LulzSec Nabs Source Code for Sony Dev Site

[Deathninja19]

Short sighted and "we mess them up so they treat us better" logic make me lose faith in humanity, or at least the moral reasoning of my fellow gamers/net dwellers to whom i'm grouped with.

When I treat my fellow individuals poorly, I get treated poorly in return. That's not some moral failing on the part of others, it's basic social interaction. When a corporation shows consistent disregard for its customers, why should they be exempt from the same fundamental consequence?

Bringing up the Japanese earthquake is simply retarded. One doesn't get a free pass for poor customer treatment because of a natural disaster in the country of origin. That's just bizarre.

Sorry but if you're that upset with Sony don't buy their products simple as that. Don't advocate ruining thousands of lives which is what will happen if Sony does go under, it's the little man who rely on Sony and their subsidurary companiy's paychecks that gets crushed here not the CEOs who have millions of Yen or Dollars or whatever of their own money to fall back on if they find themselves out of a job.

Grow up and realise that actions like this never hurt the big fish it's always our fellow little fish that suffer.

This could be a good thing, Sony and even the FBI can track the details of that payment back to whoever set up the account that money will go too. If Sony are smart they might be able to find a whipping boy to release some of their tension on.

I thought Lulzsec were using bitcoin donations because they specifically can't be traced? :/

Nothings untracable when it comes to money especially E money. Time will tell I guess but that's something I do give props to Anonymous to they do actually keep anonymous and like other people have said Lulsec have slipped up by giving themselves a name and an identity eventually someone will find them either by a trap or one of the members growing an even bigger ego and confiding to someone they shouldn't.

 

[The_Puppy_Prince]

Can someone please explain why Lolsec is still hacking Sony?
Besides for the sake the lulz

 

[Swifteye]

These last few hacks haven't even gained an official reaction from sony. Sure they are getting hacked but apparently it isn't worth there time to mention it so I guess it might not be worth our time to notice.

 

[smudgey]

Apparently, one member has already been arrested. The group claim they didn't know him, but everyone knows in a situation like this you disavow all knowledge.[link]http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/technology/following-arrest-lulzsec-still-going-strong-57312.html[/link]

 

[Faux Furry]

Come on, Sony Defense Force! Do your job and defend Sony!
Make your Giant Enemy Crabs attack LulzSec's weak-point for massive damage and sink the LulzBoat already!

 

[twm1709]

Man, Sony. How about you get your act together?

 

[icefox3]

Lol, this is good news for me whenever Sony gets hacked. I hate the company, ever since they ruined and took over Star Wars Galaxies in 2005. They ruined a game with millions of players, and turned that number to thousands today. Too many companies try to copy world of warcraft because they dream of bathing in the green (Money), but what they're really bathing in is the hate of their customers for this repetitive cliche attempt to make a competing game for WoW.

So they deserve to have their company completely ruined and put so many people out of work?

You're motives are fucking retarded.

The internet needs more accountability behind it. If that means attaching each person to their social security number or whatever whenever they surf the web then so be it.

 

[reddfawks]

If there's anything I remember from high school drama class, it's what my teacher called the "Four Joke Rule", or how many times you can repeat the same funny thing.

1st time: Audience chuckles
2nd time: Audience laughs
3rd time: Audience is pissing themselves
4th time: Audience is bored

I think this "lulz" is now falling into some negative singularity.

 

[008Zulu_v1legacy]

I still think Sony deserves this treatment. They have been treating people like shit for years and now the people are treating them the same.

 

[artanis_neravar]

What is your point Lulzsec. Freedom of Speech or something, I don't actually think all these hacks class as Freedom of Speech anymore, more just criminal activities. Enjoy pound me in the ass prision when it comes to you.

Where on earth do you get "Freedom of Speech" as Lulzsec's motivation? Lulzsec =/= Anonymous.

Lulzsec is trying to uncover the crappy security at Sony as retaliation for what they believe is bad behaviour.

No they aren't they are trying to completely destroy Sony, operation sownage was called "the beginning of the end for sony"

I agree, after this I no longer support the right to be anonymous on the internet. If there ever comes a vote that requires you to sign into the internet using a specific code every time, I am voting yes, this is seriously bullshit. I like Sony, they never did anything bad to me, and them failing is only going to hurt me.

I hope they get all the mother fuckers, then the rest of us can finally get some lulz

 

[artanis_neravar]

You try building an impenatrible wall when every five minutes a group of people wail on it with sledgehammers and pick axes.

QFT. They could probably pick any other company out of a hat right now and do the same thing to them. Sony's just the one in the crosshairs. Customers were safe before all these hackers started pulling shit to make a point. I mean, the first big breach was just angry hackers trying to make a point right? If their security was so bad, why wasn't the first hack done by criminals trying to steal money? Why is it that the only danger Sony is in is from pricks trying to prove how in danger they are?

Ah yes, the voice of reason. At least, you would be if LulzSec was hacking Sony to 'show the flaws in their security'. LulzSec describe themselves as...

Lulz Security® (LulzSec), the world's leaders in high-quality entertainment at your expense

Not only are they aware that they're only hurting the customers...That's their entire motivation!

I think that is what they were both saying, I could be wrong but still...

I still think Sony deserves this treatment. They have been treating people like shit for years and now the people are treating them the same.

Yeah, the bastards! How DARE they make me buy their stuff!!!

-Snip-

I took rsvp42's point to be that he believed LulzSec were claiming to be doing it for a noble cause (To point out holes in Sony's security, which they HAVE claimed once before.)

That is...well...false. LulzSec is in it for the pain and suffering they cause, nothing more.

In that case I agree with you, Lulzsec is trying to destroy sony and nothing more

 

[JET1971]

Why?! What reason do they have to keep hacking Sony? They aren't even trying to steal anything, they're just doing it for attention!

For the LULZ! the lulzboat flows on LULZ ya know!

OT:

Sony is no stranger to dataloss and hacks.
http://attrition.org/security/rants/sony_aka_sownage.html
Or bad programming that allows for hacks:

When will Sony stop getting the shit kicked out of them by hackers? when they layer the internal networks with security between each layer, learn how to encrypt data... you know something that was suggested 20 odd years ago for basic protection. and they probably wont survive until then. Right Now Sony is the horse thats about to become

Look at how the stocks in Sony are going? its dropping around 2 to 5% per day.

The Sony you seen last year is dying. what will happen? either the company as a whole closes wich will be good in many ways for consumers but bad for Sony employees or they will completly revamp its image after the CEO gets fired and they start whole new bussiness practices and produce better quality products. good for the employees and possibly good for consumers.

Sony fanboys, you people are Idiots! Sony never cared about its customers and they have been screwing you over for years. Betamax and HD/DVD for example, why is a Hardware manufacturer dictating what media you use and not the best ones? look at stero equpment they made over the years. same shit in a new box with the buttons in a different spot and act like its all new. now with its consoles theres a whole new mess for dbagging the consumers and realy just renting them out and not a real sale. but atleast they are not as bad as Apple is and the fanboys for sony are smarter than Apple ones...

Lulsec are script kiddies? oh hell no they are not script kiddies, they are the ones who make script the kiddies use. Most likely they are IT admins in charge of security at some company(ies).

They didnt do much to Nintendo because they like them? bullshit. they didnt get anything from Nintendo because they had proper security and Lulzsec cut and run because they didnt want to get caught during the hack when they would be most vulnerable to tracking or Nintendo caught them in the act and Lulzsec saw that.

 

[-|-]

crazed anti sony rant

Don't like sony? Don't buy their stuff.

If you agree with these hackers than you agree with removing freedom of choice. Why would you want to remove my freedom of choice? I don't understand that at all.
