LulzSec Announces That It Is Done

Posted by timothy on from the oh-they-all-say-that dept.

MaxBooger writes "LulzSec, the notorious hacker group that's been on a rampage, just announced that it's disbanding. This follows 50 days' chaos during which time it took down several websites (including CIA.gov at one point), exposed passwords, exposed documents of the Arizona penal system, and at one point threatened to hit Too Big To Fail banks. Obviously, it's possible that the group will not abide by its promise to quit. Nobody knows."

    Sounds like they've pissed enough people off that they're starting to get ID'ed and arrested

    Or their asses kicked.
