emptywheel tells it better than I ever could. In short: banks, corporations and the Chamber of Commerce have hired Themis (a trio of security firms) to "wage war" on organizations "extorting" or "slandering" ... their words... corporations by using free public speech to criticize them. Themis is said to have employees with Joint Special Operations Command backgrounds and the undisguised intention to use those same skills in squelching free speech against corporations.
O brave new world, that has such corporate persons in it!
