Anonymous cyber hackers 'cost PayPal £3.5m
A student attacked the PayPal website as part of a concerted effort by the
Anonymous "hacktivists" that cost the company £3.5m, a court has heard
Christopher Weatherhead, 22, was studying at Northampton University when he
allegedly took part in the campaign
The court was told Anonymous were self-styled "hacktivists" who believed
everything on the internet should be free
MasterCard, Visa, Ministry of Sound, the British Recorded Music Industry and the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry were also hit.
My conclusion
This is fantastic that Paypal was hacked, hackers are using the internet as a way to put across there word ! they will not be heard any other way. The argument these hackers have i fully suppourt because I also feel the same. Companys need to have a more secure system if they dont want things like this spreading and becoming a daily issue. Hope these hackers are let off on this occasion, good on ya lads !
