LulzSec Teams With Anonymous, In Operation AntiSec

c0lo writes "After a brief spat where the notorious Anonymous hacking collective sniped at Lulzsec, the 'upstart' hacking collective, for crowing about low-rent Denial of Service attacks on the CIA and 4chan websites, the two groups have apparently teamed up in operation Anti-Sec. The operation's 'top priority is to steal and leak any classified government information, including email spools and documentation. Prime targets are banks and other high-ranking establishments. If they try to censor our progress, we will obliterate the censor with cannonfire anointed with lizard blood.' We can only predict that the following will be unpredictable: store canned food and flash batteries, change your eBanking password daily."

    Actually, given the horribly insecure things that banks do, this might not be such a bad thing. EX: when I refinanced my mortgage last, I found it was SOP to shuffle the paperwork around via plain old ass-hanging-out-for-all-to-see email.

    And the password security questions can't be user-defined, and are things I know plenty of people can answer about me, and I could answer every option for many people I know.

    Two different banks I know have flash installed on their employees computers.

    Lulz and Anon won't have trouble hacking the banks... They'd have to put effort into not failing to hack them.

    I'll second that.

    I appreciate the subtlety of BitCoin's distributed implementation. I'm only curious and don't buy or trade them.

    The negative hate for them here feels more like a false flag operation than genuine posts?

    To all the haters.... how did bitcoins hurt you so much that you know hate them?
