Anti Bush/Blair internet protest N20

not my real name | 12.11.2003 11:36 | Bush 2003

An internet "sit-in" of Downing Streets website is planned for N20 in protest at the Bush visit.

In ADDITION to the massive protests planned for the visit of Bush to the UK, an online "sit-in" is to take place on the Downing Street website.

Timed to coincide with the big London gathering, the online protest is very easy to do and very effective. To take part simply RIGHT CLICK and SAVE the file in this link:  http://downingstreet.tripod.com/ds.zip , unzip the contents and follow the instructions. Easy!

A similar sit-in managed to shutdown the Downing Street site at the beginning of the war on Iraq for quite some time.

A collective effort WILL close their site! Spread the file to as many people as possible. It is virus-free/safe/easy to delete once the protest is over.

(This is intended as an ADDITION to actual protesting, and not a replacement for it. I just thought I'd mention that before anyone starts trolling with "armchair anarchists" or some similar nonsense.)

You can't directly download the file from the link above (tripod won't accept links to ZIP files from other web sites). So download it from here! I've attached it to this comment (I hope).

The file can now be accessed via  http://downingstreet.tripod.com

Mac users should be ok with this. The .zip file should open with stuffit.
(If not, just download the zip, unpack it and email the individual files to your friend.)
A mac should run the actual tool itself no problem.
