Right so I haven't made a new thread in a while and the Tavern seemed like the only place that this topic would fit under, but this caught my interest today. A group that goes by the name LulzSec recently released account information(email and password combos) for 62,000 users of Amazon, Papal, Facebook, and Xbox Live as well as apparently a couple of dating sites. Regardless I would post the link so that you guys could check if your on the list(using ctrl + f) but that might break a rule in AG's Terms and Conditions concerning the distribution of personal information, as well as the fact that I'm sure most of you can find this info for yourself anyways. If you guys use the same password for multiple accounts including Facebook and Xbox Live(which is used when signing in via PC) then you might want to consider changing it.
Now then with that out of the way for the long term I suppose this thread should mainly be discussing the organization as a whole and the problems with network security or something along those lines.

Oh, ****. I can't believe that a few people could do something like this. Well, it's a good thing that I use a different password for every site that I'm registered on. The only thing out of the bunch that I have an account for is Facebook, and it seems to be alright.
The name of this group is funny, though. Lulz Security. From their name, it looks like they only did this for the laughs.

I don't think there is a confirmed number of members, but I do believe that it is probably larger then a few people.

Well actually that is what they claim to be their intention. They don't go after any particular group for any particular reason, but are instead content with taking down random websites.

Hmm, makes me want to know how many people are in this group.

I don't see how that would be fun, I'd rather not spend hours trying to take down a website. But it must bring them some enjoyment.
There'll never be a solid list or number of members, that's the (apparent) beauty of it, if you leave details of the raid in the right places then people will join if they want to - it's a very fluid group that shifts and adapts and changes members with each new target.
