Anonymous Vs Vic Toews, Privacy and Ethics


UPDATE:  The Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police confirms their website was hacked on Friday afternoon.  A Twitter account linked to Anonymous posted a link to a page that publishes the login name and passwords of OACP staffers.  We asked Joe Couto, the OACP's media rep, for a comment, which you can hear in the segment below.

Last week, Minister of Public Safety Vic Toews saw personal information about his divorce posted on Twitter.  Now the hacker group "Anonymous" has posted a video releasing the name and personal information of Toews alleged mistress. The moves come in response to Toews' support for a bill granting police wider access to Canadians' online information without any permission.support a bill granting police wider access to Canadians' online information without any permission. The group believes that if the minister wants access to people's information, they should have access to his. Some wonder if Anonymous has crossed the line.
