    There is no way to distinguish between a dickhead hacker, some leecher who grabbed the file, or the real person. Peoples lives could and likely will be made a misery because of this, and you find them 'funny' ...

    Grow up.

    I don't really care about the anon rivalry they supposedly have.. but I know they are teenagers who probably just got fed up.. they had the only keys to a building so they decided why not..

    hacking servers has been going on forever man.. the only reason your mad is because it's effected you somehow.. china does it all the time- actually they have a super computer that I'm sure is used to crunch rainbow tables and hashes/brute force all day.. you won't hear about it because they target information important to them

    these aren't the only people out there.. funny they seem to have no other motive but to cause misery.. I put them quite a bit above the governments and organized crime involved in much deeper theft of information

    it is amusing to see the ground level of exploit development go nuts.. gotta admit the twitter feeds are pretty funny- like the stuff about facebook and how it rules people's lives.. it wouldn't be funny if it wasn't true

    They sound like plebs with nothing in their lives except for these malicious 'exploits', to me.
    Nothing funny about them. I pity them. It was just silly and a waste of their talent when they were just attacking sites to bring them down. As soon as they started releasing other people's private data for 'Lulz' that became an affirmation that they jkust need to grow up and try and do something productive with their meagre lives. Productive doesn't mean boring, and fun doesn't mean being a complete dick. It's because so many fools get this simple idea wrong that we have so many people like Lulzsec et al.

    Shame really. These small minded individuals give the larger majority of intelligent and decent computer wizards a very bad name.
