Hacker Busted accountable for Bioware EA and Epic forum network hacking captured!
Don't hack then brag about it over twitter they will get you smart guy!
In a statement this morning, the PCeU wrote that the arrest "follows an investigation into network intrusions and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks against a number of international business and intelligence agencies by what is believed to be the same hacking group." According to our own wire service, a Scotland Yard spokesman said yesterday that the arrest was connected to the DDoS attacks on SOCA, and that the attacks had ceased after the arrest.
DDoS, a way to cripple websites by overwhelming them, has been LulzSec's calling card. Just yesterday, the group tweeted: "DDoS is of course our least powerful and most abundant ammunition. Government hacking is taking place right now behind the scenes."
PCeU says it arrested the teenager "on suspicion of Computer Misuse Act, and Fraud Act offences" and that he's presently being held at a central London police station for questioning. His residence in Wickford, Essex was also searched, reportedly uncovering "a significant amount of material."
