The Occupy Wall Street protests have been going on for a month. And it seems the FBI and NYPD have had help tracking protesters' moves thanks to a conservative computer security expert who gained access to one of the group's internal mailing lists, and then handed over information on the group's plans to authorities and corporations targeted by protesters.
Since the Occupy Wall Street protest began on September 17, New York security consultant Thomas Ryan has been waging a campaign to infiltrate and discredit the movement. Ryan says he's done contract work for the U.S. Army and he brags on his blog that he leads "a team called Black Cell, a team of the most-highly trained and capable physical, threat and cyber security professionals in the world." But over the past few weeks, he and his computer security buddies have been spending time covertly attending Occupy Wall Street meetings, monitoring organizers' social media accounts, and hanging out with protesters in Lower Manhattan.
Full size As part of their intelligence-gathering operation, the group gained access to a listserv used by Occupy Wall Street organizers called September17discuss. On September17discuss, organizers hash out tactics and plan events, conduct post-mortems of media appearances, and trade the latest protest gossip. On Friday, Ryan leaked thousands of September17discuss emails to conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart, who is now using them to try to smear Occupy Wall Street as an anarchist conspiracy to disrupt global markets.

BINGO. Call them what they really are: commies, libtards, anarchists, criminals, homeless crack dealers, lazy leeching white students etc.
As budgets go aren’t most of these gummit operations among the poorest 99%? So hey they belong on board too....
On Tuesday, liberal 'Occupundit' Adrien Chen of The Gawker wrote about Thomas Ryan and Andrew Breitbart disparagingly and attempted to smear their reputations. Meanwhile, Chen continues to tell lies about the intentions of the Commie Campers currently squatting on Wall Street.
An anarchist conspiracy supported by the President, the Democrats, Hollyweird elite, billionaires, unions, commies, nazi’s and everyne else....
Yep.... they fighting FOR the man.

And just why would these people (and I use the term very loosely) want to hide their motives and actions. I would think that if they were on the up and up they would be shouting it from the mountain tops rather than slinking and skulking like a cheap Democrat.
He should have sent them to our own P.J Comix, he really knows how to use this sort of material!
Ef-em if they can’t take a joke.
Tom, you best be watching your back. The worthless slacker in the White House has no compunctions about murder.
“Snitched? Like the cops couldnt sign up for a mailng list.”
Cops doing their job, Homeland Security...hey, where IS homeland security in all these anarchist styled riots, anyway?
Good thing we have the FBI and NYPD, and good Americans who are thinking straight.
