Hackers Expose 26,000 Sex Website Passwords
An anonymous reader writes "Passwords and email addresses of almost 26,000 members of adult website Pron.com have been released on the internet by the notorious hacking group LulzSec. To add to the victims' humiliation, LulzSec called on its followers to try the email/password combinations against Facebook, and tell friends and family of the users that they were subscribers to a pornographic website. In addition LulzSec released passwords belonging to the administrators of dozens of other adult websites, and highlighted military and government email addresses that had signed up for the xxx-rated services."
i only read it for the articles.
Where can I find the passwords?
Dropbox drops it like it's hot.
Who signs up with a government issued email or even real info to a sex site? Who even pays for that? Amazing. So much free stuff to watch who would bother?
so we can see some pron for free...
You're new to this whole 'internet' thing aren't you?
On one hand, I couldn't agree more with one of the posters who said something along the lines the how people make a bog deal out of sex between consenting adults, including the watching of it. The Victorian-esque morality that most aspects of sex are something that people should be ashamed of, including porn, is not something I can relate to.
That said, I have to wonder about the kind of people who would be paying for porn. Even if you are particularly desperate, there's so much free porn on the Internet that it's almost pointless to pay for porn. Plus, if you're that desperate, just how hard is it to pick girls up at a bar (or if you're a geek Don Juan, Craigslist)? Paying for sex in any shape or form has to be one of the silliest things, given how easy it is to find women who are more than willing if you just looked around.
The reason why you never hear about porn sites getting cracked is because it is fucking easy. Most porn sites are vulnerable as hell and almost anyone with some technical proficiency can exploit them. They are run by low budget companies who often just cant afford to secure their sites. Cracking porn sites are for pathetic script kiddies with little to no skill what so ever. Also what's up with trying to shame owners of porn site memberships? Fucking puritans.
Football Odds
I think it'd be nice to relate this to the latest "scandal" in the US:

"LulzSec called on its followers to try the email/password combinations against Facebook, and tell friends and family of the users that they were subscribers to a pornographic website"
I cant believe those hackers are so influenced by american puritanism...
We all like sex. Its the way nature designed us to be able to spread.
My friends dont care if i'm subscribed to a porn site... well i guess bc im not in the US.
After they exposed loads of username/password combinations off some Sony service, I thought to myself; who are they actually hurting? It seemed to me they just made it loads easier for criminals without the skills to do this sort of thing themselves.
Yes, it is possible that some more sinister hackers already had this data without telling anyone, just secretly exploiting them, but actually publishing the combinations makes it many times more likely that someone will exploit your personal data.
I consider this hacking group no more than simple vandals and criminals at this stage. There is no "honour" in it, and exposing porn clients are extremely likely to be hypocritical. I don't believe for a second that all members of this hacker group has a "clean conscience" about porn.
People watch porn... so what?
Depends. Are they legislators who are campaigning against obscenity on the Internet?
Do we live in the Dark Ages and masturbation is a sin?
A lot of elected representatives in the US would like us to...
I am TheRaven on Soylent News
What are you on about? This could help people who like to masturbate. I'm told that a significant part of the population engages in that activity.

Now they've gone too far.
Help! I'm a slashdot refugee.
Why are they going after everything and anything?
Maybe they should blow up some unmarked yellow vans to further obscure whatever their "message" is.
Why are they going after everything and anything?
For the lulz, obviously.

Anybody owning up to this one?

What is the purpose of the threat to tell peoples families about the porn they look at?
This is looking like a blackmail mechanism. Similar to "we got ur noods, don't worry we won't show mom and dad"
Do we live in the Dark Ages and masturbation is a sin?

It's Americas biggest version of "don't ask, don't tell". A classic is the Utah store owner who proved they were watching tons of PPV porn at the local hotel to get past the Miller test. Politicians simply play the game to win votes, I hardly think they're better than the rest of us. Most of the world - and even the US - have gotten over the whole "sin" to spill the seed, but you still don't talk about it. That's the way it's been from the very beginning, where's little Suzy? Oh, she's furiously frigging her clit. A lot of them go "LALALALALALA", don't want to see it, hear about it, think about it, go to your room and this is on DADT basis. Never figured out why it was such a big deal, if I didn't I'd have such a serious case of blue balls I'd sleep with almost anything - which would be grounds for concern.
Live today, because you never know what tomorrow brings
They are telling people to go and destroy peoples lives.
Telling them to log into their Facebook accounts and tell their families about their porn habit?
So if a guy or girl is secretly going to gay porn sites, and his or her parents are religious, what kind of damage could that do?
They must have a phemonenal amount of personal info on people based on web search alone, never mind everything else they do.
Some Google engineers must have the ability (if not necessarily permission) to track the porn surfing habits of the vast majority of the world's internet surfers. Think how many powerful people that they could blackmail with this information.
Don't fuck with Google ...
If Anon hacked Google they'd have the dirt to blackmail the entire internet. They'd know who was researching how to kill their husband. They'd know who thinks what and who watches what porn.
This is why your Google password should be at least 100 characters long, random, and impossible to remember.

If it weren't for the stigma surrounding porn this would just be another hacked website. I still don't understand societies taboos about sexually related things. Especially when we are so accepting of of violence and death. The number of crime scene centric shows on public TV is staggering. The number of sex centric shows? Almost non-existent. People are perfectly fine looking a images of death and dismemberment, but put naked people on TV and it's a travesty. Personally I think the world would better off if people spent more time watching pornography than watching people get killed. Remember, you can have safe sex, you cannot have safe war!
... that porn sites everywhere get Slashdotted?
Do we live in the Dark Ages...?/p>
Uhm, yes. We could make a very good argument that we're in or entering another dark age. Education is on the wane while the disparity between wealthy and poor rapidly accelerates toward complete serfdom. The middle class is fast disappearing. Science is riddled with political agenda and strangled by the patent and copyright system, while many "peer reviewed" studies are really just simple corporate propaganda. The public domain (water, minerals, parks, roads, etc.) is being sold off to wealthy private and corporate interests. Draconian laws proliferate, making almost everything a serf might do a potential offense. (Steal a loaf of bread and you may well serve hard time, but wipe out someone's retirement, or foreclose on a home without a mortgage and you'll probably laugh about it on the golf course.) The haunting specter of "terrorism", real or imagined, has allowed many hard won personal rights to be effectively repealed, while a virtual witch hunt is in process. Virtually anyone is subject to a home invasion by authorities at any time without notice or significant recourse. The courts are stacked with political cronies, and few can afford a decent lawyer anyway. Fraud is rampant, yet rarely punished at the highest (most significant) levels. Government regulatory agencies are all captured and worse than ineffective. Naked resource wars are initiated unilaterally, as oil and other important resources dwindle. Unemployment and homelessness are rapidly rising, with no relief or government fix in the works. Retirement programs are in the sights for drastic cuts, as the moneyed interests refuse to cut bloated military budgets. The media is not obligated to tell the truth, so the masses are less informed then if they consumed no news. Resistance groups interested in not being in a dark age are infiltrated and rendered impotent in various other ways. The international moneyed powers are rapidly changing the governance of the world into something more hideous than anything the world has ever seen, while all eyes are on the insignificant spectacle of something else.
Looks kinda dark to me!
Everything and its opposite is true. Get used to it.
...But seriously...

Disposable email
Really. Just use Google Video search, with SafeSearch turned off. Porn has gone ad-supported, like all other forms of content.
(If only the music industry would figure that out.)
Yep, just because some hacktivist group posts a list of emails and passwords, supposedly taken from a pron website, all the text in it *must* be 100% true.
;)
Because nobody would ever put in a fake email address when subscribing to a porn site, even if we give lulzsecurity the benefit of the doubt and the list is 100% authentic.
I'd personally be more concerned that actually going to lulzsecurity's website to fetch the list would have them place an exploit to a vulnerability in my browser on that page.
