I guess its hacker palooza this time of the year. Feel bad for the users who got breached.

Seriously? Seriously? I guess Year of the Hacker is an accurate description after all. I really hope someone can put a stop to this soon.

Okay now they are overdoing it. I supported a good amount of general hacking just so that people know that the Inter can and does have real life power, but this is just going to make governments overreact.

Hackers! Hackers everywhar!!!! Well I wonder who is going to be next in the line of victims of "HACKER YEAR!" The year where a bunch a hackers went batshit insane and tried to hack everything they can get their grubby little mits on.

Here is hoping for harsh punishment for those involved in hacking.

Wow. Just...wow. Let's face it: when this whole hacking thing began with Sony (what, about a month ago now?) it was mildly entertaining in a, "I can't believe that really happened to such a gigantic company" kind of way. Now it's just become downright irritating. Yes, Hackers, we understand you can hack. Good job. Now would you kindly cease and desist for a while? Because that would be awesome. Thanks.

You know what sucks. if you were with sony when they got hacked, and you use Citibank, you've been hacked twice.

EDIT:

anyway, I dont use Citibank, so I just feel sorry for my friends that do.

Have you ever made your own hack and watched it work even when you thought it wouldn't? It's really great when they work.

The problem with this cycle is that successful hacks motivate other hackers to hack. So all we need is just one major bust on a group of hackers to just stop most of it in it's tracks for some time. That should derail morale among hacktivist groups for a while :3

Bring on the shady corporations and neon lights!

 

[SodaDew]

I am DONE with all the damn hackers! Grow a pair and use that talent for something good like the CIA and help out the country not try to ruin it goddamn! and now im calm again...

They arrested three people in Spain the other day, and if found guilty they were gonna get three years in jail I believe. I wouldn't mind if it was more than that tbh, to set an example for the other hackers, but I guess it'll ruin their lives anyways. Looking for jobs with a criminal record can't be fun!

OT: I don't use Citibank myself, but I feel sorry for those that do. As I've said in other threads about this subject; "I'm so fucking tired of all these hackings!".
