LulzSec guys arrested

Post by Ruldra »

The guys responsible for that PSN outage and many other hacks were finally caught. They arrested the leader, who in turn gave away the other members to save himself.

All for the lulz, eh?

“They caught him and he was secretly arrested and now works for the FBI,”
So the guy went from unemployed into working for the FBI? Good for him I guess.

Astounding shock betrayal :lol: I wonder if they put jumper cables on his balls, or raped him with a big rubber dildo? Or maybe put his head in a vise like Joe Pesci in Casino?

Yup.

Its pretty sad news. I hope it doesn't have a chilling effect on future attacks on our benevolent masters of loving grace, but I'm afraid it will.

Well lulzsec were far more about being assholes then doing good so this news kind of makes me happy. Glad to see there's still no honour out there.

Im glad all this hacking fad has died down. I almost blame the media for giving these tossers so much coverage as I do the hackers. I know hackers will always be doing their thing, but many of these guys were doing it for the press attention.

Just let me get my hands on one of the assholes that's made viruses which have so far tanked every computer I've ever owned with a net connection (save this one, so far). Justifiable homicide right there.

This is just going to lead to another revenge DDoS campaign and more arrests. They're shooting themselves not only in the foot but in the head.

I'm sure it went something like this:

FBI - "We'll go easy if you tell us the other members."
LulzSec guy - "I don't care about that, I'll turn them in for the lulz."

How do we truly know that one guy turned the others in? Maybe the FBI already had the information on the others, but placed the blame squarely on the ringleader to discredit their hacking activities. I mean, this is the same "news organisation" that reported Pat Tillman died honourably in combat against muslim "terrorists" in Afghanistan. How easy would it be to try and discredit, say, Julian Assange over some bogus charges in order to detract from his hacking activities? From fix news, of all places, owned by Ruppert Murdoch, who is also embroiled in many-a-hacking scandals of his own 8)
