Anonymous Helps Turn In Hacker Who Targeted Charity
netbuzz writes "A hacker who defaced and disabled the website of a New Zealand film company known for helping poor children could find himself in legal hot water in his home country of Spain after his attack spurred a Facebook/Twitter posse that included members of Anonymous, who the hacker may have been trying to impress. 'Apparently, one of the (Anonymous) rules is you don't hack charity sites, you don't hack sites of people trying to help kids,' says the owner of the damaged site. 'This guy was trying to impress them, to try and get into their group and boasting about what he'd done — but they turned on him, they chased him.'"
What a bunch of moralfags.
They're trying to get better; that's why they started Anonymous Anonymous.
PFFFT! "Anonymous" IS the cops!
One of my friends works at a call center for an insurance group in Spain. He had a call one day from a frantic woman saying that her son who was studying in London had hurt himself playing soccer, when my friend asked for name, date of birth, etc. it turned out that the guy was 29. He then called the guy saying that he'd received a call from his mother on his behalf and needed an explanation of his injuries. It turns out instead of hurting himself playing soccer, he'd actually been doing handstands and fell over and hit his head on the dresser.
You mean loser, or at least I hope you do!
Common sense is not so common
