Operation Reconnect is the 3rd, and from my perspective, the most important mission of the internet activist group Anonymous. Anonymous members will be gathering around the globe Saturday, April 12 to protest the Church of Scientology and its practice of "disconnection".


Disconnection is a practice in Scientology, in which a Scientologist severs all ties between themselves and friends, colleagues, or family members that are deemed to be antagonistic towards Scientology. The practice of disconnection is a form of religious shunning.

Disconnection has sometimes ended marriages and separated children from their parents

There are families RIGHT NOW, who are unable to communicate with loved ones simply because of this formal and destructive written policy from the Church of Scientology. Children are missing parents, parents missing children, husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, friends — all profoundly affected because of a draconian measure put forth by an organization which seeks to control all aspects of its members.

Glosslip Radio will be discussing this on Sunday, April 13 during our regular 10:00 pmEST timeslot and have well-known ex-Scientologists who will be calling in to tell us how the policy is enforced and the damage it causes. More on that coming up.
