Title: LulzSec busted
Post by: LongBlade on March 06, 2012, 12:40:11 PM
One of the founders turned informant and the Feds have broken them up. Well done!

Quote"Sabu could be making millions of bucks heading the IT security department of a major company," a law enforcement official said. "But look at him, he's impoverished, living off public assistance and was forced between turning on his friends and spending a lifetime in jail.

Living off public assistance eh? Someone should hack his account and take the money.

Not only the founders but the top dog.

"The very fact that Sabu became the 'celebrity' he was, illustrates the real difference between Lulzsec and Anonymous.

"I think the hackers we really need to worry about are those that trusted no-one and sought no glory in the first place."

a lesson in there i thinks. Darwinism at its best

thankfully

"Anonymous is a very different organisation to Lulzsec and other more closely linked groups - anyone can and does act in the name of Anonymous and their activities do not require individual hacker publicity or disclosure of personally identifiable details," he said.

I'm pretty sure asset seizure is a part of this sort of thing.
