I've yet to have a hacker break into my information.Funny how this works when I'm not a hacker myself.
Also let's review your comments:I've carefully marked in bold the portions you could review.I also never said they themselves took the PS3 down.To my knowledge there were no announced attacks on the PS3 by Lulzsec.There were such from Anons because they wanted to expose Sony for the meanspiritted corporation they are but stopped because "it was harming the users".Also these kids aren't Neo,I'm well aware of that.For all I know they could be royal douches.But anyone who fights against censorship,exposing bad internet security that people pay for and the basic rights we as internet consumers should have is ok in my book.
You are trying to make me look like an idiot.And failing because you don't even read what I say.You just skim and foam a bit before interpreting it yourself - however it pleases you.
I'll actually give you that one seeing how I was meaning the Playstation network. Hacking into the PS3 seems to be much easier. I have read everything that you said. I just didn't remember everything that I said. Luckily for me, that wasn't the main issue here.
And just because it hasn't happened to you, doesn't mean that it won't happen to you. I've never had anyone hack into my accounts, that doesn't mean I assume it's not a bad thing. It's someone trying to steal your personal information. Why the fuck would I idolize these idiots?
Let's also look into how they've "exposed bad internet security". They leaked thousands of people's credit card information on the web, for people to do whatever with. I don't know about you, but I did not see one thing on the news about the PS3 being down, let alone credit cards being leaked. The only way someone would have found out about this is if they were on a well informed website like this.
The message left by Sony on the PS3 homepage did not say anything about the Credit cards being leaked. That's how your idols "expose the Evil corporations". By attacking the Customers.
Also, look through their twitter feed. They mention multiple times how they are "preparing a surprise for Sony".

There's no doubt that they've done good, but it's all been through accident. The "censorship" they are fighting is only going to end up putting stricter enforcement on the internet, something the people don't want to happen.
Make no mistake, they aren't fighting for anyone's rights. They are doing this because they found out how to do a Ddos attack. They're doing this because they can. They even said so themselves.
Yet you're making them out to be some kind of internet vigilantes.
