Arsons destroying sheepskin and leather factories, as always no one harmed, strictly property damage.

Jeremy Hammond, a talented young hacker damned to a decade in prison for leaking information about private firm Strategic Forecasting being hired by US corporations and government to spy on human rights activists.
