Take [[Hunter S. Thompson]], [[th3j35t3r]], and [[ev0]], mix the three, and strip the result of the dignity, inability to give a fuck, and all other redeeming qualities; add the internet and lack of a real job. Welcome to the world of [[Anonymous]], a strung out mediocre reporter, and self-proclaimed spokesfaggot for the "[[Anonops|Anonymous hacktivist collective]]" who, despite ongoing attempts, is '''not''' a household name. A former author (read, "I wrote two articles, does that mean I work here?") for the "American Atheist", Barrett is no more than, in layman's terms, a self-righteous, opinionated, attention-seeking cunt secretly in love with [[Kirtaner]]. A junkie that uses everything from [https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/barrett-brown-faces-105-years-in-jail-76108/ heroin], [https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/the-ballad-of-barrett-brown.html crack], [https://web.archive.org/web/20220416011917/https://barrettbrown.medium.com/barrett-brown-on-pursuance-ae7a2255b11f meth], [https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/barrett-brown-faces-105-years-in-jail-76108/ ecstasy and acid]. Eventually concluding that big brother and [[godhatesfags]] were not enough to shove his agenda towards, Barrett pretended to take on drug cartels, who have guns and power, with his computer and the effectiveness of a strongly-worded blog. Then feds arrested him and found his chat logs.

Barrett finally received some of the recognition he felt he deserved in 2011 after Anonymous declared "war" on the Zetas, who were underestimated as being a bit more dangerous than the 13-year-olds and ghetto police websites usually targeted by 1337 Anons. Demanding the release of [http://www.dailydot.com/news/anonymous-mexico-los-zetas-kidnapping-skepticism/ an alleged Anonymous member taken hostage by Zetas] (remember, [https://www.wired.com/2011/10/opcartel/ alleged]) Brown and buddies threatened to release the names of 75 Zeta enablers that were purportedly collected through "hacked" emails. When Barrett finally wrote a book, he said he "made a few halfhearted efforts to obtain information" but that he "lacked the wherewithal to get anything accomplished" because of drugs and mental problems, and forgot about the emails he claimed he had.

On one hand, Brown has cartels after him, however, th3j35t3r has done a stellar job of pissing off already-enraged terrorists. Only time will tell.

[14:14] <@th3j35t3r> okay brown - post the phrase 'I harass innocent people by phone'
[14:14] <@th3j35t3r> on your twitter
[14:14] <BarrettBrown> Sure, after you post "I accuse random people of being criminals"
</pre>

==Fuck you - time to cash out==
In 2011, Brown [https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2011/05/why-anonymous-spokesman-is-leaving-the-group/ turned on Anonymous] and signed a [https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/barrett-brown-hacktivist-author-anonymous/ book deal for $100,000] with snitch Gregg Housh. The fake book never came out.

{{quote|@backtracesec Know anything about the man who photographed me repeatedly, up-close after my speech at city hall in NYC, 2011?|Barrett Brown}} 

{{story|<pre>
07:59:42 <%BarrettBrown> does anyone know about the nut that has been harrassing me for the last 
                         few days?
08:00:06 <%BarrettBrown> apparently i was told by Backtrace Security he was the HB Gary stalker 
                         that photographed me
08:02:39 <%BarrettBrown> i was informed regarding such about the photographer, was the nut known as 
                         BobbyCarbon
08:04:22 <%BarrettBrown> the individual claimed he worked for the Derector of National Intelligence 
                         a few weeks ago.  He apparently called me with a spoofed number. 
08:05:09 <%BarrettBrown> now i have this incident involving the photographer
08:06:01 <%BarrettBrown> and him harassing me last night, regarding Operation Ethiopia
08:06:18 <%BarrettBrown> i am not losing it

08:07:06 <%BarrettBrown> i recently haven't been taking my Risperidone
08:07:48 <%BarrettBrown> and my Subtex for heroiine withdraw
08:08:09 <%BarrettBrown> i'm having massive heroine withdraws now....
08:10:18 <%BarrettBrown> i haven't been taking my suboxone and and risperidone recently
08:12:54 <%BarrettBrown> my psychologist prescribed me risperidone recently to take care of my 
                         schizophrenia diagnosis
08:14:34 <%BarrettBrown> i've been feeling that the FBI is tapping my cell phone recently
08:15:26 <%BarrettBrown> further research into Man Tech and Endgame has lead me to conclude that 
                         they are hiring individuals to photograph and track me
08:16:19 <%BarrettBrown> o
08:16:19 <@SanguineRose> <BarrettBrown> my psychologist prescribed me risperidone recently to take 
                         care of my schizophrenia diagnosis
08:16:23 <@SanguineRose> <BarrettBrown> further research into Man Tech and Endgame has lead me to 
                         conclude that they are hiring individuals to photograph and track me
08:16:41 <%BarrettBrown> i'm going through some massive heroin withdraws too
08:17:38 <%BarrettBrown> suboxone isn't helping me anymore, probably need to get into a methadone 
                         clinic
08:23:33 <%BarrettBrown> my schizophrenia is getting worse i think...
08:25:50 <%BarrettBrown> i'm thinking the FBI is seriously tapping my phone lines now
08:30:26 <%BarrettBrown> but i'm sure Aaron Barr is up to his old tricks to harass me
08:30:33 <%BarrettBrown> with sending photographers....
08:32:57 <%BarrettBrown> anyone here taken risperidone?
08:33:47 <%BarrettBrown> sh4ri4..... was it for schizophrenia?
08:33:52 <%BarrettBrown> i'm taking it now....
08:34:39 <%BarrettBrown> yea it's making me eat more...

==Stratfor snitching==

After Barrett fought with the AntiSec hackers, he [https://www.dailydot.com/debug/barrett-brown-sentencing-evidence/ emailed the Stratfor CEO about the Stratfor hack] before the emails leak.

I have reason to fear for my life.|Barrett Brown}} 

While conning many [[aspie|autistic]] kids about the "importance of [[skiddie|Anonymous]]", he was [[Partyvan|arrested]] on September 12th, 2012.  His various charges including [[DDoS|stealing money]] from garden gnomes.  

In his disillusioned state he managed to think Sabu was after him.  Little did he know it was really an [[botnet|army of Los Zetas]] exacting revenge for #OpCartel.

About two years after the above video was posted, the Internet was all [[Twitter|atwitter]] with speculation about how many centuries Brown would get. It was also revealed that the video above was taken down by persons unknown, but thankfully [http://thecryptosphere.com/2014/12/16/barrett-brown-of-anonymous-sentenced-today-watch-the-full-arrest-video/ a new, more complete version has surfaced].

When the feds got Barrett's computers, they found thousands of pages of [https://www.dailydot.com/debug/barrett-brown-sentencing-evidence/ logs he'd kept on anons] and used them against [[Jeremy Hammond]].

==Detective Barrett==
Kevin Gallagher overdosed, so Barrett became a detective to find out why everyone was part of an FBI plot.

==On the run==
Barrett tried moving to Antigua but had to leave when he [https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/the-ballad-of-barrett-brown.html threatened to kill a taxi driver]. He went to London for asylum for but he got himself arrested there too. He says the cops told him about sealed charges when no one else was there. Europe said no to asylum because Barrett Brown is not wanted.

==Snitch scheme==
[[File:barrett and the snitch.jpg|thumb|right]]
Before FBI snitch Val Broeksmit talked met with the FBI about Barrett, Val told him about the meeting. Barrett [[snitch|hides this]] but probably has a good reason.
