LulzSec Leader Sabu Unmasked, Arrested and Caught Collaborating

Velcroman1 writes "Law enforcement agents on two continents swooped in on top members of the infamous computer hacking group LulzSec early this morning, and acting largely on evidence gathered by the organization's brazen leader — who sources say has been secretly working for the government for months — arrested three and charged two more with conspiracy. Charges against four of the five were based on a conspiracy case filed in New York federal court, FoxNews.com has exclusively learned. An indictment charging the suspects, who include two men from Great Britain, two from Ireland and an American in Chicago is expected to be unsealed Tuesday morning in the Southern District of New York. 'This is devastating to the organization,' said an FBI official involved with the investigation. 'We're chopping off the head of LulzSec.'"

mole mole mole mole! (read it like Austin Powers)

Seriously... they scored the head of the organization as a mole? Either blatant luck, or someone knew what they were doing.

Or option C, said head has little scruples.

I find it endlessly hilarious that you're posting as an Anonymous Coward.

Of course the head of Lulzsec has to be American. FOX News tells me only an American could lead such a group. Only an American would have the intelligence to lead third-world Brits & Irish on a rampage that damages corporations and banks. Third Worlders are idiots, that's why we keep invading them and overthrowing their governments in favor of democratic systems that favor corporations. It's the American way, and we're exporting it bigtime. Unless the particular piece of ground has nothing the corporations want. Then you can starve in your mud huts. We'll send enough Peace Corps volunteers to keep the liberals happy while we loot the rest of the planet.

We should expect them not to be trusted, and they should have expected themselves not to be trusted.

But they knew I wouldn't trust them - they expected that - so clearly I cannot drink from the cup in front of me.
