I received an Email from Fixer (from Taming the Electron Episode 3, Wireless Hacking) on June 25th stating:
I am fixer of the eta, I was raided by the FBI at 6:30am pacific time, June 24 2010
All my computers were siezed, they are raiding the homes of several members.
Fix0r’s blog (ETA) Shows http://electroniktribulationarmy.com/ the actual warrant here:
Warrant
After asking more questions, he stated that the FBI was courteous and handled him and his family in a professional manner.
I was interrogated in my home for more than an hour, they left me one computer and took all my linux cds, the comp I was left with has no hard disk, and I have a single Live cd of Puppy linux to use.
They took his WeakNet Linux CD’s!
Fixer was a great guest, and a great wireless hacking go-to guy. He is the one who suggested the WiFi-Link as a great vendor for purchasing cards, and the worlds best Wireless adapter – the PCI express – Atheros AR9280 based Ubiquity SR71e that I have reviewed. Fixer has a family and wants nothing more than to escape life and live peacefully in a nice wilderness setting. He is a great guy, funny, smart and was really helpful to WeakNet Labs. I cannot vouch for other ETA members, since I did not know them. But, please, send Fixer your love in his sad times. We do, though we know not what you did wrong, you were a great guy to us. Thanks for being on our show!
