Gimme a fuckin' break. What the hell is up with these people? Seems like all they are trying to do is look like they're superior and toy around with companies. "Hey look we can hack your shit and you can't do anything about it, LOL."
I mean, look at the name. "LULZ SECURITY." LULZ? As we all know that's another form of lol. So they're trying to be funny? Seriously, fuck this shit.

And as we all know, everybody has to disagree with me, some some asshole is gonna come in here and defend the hackers.

Seems like someone finally figured out what "for the lulz" means

If one were conspiracy-minded, he might see this as a government plot to make our precious Internet freedoms look bad. :cool:

As far as I know in these cases listed, no information was compromised.

It was just a brute force ddos attack, with the help of the compromised computers of a thousand porn-browsing computer-illiterate people to bring the servers down.

I'm less worried about hackers and more worried about the people who lapse on their own computer security.

it's a conspiracy to prepare for the privatization of the internet.

Evil people making me wait 40+ minutes to log in... :(

This sucks. It went from a pseudo-noble idea of attacking the "evil big man" down to turning back on its own community. I mean Minecraft? Seriously? One of the most glimmering examples of "independent dev" ?

Yup, clearly this is far more "for the lulz" than it started as off with sony. Good chance it's not even the same people anymore.
