#1 Before Bush sighed the secret order (How secret is it now, BTW?), it made perfect sense for patriots to engage in partisian Cyber activities against tyrannies. However, once the feds are in it, it IS their duty to defer to the Government. They won't be any more helpful than paramilitary units in actual battles "helping" our regulars, and thus perhaps spoiling any elements of surprise, attracting premature attention, or becoming a distraction.

This doesn't mean Patriot Hackers (PHs) can't do anything: A vital component of the life blood of the modern military is intelligence. They can serve as HUMINT (Human intelligence) sources and give clues to possible vunerabilities. And it always helps to have extra eyes on the lookout. Just pass the info on and get the hell out of the way...
