Hacker Group Promises Doom for Sony

[BabySinclair]

Pissing off the client gets the entire user network to scream for blood of hackers, never a good move. Hell AnonOps (when it existed) said it was a poor move.

Why do I have a feeling the FBI, who is monitoring it all, is just scooping up IPs at this point, they may as well be trying to get into the FBI networks at this point and since they employ better hackers...

I guess one thing we know, English isn't their first language.

That's Ingreish, they are speaking.

"All Your Base Are Belong To LULZSEC."

that is a meme...
just like how nyun cat is a meme
just like 'umadbro faic man' is a meme.

it all rings of unorginiality to me.

I think that it's time that Sony customers united and made a statement of there own. We need to pull together and denounce this...to let people know that we are the ones that will be hurt by this.

It's our information and our pastimes that are going to be harmed. This isn't an attack on Sony the corporation, no this is a direct attack on we the gamers.

Ugh this just makes me so mad!

Any idea how we can do that?

And here I thought they were going to do a port. Shucks.

Don't do anything that delays my playing infamous for free there, boys.

I dunno. >_< I almost with Sony could give us some kind of form, or petition, and public bulletin board, to make statements of utmost disapproval.

It just sucks feeling so helpless...

Well, since I don't own any Sony products, go ahead.

Pretty much my feelings on the matter. Although I do know plenty of people who own Sony products, and I certainly don't wish them to be inconvinienced. Either way, Sony will at least be somewhat prepared for it, so we'll see how it goes.

So what I'm seeing here is, Annon had a divide in ideals over whether to continue the assaults on the Sony web services. The current Annon decided the attacks had to stop, and even brought down one of their own boards recently, and those who wish to continue have formed this second Hacker group- Lulzsec?

That sounds about right.
I feel like I should be recording this. FOR HISTORY!

That's the Twitter of someone who has been...bugging, LulzSec, I guess? Anyway, LulzSec just put up his name, birthdate, phone number, and address.

That's kind of...annoying.

LulzSec is pretty against the idea that they're Anonymous.

I sense an internet civil war on the horizon. This is going to be really interesting.

Maybe if they stopped picking targets that affected innocent consumers, then I wouldn't feel like they were betraying their support base. Most people who own a PS3 are pretty hardcore gamers or techies and would usually be receptive to their views. Doing this over and over doesn't seem to be productive, rational, or in anyone's best interest.

Maybe they should stop wasting their time and go after real criminals.

Now this is getting scary.

 

[kajinking]

... I still don't even know why. Where's their motivation?

I think these guys are just doing it to be famous. If any actual damage was their real goal shouting out on twitter and alerting Sony would not be step one. I really don't think most of these Sony hackers have any real politcal goal and really wish everyone would stop thinking they did.

 

[Simon Pettersson]

Hacker activism is beginning to get on my nerve right now >.<

 

[Alucard788]

blah blah me talking...

Any idea how we can do that?

Nerdrage and post in caps?

LOL If only it were that easy really. It's just scary now. How can these people claim to be on our side if we are the ones under threat? It makes no sense.

Exactly, and if Annon were to get behind the Sony attacks, fair to say LulzSec might have gotten behind them instead of creating a power divive, right?
At least that's how things seem to look. From what I've seen Annon has no (collective) intention to keep the Sony attack on their agenda.

Thus is the problem with an organisation consisting of independant cells. If one disagrees, you have two different organisations! Think of it as the 'Fight Club Paradox'.

Getting me some popcorn.

It's stuff like that encourages these anti-social losers to pull stunts like this just to get there 15 mins of internet fame. When in reality it will get them thrown in jail.

...and if they go to jail, they'll get laid! Le gasp, it's a conspiracy!

 

[Fasckira]

it seems reasonable to assume that LulzSec's attacks on Sony are motivated by the same pro-free speech/pro-hacker sentiments as Anonymous.

I think with a name like "LulzSec" theres more chance they're motivated for the "lulz".

Its already been mentioned in another article but the recent attacks (the ones that LulzSec are claiming) were pretty poor compared to the original blasts on the PSN network. I'd be surprised if this was more than just a bunch of kids riding on the media coverage.

Meh, at least Sony will be forced into properly securing everything on their network now so some good will come of it I suppose.

This is what Sony gets for taking out backwards compatibility in new PS3's.
