I am not of the understanding? I must not be as uber l337 as I thought. Or I can't read.
Why would you even post that?

Why would you even post that?

For the lulz; for victory!

Ipse Dixit!

Why would you even post that?

Because this forum happens to be called "Security News", and the fact that a new skiddies on the block group seeming to be hell bent on starting some kind of range war with full-disclosure sites is exactly what the forum title says.

That, and the fact that the target site is still down...............which indicates that it is for real and not some hoax BS?

I have noticed that you like the "let me Google that for you" answer...........perhaps you should take a leaf out of your own book and see what furore has been caused on the "darkside", before making non-contributory posts?

I didn't take it as him referring to you nihil, but to the anti-sec group... I could be wrong though.

Well,

Let's just say that there are certain members of another site, called the "*******" or somesuch, who delight in causing trouble here.

You will know the most obvious of them because it will be in their signatures

Greetz.

This Anti-Sec group 1st made headlines when they succesfully pwned ImageShack>

Article at SlashDot

from the a-picture's-worth-a-couple-hundred-words-or-so dept.

"Last night a group calling themselves 'Anti-Sec' hacked ImageShack, one of the largest image hosting sites on the web, and replaced many of the site's hosted pictures with one of their own, which detailed their manifesto. The group's grievance is against full-disclosure of exploits, an issue that was debated recently after a presentation on an ATM exploit was canceled. Anti-Sec simply wants the practice within security circles to end, and they've promised to cause 'mayhem and destruction' if it doesn't. These people are taking direct aim against a sector of the IT industry that is already armed to fight the ... but they also already know that. It should be interesting to see how this plays out."

And as far as them being "Skiddies"... Well don't count on it...

You're not looking at the big picture.

These people have created forums where the topic of choice is victimising internet users.

What they don't realise is that ddos attacks, spamming, defacements, and general trolling is just the sort of response the internet at large has in return.

Dude don't get your panties in a wad. I should have said "Why would 'THEY' even post that"

It's called sarcasm and was directed at the uber l337 hax0rs post, not your link.

And as far as them being "Skiddies"... Well don't count on it...

I don't know about that. Now days even botnet servers have point and click CNC.

That's command and control (also sarcasm - but true)

Here's a link for ya Nihil
