Do we really need their help? We can link our account information and have it's security whichever way we like thanks. We dont need our details compromised for god sake.

Exactly. Though it has been a problem since the 90's, these idiot hackers are only promoting illegal activity. Its like saying " hey, look how easy it is to steal stuff from stores during a riot. You need to fix this" They act like they are helping but they are also stealing in the process. I hope all these hackers looking for their internet fame get prosecuted and locked away for their crimes. BTW, most of these douche bags are from 3rd world countries. Bored much? Maybe you should go back to herding sheep?

Off-topic; but hear me out.

Both Lulsec and Anon have proved that they can get information. So far they have leaked personal data, crashed sites, and so on.
They have hacked the Pentagon, CIA.. no problem, right?

ANON and LULSEC: Why can't you do something awesome and meaningful - why can't you get hold of all info there is about say Area 51 and aliens, and publish this as a torrent? Or send it to Wikileaks? or both.

Or is this too difficult?

Once and for all people can judge if it is real or fake - the government have ALWAYS been hiding this type of info. IT would really hurt if this got out.

Agree?

Nah...jailtime is better. The longer the better. It should teach them a lesson.

subtenko4653d ago

I always smirk at those pics x)

it should have its own cartoon

Agree or Disagree if you Agree

subtenko4651d ago

I know they are called meme's but they should have their own series. Nyan cat anime, lolzsec anime would be funny like robot chicken, the plot could go anywhere. Not every meme is gonna work tho, but someone work. Actually some do already have a cartoon but lulzsec doesnt right now.

Agree or Disagree if you Agree

out of all the hackers, lulsec deserves the least amount of attention. He is nothing but an attention whore and doesn't even try to stand for internet or gaming issues.

doctorstrange4653d ago

Who are all dicks. They have no real agenda other than to piss people off.
It makes their eventual demise all the more poignant.

Kran4653d ago (Edited 4653d ago )

But then, its like a murderer really.

Police could have got the wrong people for murder too.

You just never know. Look at the UK newspapers now and the hell they are going through to what they did to that man who's reputation is ruined.

R4MBO4653d ago

Hope they find the right guy and jail him for life

doctorstrange4653d ago

LulzSec Exposed people claim to know his real identity - hopefully it's true and the police can track him down.

doctorstrange4653d ago

If it's the UK, life seems to equate to 10 years

bobrea4653d ago

Maximum trolling if this is true
