Well, some people actually deserve it, while others are just victims who have a Myspace (which I personally dislike anyway). As for Hitler, he's a symbol of hatred. Anyone with half a brain can realize it's not just a hateful image, he represents hate ITSELF! Who hacks myspace? The Internet Hate Machine, of course!
People should not whine about their accounts getting hacked and worry about what's going on in the world around them. I was sick of people asking me if I got their comments on my myspace when we go to the same school together, and tons of pedo friend requests. The point is, Myspace sucks. It provides for music makers, and that's how it should stay. While I don't approve of actual HACKING of Myspace, you only need to read about 2 hours' worth or less of information to figure out how to hack any account you want to. It's too easy. Moving that stuff to a private sector, my ass!
The internet's a public storage facility with massive bulletin boards, if you ask me. If you're going to move a publicly-accessible room's contents to a private area, people won't want to go there anymore. DEAL WITH IT, you Myspace users, or delete your account.

We're not hacking myspace, phishing =/= hacking, it consist of a fake myspace page that provides the information entered into the username and password field; They basically hand their account over there for not illegal. The whole Hitler thing is just shock value, I don't know where you get hate from, more so to get them pissed off and offended.
lol @ moonite t-shirt
oh god, I lol'd so hard.
We're not hackers, we just exploit idiots. As someone who helped phish those passwords, anyone with two braincells to rub together could set up that kind of a system.

well, it goes to show how much I know about the tpic, lol.

phishing is illegal, and just another method of cracking a password.
No government agent cares about some guy's myspace page, though.
phishing is illegal and some people had to go to prison for some years
People who do this are morons, and more often than not angsty teenagers in denial. Playing around with other peoples infrastructure does not make you cool, if you do it to big enough guys it does make you likeley to get sued for damages though, see nessun et cetera (And yes, phishing passwords and defacing web sites is a form of denial of service, and if you're in America the I'm sure if you twist the PATRIOT act around a bit, you can also work criminal charges in there). Now go find a more productive hobby.
(Side rant, when did the knowledge about how to deface a page with some style and class get lost? Is swastikas and goatse all the creativity you people can muster?)

well, the patriot act fucks everyone over in the end.
as for your side rant, I guess so. If I were to deface a page, it'd probably be editing the text there. I have a crapload of pictures to spam with that are actually pretty funny but ruin peoples' reputations at the same time...

I've always been interested in understanding those ZOMG INVASION OLOLOLOL people, so tell me, what exactly is "fun" to you people about this whole thing?
Destroying (e-)lives and hear about their misery.
>>11
it's funny when someone pulls up their myspace page and a surprising bunch of pictures are there that aren't supposed to be.
it's like pranking random strangers. you have to be a bastard to do it and it's somewhat malicious, but the intent is not evil.
Anonymous does not forgive! Anonymous did it for the lulz! Anonymous is a gang of hackers on steroids!
>>11
The lulz created by people who take the internet too seriously.
For example, lets say you phish some high-roller's Gaia account. You sell off all of the items they gathered for mere cents, and then hand it back to them. The person will absolutely explode. Comments to friends seconds apart, paragraphs in ALL CAPS threatening violence to the horrible people who dare cross them. But at the same time, they forget - it's just the internet, it's pixels, it's computer-generated currency. They really lost nothing, but they react with such emotion and indignation.
You're familiar with the Katy copypasta, right? Wouldn't you just love to punch someone with the same mentality upside the head? Or maybe someone who tries to take 4chan into real life only to fail miserably. They brag that they rickroll their friends, heard Chocolate Rain before, or blocked the pool at Habbo. I'm sure you have one or two friends like that; we all do. Wouldn't you like to do a little something to get at them? Maybe deface their Myspace profile anonymously? I think you know where I'm going with this.
After all, isn't that what Anonymous is all about?
