Lulzsec on Wikipedia.orgHas anyone heard about these guys? They are legit hackers, not like Anonymous. They said they hacked 200,000 Brink accounts, SonyPictures.com, PBS, CIA.gov, Nintendo, Minecraft, EVE Online, WoW, Pron(dot)com, League of Legends, The Escapist, InfraGuard, The U.S. Senate, and various other small specific companies.
They posted tens of thousands of possible accounts to Facebook and Amazon.
While many of these are simply DDoS attacks, they seem to have the power to do whatever they want. They took down Sony "with a simple SQL injection."
They like Nintendo; they only hacked them to expose a gap in security to the company. They also like Sega, they went as far as
"promising to destroy Sega Hackers." They sent the British Health Care an e-mail pointing out a flaw in their security.
They don't appear to be money-motivated at all. They saw a security company using an ad-campaign, offering $10,000 to the hackers who were able to change the image of their website. This is what Lulzsec did:
They seem to do it for both political justice and for laughs. They have an "untraceable phone line" where people may call in and request websites to be taken down.
Their TwitterDiscuss.
