LulzSec Hacker Group Now Taking Requests

Hackers are now taking requests.

LulzSec, the hacker group behind high profile attacks on Senate computers, Sony, PBS, and game company Bethesda, among others, announced via Twitter that it has set up a "hotline" that can be used to anonymously suggest sites, servers, and more to be hacked.

"Now accepting calls from true lulz fans - let's all laugh together at butthurt gamers. 614-LULZSEC, accepting as many as we can, let's roll," @LulzSec tweeted.

On Tuesday, the group tweeted, "Call into 614-LULZSEC and pick a target and we'll obliterate it. Nobody wants to mess with The Lulz Cannon - take aim for us, twitter. #FIRE"

According to Mashable, LulzSec "has taken down eight websites on requests received via the hotline."

LulzSec most recently took down several popular gaming sites, including Minecraft and League of Legends, via a distributed denial of service attack. The group has also posted files containing data it obtained from successful breaches on its website.

LulzSec explained in a document posted online containing data it pilfered from its attack on Senate.gov, "We don't like the US government very much. Their boats are weak, their lulz are low, and their sites aren't very secure. In an attempt to help them fix their issues, we've decided to donate additional lulz in the form of owning them some more!"

If LulzSec checks in here - though I doubt that they do - I nominate the finance section of the Republican National Committee.

If you get in, feel free to keep all the money.

That's fu**ed up. I can't believe people would want to do this. You are endangering other people's private info, etc. What the hell society?

Please tell me you don't use the internet. OH, WAIT, YOU DO! Wanna guess just how secure you are? That's right! Johnny, tell him what he won! An all-expense paid trip to your basement, where no one can get your personal information! Sorry, dude. Everything you do is tracked one way or another. These guys just make life miserable for the corporations they attack.

Woah. Apparently they just took down www.cia.gov (but only for the lulz, of course).

Juvenile criminals. Attack China or Venezuela not the US.

The Corporatists aren't American. They are decidedly UN-American. They are doing to us now what they did to Chile after Allende won -- in other words, using our own CIA tactics against us.

Well, if these kids want to have some relevance in this world... go after Iran, Russia, China and all the other bIoody desp0tic one-party regimes scattered across the globe. 

Do something useful with your skills. 

Going after Sony Playstation is silly.

I'd not characterize regime in modern Russia as despotic. It is thuggish, mafia-like but not despotic per Russia's standards. The ruling group in Russia wants to maintain relationships with the West to enjoy its wealth, to have villas, soccer teams, jets.
China? Certainly authoritarian but not blood-thirsty.
What's left? Nut-cases in Iran. Sure, go for it! You might get some good in-site from the Stuxnet team.

"China? Certainly authoritar­ian but not blood-thir­sty." Tell that to the tiananmen square murder victims. Wow, you don't even know world events?

"I'd not characteri­ze regime in modern Russia as despotic" Really? so Putin doesn't wield total control? Interesting theory.

Corporatists are trying to destroy America and turn it into a fiefdom. LulzSec and Anonymous are undermining their efforts.

Sad, pathetic, little losers...

LulzSec - Losers United Lacking Zyprexa - Sadly Erectile Challenged

Get a job, move out of mommy's basement and contribute something useful to society. If the only way you can feel good about yourself (or have a LULZ) is to tear down something that someone else has built then you have serious issues. The good news is... they make medication for that. Try some!!!

:(

P.S. Seriously... a DDoS attack... wow... really "high tech"... does daddy know you're using his Bot-Net??? What a bunch of skiddies... LULZ!!! :)

You are too funny! You pretend to know what you are talking about. Did you hear your mommy and daddy talking downstairs? And why do you think you need a high-end attack to create chaos? That's the point of a DoS attack (sorry, kid, only one D). Why waste the energy on extravagant coding when a simple one will do? Even your high-end tires can be undone by a nail. And you should be aware that the things that Anonymous and LulzSec has exposed (NOT torn down - unless they were too stupid to have backups) show that many of the companies were actively working to undermine our freedoms. Better do some research, unless you're a heritage foundation hack getting paid to be stupid.

Two D's because its a "Distributed Denial of Service" attack. I'm surprised that's not in one of you crossword or bingo dictionaries. And for what its worth "Granny"... judging from your picture, I'm "almost" as old as you and I have an AARP card to prove it (and yes... there's two A's in that too)... :)
