Anonymous has gone after and taken down Indian government websites over the country's Internet censorship plan, which has resulted in the blocking of websites like The Pirate Bay and Vimeo.

"Namaste #India, your time has come to trash the current government and install a new one. Good luck," the @Anon_Central Twitter feed tweeted earlier today.

Hackers have since targeted the websites of the Indian Supreme Court, the All India Congress Committee, Copyrightlabs.in, the country's Department of Telecommunications, the Ministry of Information Technology, and the Jammu & Kashmir Police, according to @Anon_Central.

Anonymous is tagging its Twitter posts with calls to end censorship and save The Pirate Bay.

As the Electronic Frontier Foundation noted in February, "India has been known to censor online content, typically under the guise of national security or obscenity." That same month, Google and Facebook were required to remove from their websites content the Indian government had deemed offensive. They were among 21 companies forced to take down photographs, videos, text, and other items officials consider anti-religious or anti-social.

The Anonymous attacks started amidst reports that Internet crackdowns were blocking sites like The Pirate Bay, Vimeo, Daily Motion, and Pastebin in India.

Leading the charge is @opindia_revenge, under the #OpIndia tag on Twitter. The feed encouraged Web users to "use tor or VPNs to access torrent sites. #DEFY #government. Tell them they cannot stop you."

The @opindia_revenge feed promised continued attacks. "#India its a DDOS attack. We do not assure for how long we can keep down sites. But we are firing at them. They will face lags," it said earlier in the day.

The move comes after The Pirate Bay was hit with a DDoS. It has not been revealed who carried out the attack, but The Pirate Bay said it was not Anonymous.

Wikileaks.org has also been under attack for several days.

Technology-enabled collaboration is transformative, but what's the true potential of crowdsourcing?

About Clay Shirky's TEDTalk

The history of the modern world could read as a history of ways of arguing, social media guru Clay Shirky says. During the Arab Spring, for example, we saw protesters battle their governments' top-down control of news with Facebook, Twitter and text messaging.

As media evolve, Shirky asks, what sort of arguments will we have and how will it change the governments of nations?

"Historically, we have overestimated the value of access to information, and we have always underestimated the value of access to each other." Clay Shirky

About Clay Shirky

Clay Shirky is an adjunct professor in New York Universitys graduate Interactive Telecommunications Program, where he teaches a course named Social Weather. He's the author of several books, including his most recent, Cognitive Surplus: How Technology Makes Consumers into Collaborators.

Shirky's work focuses on the rise of networks and the use of decentralized technologies for social creation and open-source development. "A group is its own worst enemy," he says; new technologies can enable cooperative structures as alternatives to centralized and institutional structures.

How Can Social Media Make History?

An alternative to in-car voice control: a steering-wheel-mounted click wheel. Image: Patently Apple

Its rare that an Apple patent application passes through the system completely unnoticed until its actually granted, but such is the case with a patent for a wireless remote control for a car steering wheel.

The patent, Wireless remote control device for a portable media device, was discovered by Patently Apple Tuesday. It describes a touch-sensitive, iPod-style clickwheel device that attaches to a vehicles steering wheel, and is used to control a media player.

The patent specifically mentions the remote controls potential for use with mobile devices like the iPhone, iPad, and iPod. It would hook on to your steering wheel using adjustable clamping feet, and the faceplate, which could use either capacitive or resistive-touch technology, would be rotatable.

In-car entertainment and infotainment systems are becoming increasingly commonplace in todays vehicles. You can find them in everything from Toyotas to Mercedes to Fords.

These systems are usually compatible with your smartphone, allowing you to play music from your device on your cars stereo (among other uses). But theres one problem: Its not easy to safely control music playback functions while driving. Most current systems only output your devices audio, and to advance through tracks and the like, you have to manually adjust your mobile device.

Some auto manufacturers are addressing the interface hurdle via voice recognition. But if youre jamming out while youre cruising down the highway, do you really want to have to turn down the volume or yell over the music just to skip to the next track? It could be quite useful to instead adjust a remote control thats just a thumb-click away.

In case youre wondering, this patent wasnt filed during the click-wheeled iPods heyday it was originally filed in Q1 2011. It was designed by Apple UI Design Manager Policarpo Wood and Anton Davydov, a principal designer at Frog Design, the company behind the Apple IIc and NeXT workstation.
