Free Airwaves Still Illegal

"It's more fun to break the law anyway," says one anonymous pirate radio operator who has been broadcasting illegally and will continue to operate illegally, no matter what fiction of reality the NPR/NAB/FCC coalition thinks they can script.<br><br>The anonymous pirate radio operator continues: "Any hardcore radio geek or hacker is definitely not pining away in corporate america. And if they are, they are just there to funnel information back to the underground. It is a simple fact of distributed information warfare: there are more of us, we're motivated by passion, not money, and we have nothing to lose. We will win."<br><br>This anonymous hacker, who operates with the clandestine anarchist collective Anarchy on the Air, says: "Technology and the way it is produced represent multiple evils. The hierarchies that dominate technology are even worse and prevent us from doing anything to attack those evils. These hierarchies permeate everything, from the domination of tv/radio by corporate conglomerates, to independent media being dominated by fulltime activists. At the same time that people go on the attack for their favorite cause, we think they need to be focusing just as much on the hierarchies they are creating through their activism."<br><br>Anarchy on the Air is currently working on the Robin Hood Radio project, which intends to steal, finagle or scam the necessary equipment to give away free radio transmitters to "other people in our shitty economic class, regardless of how long their activist resume is."
