Lulz Security hacker arrested by FBI

[Eri]

As hacker collective Lulz Security claims it snagged Sony Computer Entertainment's Developer Network source code, newspaper The Epoch Times reports that one LulzSec member, Robert Cavanaugh, is believed to be in FBI custody.

The group frequently posts updates on its Twitter, @LulzSec, providing updates and even taunting Sony. In late May, the hacker collective tweeted, "Hey @Sony, you know we're making off with a bunch of your internal stuff right now and you haven't even noticed? Slow and steady, guys."

Maybe it's the first step in some much needed justice. Time shall tell.

For the lulz, indeed.

My view though? I only hope they catch the rest of em. And that they get jail time.

I only noticed after posting this, but regardless, he should've posted it in off topic, not gaming. Sony is much more than gaming afterall.
