Lulzsec can....

[LunaSocks]

Alright, so Lulzsec took down The Escapist and Minecraft servers (among others) today. Honestly, I was totally fine with Lulzsec before this, but now, they get all of my hate. Lulzsec can go die in a hole of glass shards for all I care.

So I want to know what your thought on Lulzsec is at this point. What do you really wish would happen to Lulzsec?

 

[Luthir Fontaine]

Well your goin to get locked mine was

 

[Mr. Grey]

At this point, is it really smart to continue poking the bear?

Be grateful that all they did was a DDoS.

 

[Cracker3011]

Well, since they probably have my data already...

To be honest, I hated them from the get-go. Okay, with Sony you could understand it, but now they're just being dicks. They're getting too cocky, making too many enemies way too fast.

Bull shit they can go to hell. The last thing im goin to do is not make fun of those bastards cowards

 

[Frankster]

So you were cool with lulsec until this? -1 respect from me

Always been anti lulsec, particularly when sony was getting uber hacked at an insensitive time when it has serious real world repercussions.

This attack I don't care about so much, no one got affected beyond the site being down for a few hours and has the AWESOME side effect of getting some previously pro lulsec peeps rethinking what their attitude.

 

[Trasken]

Bunch of power hungry nobodies trying to give their sad existence some passing meaning

 

[urluckyidunbeatu]

Lulzsec can really all be caught for all I care, I'd go for something more radical like "die in a hole" but I want to be realistic, I want them all to be imprisoned and soon, they're already tiresome, even more after hitting the Escapist.

Pray tell how do you understand attacking Sony?

If they'd really wanted to cause a fuss by bringing down the Escapist they should have done it tomorrow, one minute before ZP goes up.

Mind you the site normally overloads at that time anyway, so maybe they figured noone would have noticed...

 

[Hungry Donner]

The Escapist went down right after it let me know about a new PM. Arg!

Ha!

 

[Katana314]

It's now become less about hurting the right people, and more about drilling good security practice into the minds of network administrators.

Now that they have everyone's attention, they could do some fucking good for once, and write an article of "20 do's and don'ts as an IT administrator (that will prevent you from getting hacked by us)".

 

[Solo-Wing]

I liked them. Now they can rot.
Only way I will forgive them is if they attack 4Chan or Facebook.
What? I don't like 4chan for obvious reasons, and if they killed facebook for a few hours maybe productivity in the world will increase for a bit. We all know it can be a huge distraction.

HA!
And yeah. Escapist really needs to upgrade server speed and capacity.

 

[TheTim]

wonder why these guys like ruining things for other people so much.

 

[Defense]

They DDoS'd a site. TTLY 1337 HAX0RZ R1TE?

I want to say they're adults because they actually know how to DDoS, but their use of outdated memes and the fact that they think they're skilled because of this makes me think otherwise.

 

[linkvegeta]

at first it was great an now they showed they are immature dumb asses. All they are really doing is getting attention. its like a school bully.

Well, I didn't exactly mean understand, but okay. Back then, plenty of people were against Sony for that whole lawsuit thing (which, btw, I was on Sony's side for, they made the bloody thing after all), so you can sort of see why the hacks from both Anonymous and Lulzsec happened. But, yeah, they DID go way overboard. And now, I think they're just crippling servers and stealing data just to see if they can. Its gonna bite them in the arse eventually.

This.

News flash, provoking a hacker group with a track record of hacking things and stealing data IS NOT THE SMARTEST FUCKING THING TO DO.
