Some hyperbolic adjectives removed, but the core point made here is serious.

After Anonymous imposed... cyber disruptions on Paypal, Master Card and Amazon, the DOJ... vowed to arrest the culprits, and several individuals were just arrested as part of those attacks.  But weeks earlier, a... cyber-attack was launched at WikiLeaks, knocking them offline.  Those attacks were sophisticated and dangerous.... Yet the DOJ has never announced any investigation into those attacks or vowed to apprehend the culprits, and it's impossible to imagine that ever happening.

Why?  Because crimes carried out that serve the Government's agenda and target its opponents are permitted and even encouraged; cyber-attacks are "crimes" only when undertaken by those whom the Government dislikes, but are perfectly permissible when the Government itself or those with a sympathetic agenda unleash them. Whoever launched those cyber attacks at WikiLeaks (whether government or private actors) had no more legal right to do so than Anonymous, but only the latter will be prosecuted.
