Could You Live without the Machine?

The Dark, Deep State against the Truckers

In a move straight out of a dystopian fiction like V for Vendetta, hackers targeted crowdfunding platform GiveSendGo and published the personal details of every single person who had donated to the Ottawa truckers protest.
