In response to the US government shutting down MegaUpload, Anonomous has made a public announcement via. Youtube, launching their largest attack ever on government websites and music hosts.

http://thenextweb.com/insider/2012/01/20/anonymous-on-operation-megaload-a-new-era-has-come/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:%20TheNextWeb%20%28The%20Next%20Web%20All%20Stories%29&partner=skygrid

Watch the fuck out; Anon has been unleashed.

"Earlier this week, it was reported that Anonymous is planning a major raid on Sony, with the aim of placing torrents on its homepage and making all content in its online store free of charge."

“Last April, we took down the Playstation Network. We are firmly rooted in your servers and we can, and will, take them down again.”

I'm glad to see that people are starting to protest the unjust actions of the government.

Anon is a bit extreme and I definitely don't agree with them on everything, but they do some good things. Their response to the US government shutting down Megaupload was reasonable and I supported that.

these guys are smart too the last attack they were able to use 1000s of peeps to take down these sites without them even knowing they helped lmao.

You know im glad we have a group like this to do something about it most just sit to the sideline. They say they busted them but yet here they still are good luck ha.

Man, After 12 or more years working in the web hosting business, I can sure say that there is no way to avoid people who want to make a point. Yes I've had to fight them, sometimes days on end, with no sleep. One thing I learned is to respect them. I found that many hackers are really trying to tell you something. So don't get a big head on your shoulders like Sony or they will shrink it down to size for sure. Someone is always smarter than you or me.

About 7 or so years ago, a customer hacked into parts of a server he should not have but he didn't hurt anything. He informed me of what he did and how and then helped me secure things up later after I calmed down. There is value in that to me and I learned a big lesson. I use to proclaim on the hosting site how super secure things were. Well they were but someone smarter than me proved to me otherwise.

always someone smarter than you eh.. lol Smile Real hackers only do this type of thing to prove a point, like tweaked said, and mostly inform the host of security holes. Others kiddie hackers use exploits which others have found, i call them kiddie scripts..
