    what's the point really? Doesn't look like these guys are doing it for the credit card info and using such info to make themselves rich, although, maybe they are.

    I'm not sure entirely what their intent is from all these hacks. But they are hacktivists of sort. They've been hacking crooked government sectors and showing how weak security can be for big companies. I'm just curious to see who's next in their firing line.

    Mostly doing it to fuck with Sony re: the Geohot court case, and to discourage other corporations from coming down on breakers.

    Well the argument is once you buy something, you own it and can do what you want with it.
