LulzSec Releases Over 62.000 Hacked Passwords

Hacker group LulzSec published the accounts of over 62,000 emails and passwords for free for download.

Mikko H. Hypponen from F-secure believes that the emails and passwords were from a database kept by website Writerspace.com, according to the Hacker News.

Gizmodo took the database and has made a script for users to input their email address to check it against the release from LulzSec. Unless you were a member of Writerspace, you're probably not affected, but this is a good way to confirm.

That's pretty scary and a bit of a stupid way to raise awareness about security.

I don't know how these guys don't get caught. The age of the internet is a strange one. So many ways to get around things nowadays.

There are soooo many conspiracy theories about this. There's one that they're really the government doing all this and they're doing it as a ploy to try and rally support against real hackers so that people will think anyone who knows how to use a computer well is all suspicious.
