It all started with a video on the website called "YouTube", in which Tom Cruise talked about his association with the Church of Scientology. The promotional video however did not present him very well which is why the video was removed from the internet. The community of computer fans reacted by starting a hacker attack on the official US Scientology website. Since then, more people have expressed their desire to stage a peaceful and legal protest against Scientology. They call themselves "Anonymous" and can be found all around the world. They have become known for their unconventional methods of protest, which include demonstrations with coffee, cake, loud music and a party atmosphere.Two weeks ago there was another world-wide protest. In Germany, protests took place in the cities of Munich, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Stuttgart, Frankfurt and Berlin.
