jjp9999 writes "Anonymous Operations posted 90,000 military email addresses and passwords to the Pirate Bay on July 11, in what they're calling 'Military Meltdown Monday.' They obtained the emails while hacking government contracting and consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton. They hinted at other information obtained during the breach, which they describe as 'maps and keys for various other treasure chests buried on the islands of government agencies, federal contractors and shady whitehat companies.' The breach comes just days after Anonymous hacked government contractor IRC Federal. Both breaches are linked to the new AntiSec movement, which LulzSec joined forces with shortly before disbanding."

"Pearl Harbor" by sarku · 2011-07-11 11:47 · Score: 2, Interesting

Didn't some top ranking official recently say something about an internet "Pearl Harbor?" You see, this isn't Anonymous, or any other basement hackers looking for lulz in all the wrong places. This is the fucking government working to tighten control over the internet.
