Call to action against the International Drone Show in Denmark, Odense
On 3.-4. June 2026 at Hans Christian Andersen Airport, so-called “global players” and local startups will meet and show off their newest death toys.
These people who “just do their job” are making machines of “dual use technology”. The technology both makes you dependent on its usage in your everyday life, and can destroy that life upon the operators choice. They can try and pretend to have a cozy meeting in the middle of Fortress Europe, but we are many who live within the walls and are taking aim at the watch towers!
Drones aren’t toys, they are the very machines that terrorize and kill unnumbered people in the imperial wars haunting our times. People who have lived under the presence of drones become cautious and even afraid of clear blue skies, the perfect conditions for drone strikes. Drones fly across occupied Palestine carrying AI-assisted weaponry while playing sounds of babies crying, just to shoot the oncoming helpers. The same data center that delivers AI-girlfriends and deepfake-pornography can deliver critical information to militaries far away. Our simplest human joys and fears become the battlefield.

Pisa, Italy: “Every modern war begins in a laboratory”. Incendiary attack on the technology hub of the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies (8 April 2026)
Every modern war begins in a laboratory
During the night of 7–8 April, six incendiary devices were placed on four heavy goods vehicles and on the control units of two cranes within the construction site for a technology hub at the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies. It is impossible to ascertain the actual damage caused given the media’s complete silence on the matter; certainly, damage was done, as columns of smoke could be seen rising in the distance. Freedom for Alfredo Cospito and for all prisoners of the social war.
Berlin, Germany: Volcano Group – Shutting down fossil-fuel power plants is DIY. Have courage!
We sent the following statement yesterday, January 3, 2026, to Spiegel, taz, RBB24, RBB Fernsehen, and Radio Eins. Due to political calculations, our statement has not been made public to this day, except for a brief broadcast at 5:30 a.m. on Radio Eins. Afterward, all quotes disappeared following our intervention. This is not in the interest of those politically responsible at Stromnetz Berlin, the city of Berlin, the business community, the police, and other political forces. The media outlets contacted are acting accordingly to prevent any substantive discussion.
Stromnetz Berlin initially downplayed the damage caused by the fire at the cable bridge. While Stromnetz Berlin was likely able to compensate for the sabotage of the power plant in approximately 50,000 households by purchasing expensive electricity, the question of why this was not possible for approximately 40,000 households in Nikolassee, Wannsee, Zehlendorf, and parts of Lichterfelde is something Stromnetz owes the public an answer for. The ball is now in Stromnetz Berlin’s court.
We would like to express our sincere apologies once again for the inconvenience caused to the less affluent, more vulnerable members of the population. They were not the intended target of this action. We ask the public for mutual aid and solidarity. In particular, we request assistance for those requiring care and their families, the destitute residents of these neighborhoods, people who are isolated and those overwhelmed by the situation.
As already mentioned, our sympathy for the owners of the many villas, the real estate companies, the embassies, and other elite wealthy individuals in the area is limited. The rich and their self-centered, antisocial lifestyle are currently destroying the planet.
The sabotage of the gas-fired power plant is, among other things, a necessary measure against the expansion of fossil gas power plants in Germany. In our statement, we outline the connections between wealth, an imperial life-mode, and the destruction of our livelihoods, which we all must oppose.
We ask the residents of Bremer Straße to maintain confidentiality. For further verification: There were approximately 64 pipes under the cable bridge, most of which were carrying high-voltage cables. We connected these with four construction stakes to ensure a short circuit.

INTRODUCTION
Volcano Group: Cutting off the power of those in power
NEW YEAR’S GREETINGS 2026. HAVE COURAGE!
We can no longer afford the rich.
We can begin the end of the imperial life-mode.
We can stop the plundering of the earth.
In the greed for energy, the earth is being drained, sucked dry, burned, ravaged, razed, raped, and destroyed. Entire regions are rendered uninhabitable by the heat. They simply burn up. Or habitats disappear beneath the waves during floods or due to rising sea levels. Shutting down fossil fuel power plants is DIY. Have courage. We know we must stop this destruction. We know we are not alone. Don’t give up hope for a world with space for life, instead of greed for money, power, and destruction. Last night, we successfully sabotaged the gas-fired power plant in Berlin-Lichterfelde. This caused power outages in the wealthier districts of Wannsee, Zehlendorf, and Nikolassee. Power outages were not the goal of the action; the fossil fuel industry was. We apologize to the less affluent people in southwest Berlin. Our sympathy for the many villa owners in these districts is limited. We explain why in our post below. Our action for the public good is socially beneficial. We also address this issue in more detail in our letter regarding the action.
The attack on the gas-fired power plant is an act of self-defense and international solidarity with all those who protect the earth and life. The infrastructure that serves the “technological assault” and promotes the destruction of the earth can be sabotaged. Fossil fuel energy production can be stopped. Smart city metropolises, like Berlin, can be prevented. Stromnetz Berlin, a building block of this catastrophic vision of a smart city, has been hit.
For us, it goes without saying that we ruled out any risk to human life at all times.
Our detailed explanation is attached.
NEW YEAR’S GREETINGS 2026. HAVE COURAGE!
Greed for power, greed for energy, greed for destruction.
In the greed for energy, the earth is being drained, sucked dry, burned, ravaged, razed, raped, and destroyed. Entire regions are rendered uninhabitable by the heat. They simply burn up. Or habitats disappear beneath the waves during floods or due to rising sea levels. Several thousand inhabitants of Tuvalu in the Pacific are already seeking refuge in Australia.
Last year, the CO₂ concentration in the atmosphere rose to 423.9 parts carbon dioxide per million, a value that surpasses all previous records. At the same time, climate scientists agree that the massive transatlantic ocean currents will collapse sooner or later due to global warming. This collapse of the ocean currents, which has so far afforded the North a mild climate, is only one part of the catastrophe that awaits us. The extent of this devastation is simply ignored, abstracted, and discussed at global climate conferences until the scale of the destruction disappears into tables and declarations of intent.
But the hunger for energy is insatiable, devouring the earth’s crust and our lives, among other things, to feed artificial intelligence, which then spouts stereotypes and absurdities, confusing, disorienting, and/or manipulating us. Meanwhile, language, expression, and vitality are increasingly reduced, mutilated, and limited with each new “training” of the AI on previous data.
We feed our data to the so-called “clouds,” which are nothing more than gigantic, energy-guzzling data centers and server farms. These also consume our drinking water and churn out numbers that bombard our screens with useless, supposedly important spam until we’ve forgotten how to look our neighbor in the eye. Having become dependent on these small devices, we’re always ready to send an emoji and feed “Big Brother,” whose algorithm registers our deviations from the norm and answers our search queries before we’ve even finished thinking. We sit among our friends while the feeds devour us, sinking into our devices instead of having real conversations. We’re managing our own surveillance, and it’s totalized. [The tech companies are in the hands of the powerful men we give them[. We consume the colorful images that the machines filter and serve up to us, starving from loneliness and alienation in front of our screens. We are becoming ‘swiping zombies,’ knocking each other over in traffic. We are prisoners in a digital system that, increasingly, deprives us of our right to exist unless we submit to its rules and relocate our lives to social media, chat, and artificial realities. We can’t receive money, book tickets or buy anything with cash. Without access to the digital world, we are increasingly excluded, losing touch with what seems normal. We fear what will happen to us, and instead of switching off our devices and removing the power of those who track, monitor, observe, and manipulate us, we bury ourselves even deeper in our screens. We are blinding ourselves to the knowledge for the dissemination of which Edward Snowden risked his life. We are turning a deaf ear to the cries of Indigenous peoples and farmers who see the planet’s life support system burning before their very eyes. On the contrary, with every post we feed the fire that is encircling us and driving temperatures to new record highs every year. One day we will simply sit in front of glowing screens or inert devices, dying of thirst and hunger. It’s no longer hard to imagine.

Dos publicaciones del pensamiento anárquico para libre descarga: Negazine y La Tempestad, materiales para combatir la desrealización tecnológica y la guerra global
Hemos traducido al español dos interesantes y más que recomendadas publicaciones del pensamiento anárquico e insurreccional italiano, traducidas en más de un idioma y publicadas en más de un territorio, resultado de la inquietud, donde grupos de compañeros han tenido algo que decir sobre la realidad, enfatizando nuevamente la urgencia por destruir aquel entramado tecnológico configura un horizonte cada vez más desalentador para quienes se niegan al progreso y el control.
Gracias a que este material se dispuso para descarga en las páginas de la editorial Elephant Editions (elephanteditions.net), Edizioni Anarchismo (edizionianarchismo.net) e Il Roverscio (ilrovescio.info), hemos podido acceder a estos fascinantes análisis que continuarán propagándose en el universo anárquico hispanohablante… Continue reading “Dos publicaciones del pensamiento anárquico para libre descarga: Negazine y La Tempestad, materiales para combatir la desrealización tecnológica y la guerra global”

Hemos traducido el último número de la revista 325, un interesante y necesario proyecto insurreccional de contrainformación y análisis antiautoritario que merece seguir siendo difundido y discutido en más de un idioma y territorio. Alentamos su impresión, circulación y el debate que pueda generar sobre el curso actual de la realidad. La policía neerlandesa no pudo ponerle un fin definitivo en noviembre de 2020 a la revista 325, aún allanando los servidores noestate.net -que sostuvieron por años el sitio web- y de haber encarcelado por cuatro años a uno de sus colaboradores (el anarquista Toby Shone), el proyecto volvió hace algunos meses con la propuesta «De vuelta a lo básico», escribiendo una declaración de intenciones sobre la continuidad y urgencia de profundizar y revitalizar el análisis contra la maquinaria tecnológica.
Para lxs anarquistas y todxs aquellxs que se rehúsan a vivir en un mundo de relaciones algorítmicas y guerras automatizadas, de sensibilidades digitalizadas y horrores en nombre de la ciencia y el progreso, 325 reúne diversos materiales para comprender los elementos, capacidades y significados del entramado tecnológico e ideológico en sus múltiples dimensiones cognitivas y represivas (una lucha contra la singularidad de la IA, la totalización de la vigilancia, el control sobre la información, la apertura a nuevas lógicas de guerras… etc), una herramienta analítica considerada un peligro para el Estado y una plataforma que que pretende ser más información sediciosa: en sus páginas se busca comunicación, debate, redes que puedan transcender fronteras frente a un enemigo común que se perfecciona hacia el abismo del tecnomundo.
Alentamos su propagación,
saludxs compañerxs!

ANTI-POLITICAL ★ INDIVIDUAL REVOLT ★ INFORMAL ORGANISATION ★ ATTACK
London is a disneyland for the world’s dominators. The scientific and economic elites and their armies of technicians rule here unopposed – without having to fight against any idea which could challenge the foundations of this society. For this reason, they are free to use this city as a stable base to plan, launch, and profit from one-sided slaughters which subdue the lands where ‘critical resources’ are to be found, whether in Congo (cobalt), Yemen (Saudi oil fields) or Gaza and the West Bank (water and land).
But London is not spared from the relentless sacrifice of life to the economy. The bosses and their enforcers have us exactly where they want us: our time and life sucked dry in forced pointless activity called work and school, made sick by toxic materials in order to sustain addiction to useless objects. This city of exploitation and control is an endless ‘opportunity’ for anyone with money and power and an upgraded, high-tech hell for the rest of us.
The latest ‘upgrade’ here in south London is the proposal to expand the tube network of hyper-speed exploitation down the Old Kent Road to Lewisham – a dirty deal between TFL and finance capital which is already yielding luxury developments, springing up like a rash. Rent, energy, food-price hikes which sow desperation and abject dependence on charity… The oppression of passing the days in mouldy, pest-ridden, flood-prone, flammable boxes… Limitless police-state controls on the neighbourhoods… These are just a few of the attacks being deployed.
Not everyone wants to accommodate themselves, fit in, bow their heads, conform to all this. And among those who want to fight back, not everyone wants to put their trust in political parties, trade unions, pressure groups, activists, university career-critics, community leaders, official organisations, federations, large social movements.
Some make the choice of individual revolt which can spread. These ideas and acts of rebellion have nothing to say to those in power, but instead speak directly to raging hearts. Each one in struggle to unleash their own freedom, breathing life into a self-organised struggle for the freedom of all.
This is what we want to explore in the South London Anarchist Bookfair – with discussions and publications, delving into ideas which are outside of time, outside of measure and popularity, out of control. We want to share and explore our choices in the struggle against power in all its disguises, here and now.
Berlin, Germany: Claim for arson attack on Micro Resist Technology company, which specializes in the production of microchips
Shutting down the heart of the megamachine – Fire of microchip production
Last night, we set fire to fuse boxes, supply cables and a ventilation system belonging to Micro Resist Technology on the grounds of the Wuhlheide Innovation Park. While Germany is once again unrestrainedly mobilizing for military strength and war capability with a turnaround, special funds and compulsory military service, we are targeting the heart of the technological mega-machine with our sabotage and, with microchip production, are also hitting one of the most sensitive points of civil-military cooperation. This attack is intended as a contribution to the protests against National Veterans Day next Sunday – fire and flame instead of glory and honor for militarism, soldiering and fatherland!
Tiny giants at the intersection of technology and war
The web of capitalist domination is tightening ever tighter around us. Technological progress is the engine that drives the destructive mega-machine and allows it to penetrate ever further into the most intimate areas of our existence. Inanimate objects made of plastic and metal, which, equipped with sensors, microphones, lenses, microchips etc., are increasingly becoming prostheses for social interaction, replacing genuine, empathetic relationships and causing our cognitive abilities to atrophy. At the same time, we are being tracked at every turn by social media, voice assistants, artificial intelligence, “smart” devices, facial recognition and many other surveillance tools, whereby everything we do is being increasingly incorporated into the capitalist value chain. Big data becomes big money. The implementation of such technologies in our everyday lives shapes our existence and the algorithmic calculations derived from them increasingly decide and determine our future. Once we have become accustomed to them, these mechanisms have such an all-encompassing effect that it is almost inconceivable for most people today to escape their digital grasp. For many, even the thought of it triggers anxiety. What remains is an army of slaves to the machine, dependent, controlled, externally determined and not even aware of this relationship.
However, this is only one side of the technological attack. Technology can and should not only manipulate our thoughts and actions, it should also kill. Almost all relevant technologies can be traced back to military research and development in order to gain advantages on the battlefield. Not only against hostile nations, but also in the social war against the exploited, superfluous and precarious of the population. From nuclear power to the internet, from cybernetics to artificial intelligence – our everyday lives are permeated by things that have a military logic at their core. In extreme cases, this can mean that apps that playfully accompany us through the day today feed and train the same machines on the basis of which an AI-controlled drone will determine and destroy its target tomorrow. A practice that is sometimes used by the Israeli military in particular through AI programs such as “Lavender” in their unleashed campaign of destruction against the Palestinian population of Gaza and with the friendly support of their Western accomplices. What seems like an episode from a dystopian science fiction movie is the gruesome reality of technological “achievements”, which are summarized under the term “dual-use” and are inherent in most technologies. Companies such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, Siemens, Telekom and Tesla are just some of the best-known players operating at the interface between civil and military applications. Companies that produce highly specialized key technologies such as microchips/semiconductors, without which none of the modern technical devices would work, are far less well known. Smartphones, computers or cars just as little as tanks, guided missiles or war drones.

Düsseldorf, Germany: The “Angry Birds Commando” and the collapse…
[In Germany’s seventh-largest city, Düsseldorf, located in the North Rhine-Westphalia region, the “Angry Birds Commando” is regularly in the news.
In August 2024, for example, it claimed responsibility for setting fire to railway signal cables in Mettmann, adding to its previous sabotage attacks on rail traffic: one in Düsseldorf in January 2024, and five others in the same city claimed in May 2023. And since the angry birds can also be generous, last September they published a little manual entitled “Setting fire to cables for beginners”, which contains a number of homemade retardant techniques.
But let’s move on to more recent news: on Thursday night, shortly before 6 a.m. on Friday January 24, a fire broke out in a cable shaft near Eller station, a district in the south-east of Düsseldorf, interrupting rail traffic on the city’s most important freight line, as well as passenger line S1 between Düsseldorf and Solingen. This time, while the Angry Birds Commando’s communiqué no. 3 was written in rhyme, the one published the following day on de.indymedia and entitled “Switch off Deutsche Bahn – Communiqué no. 4” is in the form of an Open Letter.
Below is a translation from the German of this text, which develops its own vision of collapse, as a contribution to the ongoing debates within the revolutionary movement. To put this statement from across the Rhine into context, it’s worth rereading the brochure “Switch off! Radical interventions against the destruction of the planet”.
On Friday morning (January 24), we used tried-and-tested methods to take Düsseldorf’s most important freight line out of service for at least 12 hours. For at least 24 hours, its use was only possible with severe restrictions. In addition to the immediate economic damage, we would like to draw your attention to the following appeal. We would also like to apologize to the travelers affected, and hope that at least one or other of the commuters was able to enjoy a day off in this way.
Dear fellow citizen,
We were lied to. We’ve been told that our leaders always act in our best interests. We were told that we lived in the best of societies. That we were the envy of the world. That nowhere had it ever been better. That the answer to every question was “technical progress!” and that the answer to all the problems that ensued was “even more!”. We’re supposed to believe that we can live without whales, beetles, bats, forests and clean water, but that without the state, the economy and the police, we couldn’t survive a week. We’ve been led to believe that Elon Musk and his gang will build us a paradise on Mars and download our consciousness into the cloud, but that a life without smartphones and cars is utopian, that economic change is even impossible.
And we were told that everything would be fine if we did our jobs well, voted, and let the politicians do their jobs.
Let’s look at ourselves: sick, cowardly and lazy, we stare at our screens wondering what went wrong. Under the blows of constant propaganda, too dumb and confused to recognize genocide as such, it’s no wonder they can even sell us natural gas, fighter jets and solar power as sustainable. Cancer, diabetes, bad posture, severe depression and many others are no longer exceptional these days, even among the young. We drag ourselves into minimum-wage jobs where we’re treated like sub-humans. We’re then allowed to do things that don’t really make sense to us. But maybe things will get better with the next vacation. Or the new television. Or retirement. Or simply when the next beer has been drunk.
