So, here we are again with a monster release of ownage and data droppage.
Previous attacks against the target were mocked, so we came along and raised the bar a little.
Fuck you gawker, hows this for "script kids"?
Your empire has been compromised, Your servers, Your database's, Online accounts and source
code have all be ripped to shreds!
You wanted attention, well guess what, You've got it now!

You would think someone like Nick Denton who likes to run his mouth
and taunts such an unforgiving mass like Anonymous, would use a more
secure password than "24862486". The sad thing is he probably
believes this password is "secure" because he likes to use it everywhere!

Why taunt guys like this? Doesn't make a lot of sense.

No, that is the same network of sites. See the 1st post:
http://gawker.com/5712615/commenting...your-passwords

They are:
Gizmodo
io9
Fleshbot
Deadspin
Kotaku
Lifehacker
Jezebel
etc...

"Taken down" in this case means, majorly compromised, the link highlights the vastness of it.

What did gawker actually say to get under the skin of 4chan? Called them script kids?

These guys certainly are on a mission of late.

fris · 12-13-2010, 04:33 AM

BlackCrayon · 12-13-2010, 05:32 AM

what anon fails to realize is their actions is going to help pass any kind of internet regulation that is up and coming.

Or, as someone else mentioned in a different thread, "Anonymous" is actually run and operated by those who seek to put said regulations in place...

Jack Sparrow · 12-13-2010, 05:51 AM

Dont say to much about them, gfy could be next if they find ya'll calling them kids ;)

Hentaikid · 12-13-2010, 05:53 AM

it's not terribly hard to take them over, just make up a statement using their lingo and memes and it will be taken as an ingroup pronouncement, post as an image with the anonymous logo, and you're set

I don't see the point of going after gawker since they didn't do anything against wikileaks...

A lot of them are kids and good for them. I am glad to see that they have to knowledge to do some of the things that they do. I personally would not spend time on something unless I was getting paid for it.

So one of the posts above makes me go. Hmmmm.
