This blog will be mainly focused on my own experiences with computers and software. Both I am using now purely as a user and hobbyist. Also I comment on interesting news about ICT, privacy and combinations of both. In deze blog zal het voornamelijk gaan over ervaringen met computers en software waar ik tegenwoordig alleen nog hobbymatig mee bezig ben en mijn commentaar op imo interessante nieuwsberichten op het gebied van ICT, privacy en de combinatie van beide.

Key LulzSec figure nabbed as new attack on PayPal launched

Ars Technica has the news that Lulzsec now launched a legal attack against Paypal. In the mean time officials claim to have arrested a key figure of Lulzsec which is highly unlikely. Of course officials have a lot of resources to their account but the core of Lulzsec has shown skills that are a rare breed in any government related organisation. More likely they got some unskilled scriptkiddies who took part in the DDOS-attacks against Paypal with their own ip-address.

Closing your Paypalaccount by the way is not a bad idea: besides their boycot of Wikileaks donations, they also change their terms of services at a regular basis. And they always change in the advantage of Paypal not to their customers. Apparently they have grown that big that they do not need more customers.
