When are these guys going to get serious and get us some good intel on the GOP?

/Then again, I guess it would all be Palin pr0n and oil wrestling pics.

Backwards Cornfield Races: Good job, you brought down a poster.

I'm sure they keep all their undercover agent's names on there along with all sorts of sensitive data

Well, yeah - but it's the CIA's poster. No one should be able to mess with even that, if the gummint is to be believed regarding their power over all things data.

I don't think they care at all about politics, just government.

The fact is, they are actually stealing codes and extorting money for it (new window).

I'm not sure what they were trying to do with that-except get money.

How sucky is their security that this shiat can happen?

I don't think this is a good thing. I'm as nosy as the next Googler, but I googled a family in Mexico yesterday and wound up with the FBI file on the family. They had no criminal record. It's the first time I've seen an Anonymous site.

I want eye bleach.

I said data. Not Data.

On Stephen Fry in America, he visited a secret lab in Los Alamos where a lot of secret NSA computers are doing all sorts of secret science things. Stephen asked the guy how often the computers are hacked, and the guy said that there's about 3.5 million hacking attempts a day. Mostly originating from China.

The video is here.

What Anonymous does is PR. They can do nothing substantial to any vital government system.

Delectatio Morosa: Oldiron_79: They should take down Vlad Putin's website...

Ha---came here to say that. How brave and heroic of them. I'll bet my bottom dollar they leave Russian Intel alone. Radiation sickness can be a beeyotch.

They don't seem to have a problem going after the mexican drug cartels, who consider hanging mutilated corpses off of bridges to be a form of communication, so I doubt they're afraid of a little polonium. Alternatively they may simply be too cocksure to imagine they could ever be caught. Since I'm still getting crap in my email and cleaning up my credit cards after they hacked Stratfor and sold my info to the Chinese mafia, I'm not personally going to shed a tear if they turn out to be wrong on that belief.
