Those poor poor hackers. All that hacking and no-one seems to care about all the data that gets hacked.
Well, that is about to change thanks to a co-operative effort between Anonymous and People’s Liberation Front (PLF) as they launch HackerLeaks .
Originally the brainchild of several PLF members that was first talked about following “Operation Orlando”; which was an attack against the city of Orlando after repeated arrests of “Food Not Bombs” members, it is styled after WikiLeaks. It is meant to be a centralized site where hackers can publicize the hacked data.
From their site:
In both security as well as overall strategy, HackerLeaks is closely modeled on WikiLeaks. Our firstpriority is to provide a safe, secure – and anonymous way for hackers to disclose sensitive information. Our team of analysts first carefully screens each submission for any possible trace of the senders [sic] identity. Our second commitment is to ensure that each and every leak receives the maximum exposure possible in order to achieve the most profound political impact for the risks taken by those submitting material. To that end, we work with media outlets all over the world.
