People of New Zealand:
Anonymous is aware of the current situation regarding the actions taken against your citizens accused of piracy. We are against the extent of these actions and would like to assist you in standing up to this abuse of power. The Copyright Amendment Bill has crossed the line by allowing an individual's internet access to be cut off for supposedly downloading copyrighted files and/or watching specific YouTube videos.
We - Anonymous - want to help, but you must first help yourself by standing up for your rights. Support yourselves, and support freedom on the internet by joining us on the #opnzinfo on irc.anonops.net .
