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."

Re:Impact on bitcoins?

[betterunixthanunix]

No, the "haters" are people who understand that currencies which cannot be used to legally settle debts and whose design inevitably leads to a deflationary trend should be avoided. Bitcoin is not even a fiat currency, since it was not created by a government (see: definition of fiat currency).

It's OK though, you can continue to assume that we live in a world where everyone either supports Bitcoin or thinks we should run back to the gold standard.
