Yeah, it could actually hamper the police investigation.

Exactly...and all in the name of entertaining a few geeks on the internet. Pathetic.

Irony of post duly noted. Moving on...

Damn, why do I have to be at work while all this is happening...

At least I agree with their choice of 'target' for fort once...

The Sun still down!

"WE HAVE JOY WE HAVE FUN WE HAVE ROOT ON MURDOCH'S SUN"

I'm all for it. The release of the phone numbers and login details (especially Rebekah Brooks) is just the icing on the cake. I wonder how those apples taste, those very same apples...

Oh dear the idiots are at it again.

Why do you feel compelled to register to have a go or say your opinion about the hackers?

Subjectivity you say?

I didn't register for that reason, I registered a couple of days ago, this just happened to be the first thread I posted in.

Registrations take a day or two to go through.

So all their doing is DOS attacks on the websites yes?

No, they set up a redirect on The Sun & NoTW sites and think DOS'd TheTimes? Then it seems the owners pulled the plug.

"Wait a bloody second. wait. a. bloody. Second. How can we read this mornings breaking sun stories when there is no Sun website? FFFFFUUUU-"

Brilliant!

Hackers LulzSec say they have an email archive from The Sun which they plan to release later today, according to The Register. LulzSec hacked the newspaper's website last night.

Bit of the old anonymous arrestus.

The metropolitan police in London arrested the first alleged member of the LulzSec group on June 20, a 19-year-old teen named Ryan Cleary. Subsequent sweeps through Italy and Switzerland in early July led to the arrests of 15 more people -- all between the ages of 15 and 28 years old.

Probably all nobodies. Certainly not LulzSec anyway.

edit: and LulzSec seem to be up 50,000 followers/subscribers since yesterday's attacks :O

I bet the email archives would make for good reading! Bet there are some nervous employees right now.
