http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/4chan
4chan is een Engelstalig imageboard/internetforum. 4chan werd op 1 oktober 2003 opgericht door de toen 15-jarige "moot". Gebruikers kunnen volledig anoniem afbeeldingen en reacties plaatsen over alle denkbare onderwerpen. De site is gebaseerd op het Japanse internetforum Futaba Channel en is onderverdeeld in verschillende subfora, 'boards' genaamd. Het meest populaire (en beruchte) is het Random board, genaamd /b/. 4chan gebruikers zijn verantwoordelijk voor het bedenken of populariseren van vele zogeheten internetmemes.
Een bekende meme komt van een Japanse manga.
Als je denkt dat je geweldig bent of iets fantastisch hebt gedaan zeg je “I’m over 9000”
Oprah Winfrey weet het , na een berichtje van 4chan, nu ook:

Iedereen kan via 4chan, maar ook via de ouderwetse IRC-channels, volledig anoniem met elkaar “communiceren”. http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat

4chan /b/ gaat over borsten, cracken/hacken van software en websites, down- en uploaden. De veelal jonge gebruikers van 4chan verveelden zich niet alleen met elkaar, maar hun kattenkwaad bereikte ook de echte wereld. Buren en leraren kregen ongevraagd pizza-bezorgers aan de deur of werden over de telefoon lastig gevallen nadat persoonlijke gegevens via 4chan werden verspreidt. Ook werden websites bestookt met commentaar of extreem veel bezoek. Bezoek dat na verloop van tijd werd geautomatiseerd met behulp van een test-tool voor websites, omgebouwd en omgedoopt tot Low Orbit Ion Cannon.


Binnen de Anon-community ontstond op een dag het hacktivisme. En het heette Anonymous. Anonymous belichaamde een belangrijk Anon-ideaal: Vrij, open, ongecensureerd internet, onbeperkte vrijheid van (het delen van) informatie. En Anonymous vond een vijand. Januari 2008.
Deze interne propaganda-video lekte uit en kwam uit via Gawker. Scientology staat er om bekend om auteurswetgeving te misbruiken om hun methoden uit de openbaarheid te houden. Scientology vroeg Gawker de video te verwijderen. De video bleef opduiken en nadat advocaten van Scientology wereldwijd websites terroriseerden kwam Anonymous met hun oorlogsverklaring.
Anonymous gebruikte het volledige 4chan arsenaal. DDOSsen van scientology-websites, e-mail/fax-bommen, prank-calls. Maar de acties breidden zich uit naar de echte wereld. Main-stream media pikten het op en demonstraties over de hele wereld vonden plaats.


Na maanden werd het wat rustiger tussen Anonymous en Scientology, maar Oparation Chanalogy loopt nog steeds. De strijd voor een vrij en open internet bleef en richtte zich vooral op film- en platenmaatschappijen in Operation Payback. Die Operatie kreeg een ander karakter nadat Anonymous zich solidair verklaarde met WikiLeaks toen Joe Liebermann financiële mogelijkheden van WikiLeaks probeerde af te sluiten.

Kort daarna kwam de video voor Operation Payback uit.

3 januari 2011 opende Anonymous de aanval op websites van Tunesië, en Anonymous bemoeit zich tot op de dag van vandaag met de revoluties in het Midden Oosten. Niet alleen met DDOS-aanvallen, maar ook met informatie (naar demonstranten en naar het internationale publiek) praktische tips (EHBO, maak zelf een gasmasker) alternatieve communicatiemiddelen.

5 februari 2011: Ene Aaron Barr van HBGary Federal maakte in een interview bekend dat hij de leiders van Anonymous had geïdentificeerd. Een groep hackers hackte de computers van HBGary, zette een boodschap op hun website, wiste een berg data en openbaarde 70.000 e-mails. Uit de e-mails bleek dat het Amerikaanse bedrijfsleven en de overheid alle legale en illegale middelen gebruikt om tegenstanders (mensenrechten organisaties, vakbonden en WikiLeaks) kapot te maken.

Hackers dump 1 million Apple UDIDs found on FBI laptop

Antisec — a hacking group associated with Anonymous — have released over a million UDIDs found on a compromised FBI laptop.

During the second week of March 2012, a Dell Vostro notebook, used by Supervisor Special Agent Christopher K. Stangl from FBI Regional Cyber Action Team and New York FBI Office Evidence Response Team was breached using the AtomicReferenceArray vulnerability on Java, during the shell session some files were downloaded from his Desktop folder one of them with the name of “NCFTA_iOS_devices_intel.csv” turned to be a list of 12,367,232 Apple iOS devices including Unique Device Identifiers (UDID), user names, name of device, type of device, Apple Push Notification Service tokens, zipcodes, cellphone numbers, addresses, etc. the personal details fields referring to people appears many times empty leaving the whole list incompleted on many parts. no other file on the same folder makes mention about this list or its purpose.

The hacked file was found to contain 12 million Apple UDIDs, Notification Center tokens, usernames and in some cases mobile phone numbers, names, addresses and zip codes.

Out of the 1 million — 1,000,001, to be precise — the hackers had stripped away most of the personal data, leaving just Apple UDIDs, APNS (push notifications), device type (e.g. “iPhone”) and device name (e.g. Max’s iPhone). MacRumors claim they’re able to verify the dump.

The intent for releasing this information is unclear, as is the effect on you if your UDID was released. Unfortunately, the only way you’ll be able to find out if yours is included is by downloading the entire list yourself.

UPDATE 09/04 21:35 GMT The FBI has released a statement saying that "at this time, there is no evidence indicating that an FBI laptop was compromised or that the FBI either sought or obtained this data.".

We would like to point out that at this time, we have no reason to doubt the claim that the data in question was indeed obtained from the agent's notebook. The fact that the FBI has no "evidence" of a databreach on one of their notebooks does not allow the conclusion that it never happened.

There is also reason to assume that AntiSec has more material from the notebook in question as this file seems to be related to the 3 Terabyte of data to be released, as anounced earlier this year by AntiSec. We will update this section as soon as more information is available.

Here Is a Picture of a Gawker Writer Wearing a Tutu with a Shoe on His Head



As a journalist, I am sworn to bring facts to light by any means necessary. So here is a picture of me in a tutu with a shoe on my head at Gawker HQ. (A size 9 1/2 men's Reebok Question, to be exact.)

Anonymous had demanded that Gawker post this picture before they granted interviews to anyone about their latest hack that's freaked out the internet: 12 million Apple device IDs, allegedly stolen from an FBI cybersecurity agent's laptop. If true, the revelation of an enormous database of iPhones and iPads on an FBI computer would have worrying privacy implications.

But yesterday Anonymous wrote in a press release accompanying the leak of one million of the IDs:

. no more interviews to anyone till Adrian Chen get featured in the front page of Gawker, a whole day, with a huge picture of him dressing a ballet tutu and shoe on the head.

And so far, Anonymous hasn't released any more details about the alleged hack—even as the FBI has claimed the group lied about the data coming from them.

I wanted at least some sense that Anonymous' offer wasn't just for the lulz, as they say, before I posted this and further stained my already-pretty-stained Google results. So I signed on to Anonymous' IRC chatroom and asked why I should trust the author of press release.

"I do understand your position, i'd like a word before stunting like that, too xD," one of his colleagues said. "On the bright side, I've worked with him for long time now and the man does live up to his word." The author himself went offline soon after posting the press release and hasn't returned.

But why me?

"People don't actually like you that much," said another Anonymous member. He then linked to a May Facebook post in which another Anon complained about how I'd called bullshit on a ludicrous claim that Anonymous had access to "every classified database in the U.S." Anonymous and I have had a rocky relationship since I first started writing about them in the summer of 2010, in fact.

So, there's me in a tutu. Get used to it because it's going to be up until around 6:30pm tomorrow. (I left my shirt on, because nobody needs to see that. )

My email address is Adrian@gawker.com, and I'm on Twitter at @AdrianChen if any Anonymous hackers and/or journalism prize committees would like to chat.

What the Anonymous attacks on MI5 and MI6 tell us

As Infosecurity reported yesterday, both the MI5 and MI6 websites were attacked by Anonymous in the name of OpFreeAssange. Both sites were down for about an hour, demonstrating that few sites can withstand a concerted DDoS attack.

They join a growing list of government sites in both the UK and Sweden that have been attacked in protest against the treatment of Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks and currently blockaded by the UK police in the Ecuador embassy in London. The action against MI5 and MI6 was a mainstream Anonymous action. While Anonymous tends to use DDoS as its form of online protest, a separate hacking group known as NullCrew engages in actual hacking – breaking into computers and frequently dumping its spoils on sites such as Pastebin. One member of NullCrew, known as ‘0x00x00’ has been breaking into sites (such as the Northern Ireland Home Office) and pasting an Assange poster. NullCrew supports several Anonymous operations – including OpFreeAssange – but is not a part of Anonymous.

An Anonymous spokesperson yesterday told TechWeek Europe that the online protests were there to support the ongoing physical protest outside the Ecuador embassy: people on the ground and hackers and DDoS crews online. He added, “We have found [a] way to circumvent the government’s new security and we are testing different methods.”

Paul Lawrence, VP International Operations at Corero Network Security, finds this last statement particularly worrying. “Although these comments may be sensationalizing the attack that brought down both sites for just over an hour,” he said, “it should serve as fair warning to any government agency or business that operates online. A motivated hacker who has targeted your organization will find even the smallest of flaws in your security and exploit it.”

There are indeed indications that political activism is changing the nature of the online threat, with activist hackers becoming more and more targeted and focused in their actions. The dump of Apple UDIDs supposedly stolen from the FBI by AntiSec is a good example. Although the FBI has denied that it ever happened, many security commentators suspect that it could be true. Imperva’s Rob Rachwald is one. “This breach resembles a new innovation by hacktivists. Specifically, they targeted an individual in the same way government-sponsored hackers (a.k.a., APT hackers) would attack.”

It suggests that Anonymous is no longer content with mere DDoS as an online protest. And with skilled hacking teams like NullCrew and AntiSec replacing the defunct LulzSec, they have the ability to take their protest into, rather than merely against, high profile targets. “Any and every site can be a target,” said Lawrence, “and the sooner businesses and government agencies come to understand this, the sooner they can start putting in place measures to protect themselves, and limit the damage that an attack may cause.”

EXCLUSIVE: The real source of Apple device IDs leaked by Anonymous last week

A small Florida publishing company says the million-record database of Apple gadget identifiers released last week by the hacker group Anonymous was stolen from its servers two weeks ago. The admission, delivered by the company’s CEO exclusively to NBC News, contradicts Anonymous' claim that the hacker group stole the data from an FBI agent's laptop in March.

Anonymous’ accusations garnered attention because they suggested that the FBI was using the unique gadget identifiers -- called UDIDs -- to engage in high-level spying on American citizens via their iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touch devices. The FBI denied the claim, last week, and when asked to comment for this story, referred to last week’s denial.

Paul DeHart, CEO of the Blue Toad publishing company, told NBC News that technicians at his firm downloaded the data released by Anonymous and compared it to the company's own database. The analysis found a 98 percent correlation between the two datasets.

"That's 100 percent confidence level, it's our data," DeHart said. "As soon as we found out we were involved and victimized, we approached the appropriate law enforcement officials, and we began to take steps to come forward, clear the record and take responsibility for this.”

DeHart said an outside researcher named David Schuetz contacted his company last week and suggested the data might have come from Blue Toad. The company's forensic analysis then showed it had been stolen "in the past two weeks." He declined to provide further details, citing an ongoing investigation.

“I had no idea the impact this would ultimately cause,” DeHart continued. “We're pretty apologetic to the people who relied on us to keep this information secure."

DeHart said he could not rule out the possibility that the data stolen from his company’s servers was shared with others, and eventually made its way onto an FBI computer. He also said that he doesn’t know who took the data.

The discovery of the theft casts serious doubt on Anonymous’ claims that the data came from the FBI, and was pilfered in March.

"Timing-wise, (their) story doesn't make sense," he said.

Both Apple and the FBI were quick to deny that they were conspiring to use UDIDs to track U.S. citizens; the FBI said it never had the data, and Apple said in a statement it had never given the data to the FBI.

"As an app developer, BlueToad would have access to a user's device information such as UDID, device name and type," Apple spokeswoman Trudy Mullter told NBC News on Monday. "Developers do not have access to users' account information, passwords or credit card information, unless a user specifically elects to provide that information to the developer."

Blue Toad is a little-known privately held company, but its technology touches millions of users around the world. It provides private-label digital edition and app-building services to 6,000 different publishers, and serves 100 million page views each month, DeHart said. He declined to discuss business partners, but said the list of clients includes household names.

DeHart said his firm would not be contacting individual consumers to notify them that their information had been compromised, instead leaving it up to individual publishers to contact readers as they see fit.

Schuetz, the researcher who discovered the source of the data, told NBC News that he was able to determine that Blue Toad was the source of the leak by tying together clues within the leaked data. In addition to the UDIDs, the data leaked by Anonymous also included the name given to each gadget by its owner.

“I spent most of Tuesday evening obsessing over this,” said Schuetz, who works for the Intrepidus Group, a New York-based mobile device security consulting firm.

Schuetz said that after pouring over the information, he found numerous devices within the data which had names that included the phrase Blue Toad or variations of that, such as “Blue Toad support.” Some of the gadgets’ names also suggested they belonged to various departments within Blue Toad and were shared among multiple employees

“What I was seeing was that there were-- of the million devices that were in there -- there were a few devices that showed up multiple times with themes that were related to Blue Toad,” he said. “By the time I was done, late Tuesday night, I think I had 19 devices that … all belonged to Blue Toad.,” he said. He contacted the company soon after.

The UDID -- which stands for Unique Device Identifier -- is present on Apple iPads, iPods and iPhones, and is similar to a serial number. During the past year, researchers have found that many app developers have used the UDID to help keep track of their users, storing the data in various databases and often associating it with other personal information. When matched with other information, the UDID can be used to track users' app usage, social media usage or location. It could also be used to "push" potentially dangerous applications onto users' Apple gadgets.

There is debate about how dangerous the release of the UDID data is without the other information. DeHart said he knew of no practical malicious use for the leaked data.

"Honestly, the UDID information by itself isn't harmful, as far as we know," he said. "I can’t say anything is impossible, but the reality is, to push notifications to a device, you need certain keys, certain Apple credentials. You have to have a developer’s account with Apple. … So there are lots of processes in place, measures to keep the average ‘anybody’ from being able to take UDIDs and begin doing something with that information."

There is no way for users to check to see if their UDID information has been collected by Blue Toad, DeHart said. He recommended that concerned Apple users visit websites that have created search engines where users can see if their UDID is in the data dump, such as this one. But he said consumers should not overreact to news of the leak.

“I would hate to suggest that they need to go out and begin clearing off their device or removing or deleting apps-- just because of the concern that this,” he said. "Check one of these sites to see if your UDID was part of the database dump. And if it is, use your own personal discretion on what you think is appropriate. … One of the best things you could do at the moment is go in and upgrade that app if there's an upgrade available for it.”

Updating is important because, seeing the potential privacy issues, Apple earlier this year advised developers to discontinue use of the UDID to track users. Blue Toad no longer uses UDIDs in its software, DeHart said, and updated versions of its software don’t collect it.

Aldo Cortesi, a security researcher who has been crusading against use of UDIDs for some time, disagreed with DeHart and said the release of the data represents a great risk to users. Cortesi has previously used UDIDs to log into consumers’ gaming accounts, access contact lists, and connect the ID numbers to real identities. He was then able to hijack device owners’ Twitter and Facebook accounts.

“The concern is that there may be a UDID-related problem out there of the kind I've described, which could now be exploited at a massive scale, by someone armed with a million UDIDs,” he told NBC News. “The type of information I was able to access would have been very valuable to scammers and identity thieves, for instance. With mischievous entities like Antisec and Anonymous about, you can even envision a massive public dump of users' private information, just for the hell of it. We just don't know what the full impact might be.”

Users who are concerned their UDID might be in the leaked list really don’t have any good options for dealing with the issue – generally, the UDID cannot be changed in the way a user might change a password after that had been stolen by hackers.

“There's nothing you can do. The UDID is permanently burned into the device,” Schuetz said.

He was measured in his assessment of the risk, saying the UDID was only one piece of information hackers might need to attack users.

“A journey of 1,000 miles starts with one step,” he said. “This could be the first step to a thousand- mile hack on a million different people.”

The hacker group Anonymous announced release of the data on Sept. 3 from its Twitter account, giving instructions on how to obtain the database. The instructions were accompanied by a statement accusing the FBI of using UDIDs to track Americans; in fact, the writer of the message said the data was being released exclusively to call attention FBI surveillance. Those statements drew the most attention after the release.

"Why exposing this personal data? ... We have learnt it seems quite clear nobody pays attention if you just come and say 'hey, FBI is using your device details and info and who the f&&& knows what the hell are they experimenting with that', well sorry, but nobody will care," says the Anonymous writer, in typical broken English. "So without even being sure if the current choice will guarantee that people will pay attention to this F&&& shouted 'F&&& FBI IS USING YOUR DEVICE INFO FOR A TRACKING PEOPLE PROJECT OR SOME S&&& well at least it seems our best bet."

Schuetz, who discovered the source of the leaked data, said he couldn’t say conclusively if Anonymous claims about the FBI were false or true.

“It does raise questions,” he said. “I think people need to question what they see online, whether it comes from Anonymous or from a news organization or from a politician or from a corporation. You need to not take things at face value right away and jump straight to what you think it says. Somebody says, ‘Oh, this came from the FBI, everybody believes it. Well, let’s think about (it).”

GoDaddy Outage Takes Down Millions Of Sites, Anonymous Member Claims Responsibility

According to many customers, sites hosted by major web host and domain registrar GoDaddy are down. According to the official GoDaddy Twitter account the company is aware of the issue and is working to resolve it. Update: customers are complaining that GoDaddy hosted e-mail accounts are down as well, along with GoDaddy phone service and all sites using GoDaddy’s DNS service.

Update 2: Anonymous is claiming responsibility. A member of Anonymous known as AnonymousOwn3r is claiming responsibility, and makes it clear this is not an Anonymous collective action.

I’ve been adding more information below as details emerge.

A tipster tells us that the technical reason for the failure is being caused by the inaccessibility of GoDaddy’s DNS servers — specifically CNS1.SECURESERVER.NET, CNS2.SECURESERVER.NET, and CNS3.SECURESERVER.NET are failing to resolve.

AnonymousOwn3r’s bio reads “Security leader of #Anonymous (~Official member~).” The individual claims to be from Brazil, and hasn’t issued a statement as to why GoDaddy was targeted.

Last year GoDaddy was pressured into opposing SOPA as customers transferred domains off the service, and the company has been the center of a few other controversies. However, AnonymousOwn3r has tweeted “I’m not anti go daddy, you guys will undestand because i did this attack.”

Oprichter Pirate Bay uitgeleverd en nu aangeklaagd voor hacken fiscus

Een van de oprichters van The Pirate Bay die door Cambodja aan Zweden is uitgeleverd wordt verdacht van het hacken van de Zweedse fiscus. Gottfrid Svartholm Warg werd vorige week in Azië opgepakt nadat er sinds 2009 een internationaal arrestatiebevel tegen hem gold.

Svartholm werd toen met drie andere medeoprichters van de downloadsite tot een jaar gevangenisstraf veroordeeld. Tijdens de zaak waarin het hoger beroep werd behandeld, kwam hij niet opdagen en verdween in het niets.

Zweedse aanklagers zeggen nu dat er een nieuwe zaak tegen Svartholm wordt aangespannen voor het hacken van de Zweedse belastingdienst. Het zou gaan om een bedrijf dat voor de fiscus persoonlijke en gevoelige informatie verwerkt.

De 27-jarige Zweed werd vorige week in Cambodja gearresteerd. Hij woonde sinds 2010 in Phnom Penh.

Go Daddy Site Outage Investigation Completed
.
Yesterday, GoDaddy.com and many of our customers experienced intermittent service outages starting shortly after 10 a.m. PDT. Service was fully restored by 4 p.m. PDT.

The service outage was not caused by external influences. It was not a "hack" and it was not a denial of service attack (DDoS). We have determined the service outage was due to a series of internal network events that corrupted router data tables. Once the issues were identified, we took corrective actions to restore services for our customers and GoDaddy.com. We have implemented measures to prevent this from occurring again.

At no time was any customer data at risk or were any of our systems compromised.

Throughout our history, we have provided 99.999% uptime in our DNS infrastructure. This is the level our customers expect from us and the level we expect of ourselves. We have let our customers down and we know it.

We take our business and our customers' businesses very seriously. We apologize to our customers for these events and thank them for their patience.

AntiSec RE FBI hack

BECAUSE NO CONSPIRACY THEORY IS DIRTIER THAN THE REAL WORLD
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

RE: FBI trapping cocks with its ass.

links to our last notes:

http://pastebin.com/nfVT7b0Z <--- original PR

http://pastie.org/4678441 <--- LOL'd . it wasnt supposed to be posted like that.
it was intended to be redacted those lines intended for the internal guise. but wtf...whatever.

disclaimer:sorry guise the broken english, we wrote this at hyper-awesome-speed.

wOW. What an epic and intense week...

FBI crying at us in caps!!! lol at such abnormal way: 'TOTALLY FALSE' (... and we ll call our daddy)
then contradicting themselves with a polite and more legally clever statement.

then we got Adrian Chen dressing a tutu with a shoe on his head. (ok that was for you too redditors)

then we got glitches and artifacts in some anonymizing networks.

then we learn FBI is deploying a $1 billion project for id and tracking ppl on the streets using cameras and facial recognition.
(they could use someday your own iPhone or Android camera too, it seems).

then we got a more than faithful media and security consultors helping govt to play down this (show me the money!!).

then we got Topiary's letter.

then we learned US govt wants to push an executive bill, without congress approval, on 'cybersecurity'.

then we got fire from GoDaddy scandal the same day news magically also got front page everywhere discrediting the
FBI hack with some company making themselves responsible(?!) LOL!

holy shit...

But there's a little bit problem. first we dont know what the fuck is blue toad and wtf is doing on this. but, more juicy thing,
you have a problem, houston:
SOME JOURNALISTS KNEW ABOUT THIS HACK QUITE LONG TIME BEFORE YOU, BLUE TOAST (or whatever), DECLARED TO BE HACKED.
XD
Lulz. epic fail is epic.
just waiting to see how they will fix that.




we have some interesting notes we got from the feedback:

so apparently the FBI informants inside the group have failed to help this out.(sorry guise but we needed to test this out)

FBI wasnt able to recover or to decrypt files in the computer of one of the current accused guise. (yeah, we needed to know this too). so yes, they are forced to keep new informants.

white hats and some other guise, should be more cultivated. the insult to romney is indeed the specific reference to a Goethe's work, with a specific sense.
so we dedicate to them "Leck mich im Arsch" by Mozart.



so well, as we figured it out. antisec releases are blessed only if they serve to FBI (or some other shit) purposes.
it seems they dont take them well, when we catch them pants down.
so how does it feel having all those informants between us without being useful at all?
lets trash antisec now its not helpful anymore!!

yep guise. the reality is even more complex than we imagine.
we read it. "gabriella coleman met sabu and realised he was an FBI informant since long time".
huh, biella? have u realised you could have saved the lives of our friends and stopped FBI of using antisec for their own purposes?
yep, we are disappointed too.
but well, sometimes the truth just walk in front of us,
and we dont want to look at it,
or we just dont want to know the consequences of learning it.
but yes, we are disappointed.

we are disappointed cause we dont know who to trust to anymore.
thats what our govts wanted from us.
slaves vs slaves.



let us tell all of you an interesting story to show u how complex things are many times:

time before we handed syrian mails to wikileaks we talked to AJE. we started to transfer some
bits of those mails to an isolated server in qatar. suddenly we learned they received an order from their bosses
to stop the whole thingie. we still dont know why. funny thing, AJE is still targeted by syrian cyber army, hizbollah cyber army
and iran. so lets go on. time after, we handed those mails to wikileaks servers. Fearing Assange (then dealing to star 'The World Tomorrow' tv show in Russia Today channel linked to Putin) could play down the mails, we then transferred mails also to AP, Associated Press, through one of our hidden servers. then we learned AP bosses decided to drop the whole thing too. awesome. Finally the syrian mails got published by Wikileaks, after everyone else just turned their back, even without knowing what was there on them.
Have more journalists known about these mails existence previously their publication?
yep a lot.
any word out about it?
nope.

yep, we did a mistake.
and We are really sorry, Julian.
We shouldnt have doubted about your commitment.
we are trying to learn from our own mistakes, too.


yep, the world is more complex than we think.
theres always another behind behind the behind.



other less serious example:
sabu was managed by a FBI team, some of them specialized in anti-terrorism, specially islamism linked terrorism.
their strategy was also about using sabu posing as a pro-islamist, ranting about stuff, to trap islamist hackers at the same time they were linking antisec with islamist terrorist ideology.
Be careful guise about what u think about Sabu, he served as tool in a more complex way we think, harvesting info not only on antisec or lulzsec but on a wide range of things and people.
and worst.
we dont know exactly since when (there r some contradictions now between some facts and the official version) he was serving FBI.

other little lulz:
some folks told us thompson-reuters tried to bribe them on the release of innodata with a huge amount of money. lulz.

yep, things are complicated.
and what we think it should be the truth many times its not.

'the simplest explanation should be the right one' <---- LIE. there's no simple explanation.

lets see how many news articles we will see about this PR over next days.

at the end, as we said before, people will choose who to believe to.
anything (but anything we could show, say or post) will change that.

so yep guise. we are not here trying to force you to believe us.
we have just posted our data and statement, and given out our point of view.
you r free to do what u want with them.
we will post tech details when we feel its fit best but we're convinced any sort of extra detail, at least on this one, will finish being played down anyway; this govt affair was always planned to be taken down. and we learned evidence will not be useful by anyone else than LE and it will only serve to track us better and link us with other activities we have done.
we learn from our past mistakes.
we said we would avoid this when we posted we would go ghosts.
Our own heads perhaps, for the pleasure of many, will roll down some day...but not today.

we are not namefagging people.
our nicks never go public.
all we do its anonymously done.
we work 24/24hrs 7 days a week, 365 days a year. we earn 0 money.
against all people think, we dont receive any personal credit or special status.
indeed it's worst. we live like fugitives and we are hated by many.
and we risk our whole life in prison.
we sign antisec, because its a movement anyone can participate in.
sometimes we can use the shared voice of http://twitter.com/AnonymousIRC to express ourselves.

fighting this battle will get you haters, enemies, isolation, condemnation, jail.
it will break yourself apart of your friends sometimes.
and mostly nobody will understand what really is going on.
but it is worth every fucking second of it.

for those ones who have to struggle on their lives for trespassing the limits of the system.
To Julian Assange, Brad Manning, and all those unnamed ones.
To our friends: kayla, Hammond, tflow, topiary, pwnsauce, palladium and all those unnamed ones.
we can be isolated, hated, jailed and distanced each other.
but you are not alone.


Stay tuned, folks!
we have more releases to come for the utterly lulz!

and don't forget to smash all those cameras on the street down.
they won't be used to track only criminals.
they will be used to track dissidents, activists, unions, business men, workers, your parents, your brothers, you.
they will spy on every single act of your daily life.
that's our future.


long time after all of us disappear, it will be only you
and the choices you make.
