To whom it may concern, and with greetings!

A few hippies (ie hippiesfromhell, or : 'the genuine article') have just
noticed with dismay that the so-called 'hacktivists' around Ricardo
Dominguez, or more probably, their 'lider maximo', Mr Dominguez himself,
have appropriated the name (electro-)'hippies'.

If Mr Dominguez, and/or his followers, have thereby, even in the most
fleeting manner, ever thought that they would be so able to ride the wave of
our (well deserved) fame and reputation, let it be known in the clearest and
most definitive manner that we always have and always will distance
ourselves from their totally inept, irresponsible, and for their followers,
most dangerous (ab)use of the Internet for their ill-conceived shenanigans.

We will probably want to come back in more details on this. But for the time
being, please, don't be misled: real hippies have nothing to do with
this 'hacktivist'/'Floodnet' / etc etc nonsense!
