FAGGOT TEENAGERS METASTASIZING EVERYWHERE

This kid socially engineered his way in, and we all know that EVERY hacker frequents at least one chan.
For fucks sake, no national secrets got stolen (unless you count that HAARP document, but we knew about that already), why the fuck is the FBI here?

MODS = TATTLETALES

M00t would lick MIB balls, and probably has, just to keep his site going. You have to admire that kind of dedication.

4chan on the good side in Palin email break?

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 19:35:18 -0400

(Updated) As America reacts to the contents of Alaska Governor and U.S. vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin's Yahoo email account, attention is being focused on the two sources of leaked emails and the different ways in which they reacted to the episode.

Wikileaks claims to have received screenshots and images from the email account from members associated with the group Anonymous, who usually concentrate their efforts on anti-Scientology initiatives, but screenshots of the email account also appeared briefly on the 4chan board /b/ along with the login credentials for the account. A summary of the events posted on pastebin noted that a 4chan user immediately logged in and changed the password, preventing any other access to the account, which was later locked after multiple log-in attempts and subsequently deleted.

4chan's involvement may be the strangest part of the entire story, as the site, especially /b/, is known for its hands-off administration and anything-goes culture. The whiteknighting by the user who changed the password and the removal of images by 4chan admins seem completely out of character for the site. In typical /b/ fashion, trolls claiming to be FBI representatives, as well as Palin supporters are using the incident for even more /b/-level comedy, but for a brief moment, 4chan was on the white hat side.

Note: Due to an editing error, an earlier version of this article mischaracterized 4chan, /b/, and its role in this episode. This section has been removed and replaced by the author's original description. The Industry Standard regrets the error.
