Comment Currently Without Home 'Net Access (Score 1) 462

Rogers just cut all my services on Thursday, so I currently have no access from home, but there's a library directly across the street from where I live, and since I can't use my desktop to surf the Web for just under 2 weeks -- I'll be getting access again from TekSavvy -- I have to go and use the slower wifi on my laptop at the library. It's not the first time I've been without access, but it's a pain, I miss downloading from home!

Submission + - LulzSec members revealed by "LulzSec Exposed"? (blogspot.com)

mlauzon writes: "The antics by LulzSec over the past few weeks may have attracted a bit too much attention, at least for those involved in the group. Their veil of anonymity and fearlessness may be finally crumbling. Some unidentified individuals are taking matters into their own hands, feeding LulzSec a taste of their own medicine — revealing the identities of (suspected) LulzSec members to the world.

A new blog, LulzSec Exposed, began its first day on Blogspot with a mountain of IRC chat logs and personal information for a handful of LulzSec members: Kayla, BarretBrown, Joepie, Nakomis, and Topiary. Of these persons, Topiary admitted to being part of LulzSec via their official Twitter page. Three of these persons are from the United States, while one is from Sweden and one from the Netherlands. Mr. Brown has also contributed to various publications, including the Huffington Post and The Guardian.

Amongst the blog posts, there is also evidence that suggests some of the LulzSec members used to be part of Anonymous, based on similar IRC nicknames they use.

LulzSec has, not surprisingly, mocked the accuracy of the posted information. Despite that, the confident public face they put on while revealing their exploits on their site and in explaining their antics may be one giant facade, as members are being extra cautious thanks to the extra scrutiny they now face from the general public and authorities alike."

Submission + - The Pirate Bay Acquires eBay (torrentfreak.com) 1

mlauzon writes: "TorrentFreak is reporting that The Pirate Bay has purchased eBay. From the article:

Here’s an announcement we don’t read every day. As of today The Pirate Bay is the proud owner of eBay. The torrent site plans to use eBay technology to code a better rating system for torrents. How much was paid for the auction site is still a mystery.

TorrentFreak talked to one of The Pirate Bay crew members who told us that they had to find a legitimate investment for the billions of dollars they’ve made from annoying pop-under ads, and this appeared to be a decent option."
