Note that several members of the channel have already seen Barr’s e-mails. (Read the full public log.)

[23:53:49] Ohai CogAnon

[23:53:56] Hello, Mr. Barr.

[23:54:12] Mr. Barr and his infiltration of Anonymous; “Now they’re threatening us directly”, amirite?

[23:54:16] I apologize for what’s about to happen to you and your company.

[23:54:20] Enjoying the Superbowl, I hope?

[23:54:25] high one sec. please

[23:54:25] I really do, Mr. Barr.

[23:54:36] You have no idea what’s coming next.

[23:54:36] tflow: How are things going with that, anyway?

[23:55:24] CogAnon is clearly super 1337 with his PM psyops skills in the Washington area

[23:55:29] ok...sure I figured something like this might happen.

[23:55:42] CogAnon: nah, you won’t like what’s coming next

[23:55:51] CogAnon: Can you guess what’s coming next?

[23:56:00] Ooh, a fun game - guess!

[23:56:02] dude...you just don’t get it. it was research on social media vulnerabilities...I was never going to release the names...

[23:56:11] LIAR

[23:56:14] as I told CommanderX last night.

[23:56:16] CogAnon: You went to press

[23:56:22] CogAnon: yeah we read the facebook conversation, and every other conversation

[23:56:23] With info that was largely false

[23:56:24] CogAnon: only that your research like totally failed and all your info was bullshit

[23:56:25] c0s> CogAnon: that article was a hit peice.

[23:56:27] ok whatever...whoever has done this has tied my hands now though.

[23:56:37] I suggest you go to Bloomberg and explain

[23:56:38] CogAnon: Don’t you have a meeting with the FBI Monday morning?

[23:56:39] ok

[23:56:42] Sabu: he totally does

[23:56:44] CogAnon: I feel sorry for what’s about to happen. I really do.

[23:56:45] Tomorrow @ 11am?

[23:56:46] CogAnon: we’ll send that to your FBI friends, so they have that before your talk tomorrow

[23:56:49] yep...they called me.

[23:56:51] Moral of the Story: Don’t drum up business by banging on a hornet’s nest.

[23:57:01] I have a lot of people calling me.

[23:57:02] You intended of battling anonymous in the media for media gain and attention

[23:57:04] well let me ask you

[23:57:08] you got the media attention now

[23:57:10] how does it feel

[23:57:11] ?

[23:59:50] im talking

[23:59:50] lol..ok guys well u got me right. :)

On February 7, Barr’s compromised Twitter account contained the following posts, which appear to be from Barr himself—though it’s hard to say. (Those from his Anonymous persecutors have a very different tone, and contain more links and profanity.)

Ok. Well this has been fun. Anon has certainly done a number on me for the last, wow has it only been 24hrs? Seems longer...

site defaced, twitter hacked, email taken...priceless.

Does this mean I have become an internet celebrity...not quite how I imagined it?

ok. So Anon has done a number on me. Probably going to take a bit to piece things together, probably more to come.
