Today Lulzsec wrote a public letter to the US FBI.  It's a manifesto, a declaration of independence.

Later, Greg Maxwell released a 33 GB torrent of public-domain scientific papers, along with his own declaration of independence:

Lulzsec is anonymous and Greg Maxwell is not, but both are accepting bitcoin donations, the currency of independence.

Is this good or bad for the bitcoin experiment?  Will you support them?
