Also missing from your list is the entry that Occam's Razor demands be included. The Stratfor hack was most likely (IMO) a crime perpetrated for the value of the credit-card information rather than with (geo)political motivation.

I spoke with representatives at Discover's security department regarding an unrelated matter. They were aware of the Stratfor hack and told me that stolen card numbers that had been used for Stratfor subs were being used for small transactions. This indicates that the stolen data has been circulating among credit-card fraudsters.

I'm not sure that the Stratfor hack was in any way related to the DoS assault in opposition to SOPA/PIPA. I tend to doubt any linkage. Your list of possibilities betrays a disturbing ignorance, Linda.

I doubt there's a linkage, too. The list was re: the Stratfor hack, not SOPA/PIPA, thus some silly entries. The cause of the latter is a good cause, I agree. Congress needs a wakeup call, I'll give them that.
