I’d like to know how much you charge for service re-instatement. I am interested in knowing which ToS violations committed on your servers by users are easily excused by the writing of a cheque.

a) How much is your new “Account Restoration Fee”?

b) Does this new policy apply to individuals or to businesses only?

c) Are all infractions wiped clean with payment, or only specific ones (such as harassment and bullying)?

d) Are payments a flat fee, or are they to be sustained daily/weekly/monthly for the existence of the fee-paying account?

I look forward to your prompt reply.

Thank you for your time,

Now that the Cult has its own Youtube page, I decided to ask Youtube to clarify a new point of their policy.

Previously the church of scientology was banned for ToS violations. One of their videos was located at ?v=XCB0HkaH0oU

The Church of Scientology now has a paid account at youtube.com/ChurchofScientology

How much is YouTube’s account restoration fee? I am interested in starting a collection to restore xenutv1 and would like to know my target.

I will keep you abreast of any developments.

“It seems like a pretty ridiculous charge, and I am very surprised that it’s going forward,” says Housh’s Braintree lawyer, Michael D. Dlott. “I spoke to a police officer who was at each of the rallies, and his take on it was that the harassment charge wouldn’t hold up, and my feeling is that this is just a free speech/right to assembly issue.”

While their masks have prevented other Anonymous members from being similarly charged, Dlott says it was his client’s trip to Boston City Hall that blew his cover.

“The Church of Scientology is known to be litigious, and that’s part of the reason why this group wears masks,” Dlott says. “But because [Housh] was the one who filed the papers necessary to conduct the demonstration, the [church] went downtown, got his name and filed the charges against him.”

Let’s see: peaceful protest, no arrests, cops reporting good behaviour… so the cult files charges (that’ll likely be thrown out) in an attempt to intimidate.  Another case of Fail Game.

The website has just a small tease, but the print edition has apparently three pages devoted to the cult.

SOME of Hollywood’s biggest names have been brainwashed and turned into “robots” by Tom Cruise’s Scientology, charges a TV star who fled from the controversial cult. Now, hunky Jason Beghe, who appeared on Melrose Place and CSI: NY, is making stunning accusations about the bizarre sect’s practices and warns Cruise’s new pal Will Smith that whatever secrets he spills to church agents - may be VIDEOTAPED! Don’t miss a single word.

“Tom Cruise’s Scientology”? That’s an odd way of hooking him into the story.

Old video is old, but it shows he doesn’t afraid of anything. (more…)

The cult abused Youtube’s automated banning script yet again. They did it with ToryMagoo44 the other day, and now they’ve done with with Mark Bunker’s xenutv1 in order to eliminate biggest video to make mainstream media rounds this week.

You know what to do.

…please read this.  And keep aware.
