Been hacked apparently, no idea by who but a number of spoof stories about Murdoch being found dead were posted.
Great isn't it, feels like we're in Die Hard 4

Mr Murdoch was found slumped over a particularly large garden hedge fashioned into a galloping horse "His favourite",a butler,Davidson,reports.
Butler Davidson has since been taken into custody for additional questioning.
The Sun's site is down, and yes: it's Lulz Security again:

Lovin' their work - *ahem*, not that I'd ever condone "cyber terrorism", oh no... *ahem*.
Always loved their logo, though!
I thought Lulz Security had dis-.banded?
What's the latest on that UK lad that worked for them who was arrested ?
Ha Ha. Now it redirects to Twitter feed.

Perhaps they just found a good reason to come out of retirement...

Well if they are for the people and not against them then keep it up.
A bit of IT perspective:
Hah!
They've taken all their online publications down as a precautionary measure .
Someone on The Register has been commenting on the irony of comparing the "fake" Lulz Sun site with the "real" Sun site, which (before it went down!) had as its top stories a "house from hell" and a person with a "nipple on their foot", while the story of Sean Hoare's death (top story everywhere-else) was pushed way down the pecking order...
The Sun's site is now back up: Boooo!

It was fun while it lasted.

Well, I've been waiting for the coda to this story, but it hasn't happened - yet.
One of the things I didn't want to draw direct attention to was that during the attack, LulzSec and their associates tweeted the names and phone numbers of three people who, it has turned out, are NI executives. At least one of those phone numbers was obsolete, but it still suggested that LulzSec got pretty far into the NI databases.
This morning, a LulzSec member claimed that the group "was sitting on emails of News International staffers that it planned to release on Tuesday". They also released (amongst other things) Rebekah Brooks' Sun password.
Well, no mass e-mail reveal so far - but Tuesday's not over yet...

That would be gold

When I came on here tonight I thought they had hacked us.

TBH, I think we'd be well down their list of priorities.
(And I think one look at a few of the denizens would scare them off... )
Still waiting...
LulzSec say they will release the Sun e-mails "sometime soon":
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2...zsec_ni_hack_latest/
Personally, I suspect the delay may have something to do with the recent arrests of alleged hackers belonging to LulzSec and Anonymous...
Wow, it'll be interesting to see exactly what they've got!
aww.. anonymousIRC now saying they reckon they won't release emails so they don't prejudice court case .

Rats, didn't realise it might be an issue.....but wouldn't that make them evidence or something?
You would think .. people are pointing out to them on Twitter there's no Sun court case.. as yet ..
Latest from Lulzsec.. "We're currently working with certain media outlets who have been granted exclusive access to some of the News of the World emails we have."

It's also been pointed out that LulzSec and Anonymous haven't exactly shown much regard for legal concerns in the past...
Their latest exploit has been the posting of various NATO documents; the tip of an estimated 1GB worth. However the documents posted so far are of extremely low quality, and there have been suggestions that it's a smokescreen to divert attention from the NI hack.
What about this bit of propaganda from the Times...http://politicalscrapbook.net/...ldren-phone-hacking/ ..........Had it not been in the Murdoch owned Times, it might have had more resonance!
Another arrest today ..looks like Topiary's going daaaaaahhnnn.
Topiary's getting lopped
Am I the only one impressed that 16-18 year olds know how to hack into these big companys?
