Authorities Closing On LulzSec

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the lul-me-to-sleep dept.

mask.of.sanity writes "The noose is tightening on hacker group LulzSec, according to a coordinated group of like-minded users, some from LulzSec-Exposed that claim to have uncovered the identity of LulzSec members and supplied them to the FBI. An arrest Monday of a UK teenager was rumoured to be former hacker scene member Ryan Clearly, and the trackers, which includes a former FBI agent, say this arrest is the first of many. They refused to disclose the identities of LulzSec chief, saying it would cause the members to burn the evidence of attacks and scatter."

    Do it, do it now, they are on to you. No really, it's not just what they want you to think, they really mean it, your time is up, go to ground and never resurface again. Someone within your own organisation has outed you to the Feds, you can't trust any of them, scatter and break all contact with all your members, as any one of them could be the informant. They will get you if you remain organised.

      I always wondered what the tin foil hat says.

    There's a group of Japanese hackers who've been able to shut down businesses, infect users with rootkits and remotely remove functionality from consumer electronics.

    They call themselves SONY or something...

    And their nonsense with hacking into porn sites and trying to publicly shame people who visit them made me want to strangle them with my own hands.

    Anyone who pays for porn on the internet should be shamed. Seriously.

    It's days like these I think elementary logic classes should be manditory.

    Elementary spelling classes, too.
