LulzSec Calls It Quits

[Roliath]

Describes the impression theyve been giving lately. All the attacks seem pointless like attacking Nintendo and Sega. Seems more like these goons are just attacking whoever they can find a vulnerability in.

They didn't attack Sega

 

[86 5.0L]

Imagine what some higher end hackers could do.

not draw any attention for one...

 

[WorldExclusive]

When the going gets tough..the tough....quit?

I don't really follow the LulzSec news...what was their whole point?

These types of people are computer nerds, the threat of jail scares them to the core.
They planned to quit well before they started. Once someone got close, shut down.

 

[DeathCloud]

Brilliant move.

But the "Hack The Planet" defense crew here on the [H] said these guys were fearless freedom fighters standing up for our rights... are you saying they were wrong?

 

[Xee]

Another group outed them as script kiddies finding weak points in ANY website available. They also outed their names, addresses and other various stuff.

Kinda ironic. I read some leaks logs of chats that The Guardian got their hands on where "Sabu" is screaming at the rest of the group not to be dumbshits and be more cautious about what they do. Go figure he was right and they all got outed while he is still undiscovered. Only a matter of time though.

 

[dirksquarejaw]

Just dumb kids.it wasn't a matter of if they get caught it was a matter of when.What did they expect posting crap on twitter?
The transgender thing does go a bit over the top for me though,really?

 

[fattypants]

The ones who "hacked" are starting to realize that sharing a cell with Bubba for 3-5 years isn't a good future?

I'll never understand why the first thing some people think of when imagining young boys going to prison is forced gay sex.

 

[Sparky]

The transgender adds so much more to the story I can see it becoming a straight to DVD movie.

his information is right there at the end of the pastebin link you quoted

Because it happens. What do you think happens, guards hand out Xboxen and cases of Red Bull to entertain the youngsters, all while looking after their safety?

 

[mope54]

yes, it happens not but nearly as much as people imagine.

the main reason it's repeated is similar to any other meme or children's story: it's scary to think of it happening so repeating the fearful event is a social cue to indicate how bad it is to go to prison and the extra harsh punishment people will endure if you're unlucky enough to find yourself there.

 

[pxc]

yes, it happens not but nearly as much as people imagine.

It happens more than I imagined back in school when I read studies about its prevalence. Sexual assault in prison happens at around a 10% rate of the prison population, and that's considered a low estimate. That figure doesn't include other sources like coercion and other "voluntary" protective arrangements. Someone weak and without the ability to defend himself isn't going to have an easy time in prison.

It depends on where you get sent to. a Minimum security workcamp, which where these turds will likely go, I don't see it happening.

You go do hard time, a lot of the people in there, well, they are not real nice. They don't look at as "gay sex" what happens in prison, stays in prison...

A Friend of mine went away for a while for manslaughter. about the first thing that happened, couple guys basicly told him to bend over or get the crap kicked out him. he's a fairly tough guy, he fought, and took some lumps. after it was over, he asked them why they tried it. the reply? "we wanted to see if you were going to be a bitch" yeah, I don't see a tranny college kid putting up that much of a fight.

 

[Synful Serenity]

I lol'ed at GORANKAR's post above because as I read it, for some reason it came across as a Law and Order voiceover in my head:

"In the US penal system, having a penis, regardless of how small, means you go to a male prison. The ones with boob jobs are typically segregated when possible. The rest of the wannabe women get little to no special treatment. These are their stories." DUN DUN!

And the good guys win as the bad guys loose sleep at night knowing people know who they are. I call that lulz.

.

Workcamp, not prison. I've worked with inmates from both, the Min security guys are about what you would expect, "man, I swear, that dope wasn't mine!"

the workcamp guys? well, one of them had been on Americas most wanted, for EPA violations, of all things. they had some semi famous types in there too, and a couple whos names you would recognize. In general the Workcamps are old fat white guys that would have had to have Viagra to even threaten a new inmate....

Somehow I was expecting more from you, given that your personal messiahs have just been doxed and essentially chased underground by their fellow hackers.

Isn't it amazing how loyalty to "the cause" dries up when people start getting busted?

 

[fattypants]

The desire to be free of unnecessary government and corporate interference in the lives and rights of common people is not a "cause"; it's common sense.

There is (and always will be) an element of people who beg for fascism. Uneducated and spineless, they cheer the government on and call for the heads of anyone who disrupts their order. They faithfully attack anyone who does not toe that line, calling people who are thinking objectively "children", or "hippies", or even "terrorists". They dutifully obey whatever laws are in place, regardless of whether or not the laws make sense or are good for society as a whole.

The United States was started with the intent of decentralizing power and giving it to more local entities. It seems that line of thinking has rotted away somewhat as our education system continues its downward spiral.

The false sense of comfort that the unwitting fascists derive from their shackles is the kind of thing that enables the Mussolinis and the Hitlers of recent history to rise. People are far better off trusting in their peers and their society than a tiny, elite conglomerate of power.

Before, all this unnecessary hacking was pissing me off. Now, I like it, given that the victimizer has become the victim.

Clowns got what they deserved.

You have mistaken my affinities for the concepts of individualism and personal liberty as loyalty to a specific group or ideology. That is fallacious.

Lulzsec was formed by a bunch of people who were disgruntled by the laughable state of copyright law, in which we strip from people rights we consider unalienable (liberty and the pursuit of happiness) and exchange them for rights that are purely artificial (copyright).

The one facet of their operation that I admired was their plucky, mirthful willingness to challenge such a ludicrous state of law. I didn't agree with everything they did, but the overall concept aligned with a truth I hold to be self-evident.

You wasted all those fancy words calling everyone that disagrees with on this "Stupid Nazis"?

 

[fattypants]

Sure. I'd say that jail and a lifetime of lawsuits and debt are pretty big dampers on liberty and pursuit of happiness.

Interesting, how you still want to insist that at its core, these crooks and anarchists, were at heart doing this because of the supposed injustice of copyright law.

Does a Psychopath have a civil rights claim if we prevent him from eating young boys for lunch? your arguments are specious.

tl;dr - idiot noobs get exposed by competent hacker

Also, the whole transgender correlation is just bizarre

im not sure what to make of it. what was their aim? they had gender identity problems, but how did hacking sony and others make them feel good about themselves?

Sooo...not liking a bunch of stupid script kiddies = begging for facism. Got it. Now that they've been caught, will they be handing out free brown shirts at the local beer hall?

 

[Lycidas]

I'll just leave this here.

Their mom's probably kicked them out of the basement and made them get jobs down at the local McDonalds.

The ones who "hacked" are starting to realize that sharing a cell with Bubba for 3-5 years isn't a good future?

The majority of them are transgender anyway it seems. Do they go with the female inmates or the male inmates?

the good looking ones go with the male inmates....

LOL at everyone cheering on some transgendered kids running scripts for the lulz, way to go.

Hahaha. Trannys. They are going to have FUN in prison!

But the "Hack The Planet" defense crew here on the [H] said these guys were fearless freedom fighters standing up for our rights... are you saying they were wrong?

Lol glad to see the Sony hater and lulzsec lover get owned.

 

[Silus]

Yeah right "calls it quits"...

Their personal info is supposedly exposed to the public and all of a sudden they "call it quits". Doing it to others was so much fun wasn't it ? But when it happens to you, that's a whole different story isn't it ?

I hate double standards...

If I were talking about cats and mentioned that they had a trait of loyalty, that doesn't mean that all things that are loyal are dogs. But somehow I think you missed that point intentionally.

No, they didn't. They've never cared since they are from 4chan and have been picking targets that are easy to attack. Scientology got in front of the news because of Tom Cruise's stupid video. Sony got targeted because these dipshits supposedly argued on copyright laws but after the first hack, it was easy to make a correlation between all of Sony's servers worldwide and they were easy to exploit. Then came out the release of people's personal information out there on the web by these idiots which are now going to be abused by identify fraud's out there. When they started taking requests for targets, how does this work with your personal code?

If anything it went down like this
IRC Room #idiots
Dumbass #1: ARGH I'M SO PISSED MY PS3 WON'T BOOT INTO LINUX. I HATE SONY NOW
Dumbass #1: Anyone know SQL injections? Let's hack sony!
Dumbass #2: Sure, I know SQL injections. Let's do it.
Dumbass #2: Okay let's form a group called Lulzsec and use a bunch of memes since they worked well with Project Chanology.

Any talks about "ideals" were to stroke your ego and get you on board with this.
