Lulsec and Anonymous are hacking groups who have targeted websites opposed to Wikileaks. Meaning visa, mastercard, paypal, several news outlets, the FBI, CIA, and police persons abroad. They do so, so they claim, to fight for the rights of free speech and anti-goverment. Their usual method of operation is something FA experiences from time to time called DDOS attacks, or denial of service by bombarding a web page with so many requests it crashes. A very simple to perform attack. But what stands out to me is basically they say we should be able to say whatever we want stop trying to silence us, if we don't like you we silence you.

They also don't understand just what they are doing, apparently. For example, when they attacked paypal, how many purchases were interrupted? Money transfers? Now granted most of these are for wants rather then needs, but many times I have sent my GF money for bills or for something we were doing. I know people who use it to purchase meds, to pay insurance, rent, ect. They attacked paypal because it stopped accepting donations for Wikileaks, it also accepts donations for less ignorant causes such as breast cancer, diseases that effect children, the Japan earthquake and subsequent tsunami. Visa, Mastercard, that's how my father get's his Diabetes medicine.

You aren't cool, you aren't an activist. You are a criminal. Just as Wikileaks is, who apologized recently for, oops, releasing documents that could get people killed. Anonymous' latest victim? A news website that published photos of those arrested from Anonymous, but they are all about freedom of information you see.

Kids these days.
