With the rise of extortion incidents online, there's no doubt in my mind that we've got lots of things that relate here. You rarely ever find one crime being done independantly of another. I mean how do you suppose that the terrorists get their funding? Large sums of money pass to them every year as a result of credit card fraud, identity theft, drugs, and other similar crimes. (Now thats by no means to say that all such stuff is associated with terrorism -- there is afterall old fashioned organized crime -- but it's hard to deny that there is indeed a link.)
