Sony -1 Hackers +3

Sony is the target of the internet. All hackers wanting to get fame are attacking the sites. Sony has been hacked 3 more times today. The company response is to remain silent. Taking a note from dell here how successful that was. The attack method WAS THE SAME. Sony seems to be sitting around doing nothing. They should take all measures they can and shut down the websites in my own opinion. Peoples Personal information is at risk.  http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2011/05/psn_hack_splash_again_01.jpg

Scientology Attacks

The church of Scientology (LULZ) is a religion based on the writings of a science fiction write by the name of L. Ron Hubbard. The church likes to use the liberal use of the law to punish critics of the religion. They have come under scrutiny from groups such as 4chan and Anonymous because of their censoring of free speech. Multiple real world protest and internet hacks have been carried out on the church.  Sites taken down. What is everyone's opinion  on this?

Anything really safe on the internet?

The answer is no. Nothing is ever safe and secure on the internet. There are ways to make things harder to access and get to but there are always ways around the,  The internet is completely a battle between the hackers and the developers. The hackers try and find ways to gain access to information and the developers try and find ways to make things stay safe and keep hackers out. Hackers in general aren't bad tho. Some companies are hire teams of hackers to attack them on purpose for the purpose of improving security. There are also the usailly stereotype hackers whose goal is cause chaos and steal information. These hackers are sometime hired by anti virus companies to make viruses in order for them to already have the anti virus for it and advertise it to gain advantage over other software.

Have u heard of them? They are a internet based group which is said to have over 10000 members. Theya re responsible for many high profile hacks. They are also a source of good. They have contributed to the arrest of criminals like sexual predators and animal abusers. A online video of a girl throwing puppies into a river was found online and was posted onto their main site /b/ on 4 chan. The ppl of 4 chan were able to locate the girls town address name and fb profile based on 43 second video of her drowning puppies. Theya re also fighters for the free spread of knowledge and no censoring on the internet. They have had multiple fights against high class organizations such as Scientology and Sony. (Do  not get them confused with PSN hack. They only DoS the servers) http://ikeygen.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/anonymous-670x502.jpg

PSN 3rd Attack.

Death by SQL Injections. Sony was attacked again in the Greece. A huge text file was found online from a sony BMG. This is the third Breach on the Sony networks. The total loss was over 8000 personal information lsot. User names, Passwords real names. The hacking technique 'SQL Injections" which is used on big sites with multiple linking sites which can lead to an error when processing machine codes attacks from all over and enable normally forbidden hacks.

PSN

The PSN ( Play Station Network) was hacked and compromised. The hacker(s) managed to get pass the 128 bit encryption into the sony servers and could have possible stolen all the consumer credit card information  This hack is an embarrassment for Sony. After the incident they have been trying to recover but they keep on making mistakes. Even the Japanese government lacks trust in Sony and refuses to let the PS3 network go back online.
