Ehm, any reason for this? Did Eidos do anything to deserve this? were they pissed at the delayal of Deus Ex? What is the reason for this hate?

The reason lies in my previous post.
I can quote it here.

Because it's the truth.

They CAN be stolen, it doesn't mean they WERE stolen.
I can CLAIM that I'm a demi-god.

Can somebody tell me why they went after Edios? What the fuck did they do to piss off Anon, at least the dick part that seems to want to hold the world hostage until they get their way.
The Plunk said:
Anonymous didn't do this, Chippy1337 did. You can't be anonymous if you have a name.

I would like to know what this douche-bag's motivation was though.

As I stated above I think it was some 4chan script kiddies responsible for this and not actually Anon. As for the reasoning? 4chan doesn't do anything unless its "for the lulz". Thats all the reason they ever need.

Holy crap. Regardless of whether or not this is Anonynous, this is could turn very ugly. I think someone should declare the internet a no-go zone for a few days. Lord knows what this place'll look like in a few weeks time.

According to the chat log, they were trying to 'hit the headlines'. Whatever their main reasons may be behind it will remain a mystery but they sounded like pure stoners junkies just by the way words were misspelled in their sentences and their use of vulgar language.

You know, I thought this whole 'splintering' business was hilarious, but now I'm a little troubled. You might say AnonOps was douchey, but they never were this random...

I'm really pissed that they gave the PC version to some other studio in Europe. They're not taking this seriously.
It was literally the secondcoming of Jesus Christ, as foretold by his first name, JC. JC, a.k.a. Jesus Christ, is what they first wanted him to be when they started the game. I laughed so hard when I learned that.

Umm. Why does this seem to me like a society of drows? Not the thing with women in charge and whatnot, but the whole "work together for one thing, then backstab each other" thing.

A few days ago there was a news about "Disgruntled Anonymous Faction Maliciously Attacks Anonymous" and most replies were like muhaha that's so funny how they fight each other or on the lines of that and I paranoid like I am said and I quote

"If this group really consists of the best hackers in the world, then this shit could get really bad really fast and not for them but for us the everyman(and everywoman)because even I with my limited knowledge abot hacking and the hacking community can think of several ways how this could bite us from our virtual asses." So yes, it's hilarious how those hackers fuck us up.

By that logic, you're a stoner for your repetitive words. That's bad typing right there! (Mostly joking, don't report me :p)

I don't know what your logic is behind that. I don't exactly condone pot smoking, but I do know a few stoners, and trust me- they know how to spell. A few are actually very intelligent. The bad spelling has nothing to do with being a stoner. Nor does the vulgar language. Where did you get those ideas?

... God, I can't believe I'm defending stoners -_-'

Point is, you may be right or wrong about them being stoners, but that's neither here nor there. Whatever they are, they're most likely doing it for attention though, as you said. To "hit the headlines."

I don't get how hacking Eidos and stealing their users' information is getting back at a splinter group of Anon.
That's like if I went out and robbed a bank to get back at a girl for breaking up with me. Makes no sense.

Seriously guys, go fuck yourselves. Hackers can be so full of shit. They've gone from supposed Robin Hoods to um... giant douchebags who steal things from unrelated private people for no reason.

So basically they are just petty criminals now.

Wonder how many more times I'll have to post this.

You DO NOT openly claim credit for crimes even if you are using a pseudonym. Your adding another layer to your dox. Lets say you use that name again elsewhere and someone manages to link that name to you; well guess what? That name is linked to this hack and the party van comes a knockin'.

Fuck off.

I don't care if it's Anon anymore, I wish every hacker on the planet would just fall over and die.
Yeah, that's a good plan. Never mind that not all hackers go around breaking into game sites or networks to steal personal data. Some of them do good things, like, say, working for the FBI or another law enforcement agency to try and catch the hackers who use their skills to do illegal things like stealing personal info!

Saying all hackers should die because of some people doing bad things with hacking is like saying all cops should die because of a few dirty cops, or that all priests should die because some of them abused children.

The phrase "war is a drug" comes to mind...
if you gave these tools what they wanted they still wouldn't stop because they do it for kicks. and they don't care who they endanger.
putting someone's CV and email on a file sharing website is not on.

I got told today that someone hacked the Anonymous servers a couple of days ago.

Oh the irony.

Well anyone can now hack anything and hide behind the "anonymous" name, so I'm quite doubtful that this was their bidding. But no matter who did this deserves to have FBI/CIA on their asses right away.
