We believe that privacy and access to information are basic human rights. Hacktivismo assumes as an ethical point of departure the principles enshrined in the Universal Declaration on Human Rights and the International Convention on Civil and Political Rights. We also support the Free Software and open-source movements. Cheers, MrHappy -- "Anyone who creates his or her own cryptographic primitive is either a genius or a fool.
