LulzSec members land at Anonymous claims Tweet

Notorious hacktivist group, LulzSec, who have made headlines recently for attacking a number of high profile corporations and gaming websites, may have announced their retirement from cyber terrorism in the last few days, but reports today suggest that the war is far from over.

Infamous hacking group, Anonymous, known for many years for its DDoS attacks against political targets, now claims via a Tweet that “"All @LulzSec members have reported aboard."

The two hacking groups recently joined forces to attack government agencies, but have always remained separate entities with their own objectives. If the merger is true then the two groups will be working toward the same goals for the first time, which can only mean bad news for potential targets.

Alleged LulzSec member Ryan King, who was arrested last week for allegedly hacking into The Serious Organised Crime Agency’s website, has been granted bail this week and been told, unsurprisingly, to "stay offline" while further investigations take place.

     I had figured their announcement to end Lulzsec was a desperate attempt to get the government agencies to back off them, but the damage is done.  I say keep hacking D-bags, not only have you exposed weak security all across the web (thanks for that!) but each illegal breach brings us one step closer to catching you.

    @3, Yes and also one step closer to Goverments building thier cases to regulate as much of the internet as they possibly can, or worse requiring computers to come with some sort of software to regulate or worse.

    qustion if someone could answer this would be good.. Did anyones money actually get taken from the hacks on Sony? We all know Sony had to confirm to everyone that personal info could of been leaked as the hackers had access to the servers.

    But thats all I ever heard was that it was confirmed that the hackers had access to the server but annouymous ain't a small band of theifs if they take on the goverments, cops and all that. They really where just trying to make Sony look bad due to them taking Geohotz to court in not really in it for the money even if they where theyd rather take money off the greedy.

    So my question is, was there any comfirmed reports of peoples money actually getting taken? As that was never reported on any news website even though there was such a massive news coverage on Sony
