Anonymous goes after Sony, makes it personal... very personal - http://arstechnica.com/tech-po... (via http://friendfeed.com/securit...)
“The hacker collective Anonymous has attacked Sony websites all week, taking them down intermittently in retaliation for Sony's federal lawsuit against PlayStation 3 hacker George Hotz ("GeoHot"). But in recent days, "Operation Sony" morphed from a standard website attack into something a bit more personal, as some Anons formed a separate "Sony Recon" mission and began tracking down corporate executives, their wives, the schools their children attend, and the shops at which they buy their flowers. And the way they obtain that information can be ingenious—and disquieting.” #transparent_society - × × ×
“But with little real leadership, it's impossible to say who speaks for Anonymous. Even the press release admits this: “Anonymous Operations are generally independent efforts, and it would be a mistake to assume that the same individuals are responsible for every action taken. Anonymous is comprised of people with diverse points of view, of which not all coincide with one another.” - × × ×
