Article Comparison #2









Article #1  
"Arrests Sow Mistrust Inside a Clan of Hackers"
March 6th, 2012

Article #2
"Hackers Lash Out at LulzSec Leader Turned 'Snitch'"
March 6th, 2012

Article #3
"Hackers Deface Panda Security's Website Following Arrests"
March 7th, 2012

Notes
  • #1 gave person profiles on the hackers
  • #3 focused more specifically on one encounter
  • #2 gave more insight on fellow Anonymous members reactions to the "betrayal"
  • All 3 spoke on the involvement of "Sabu" in the hackings
  • #2 was brief but thoroughly described what the article was about in a way that was quickly understood and straight to the point
  • Anonymous is an online collection of "hacktivists" that contain smaller groups of rebels
  • Their motive is more movement based as opposed to financial gain
  • Hector Xavier Monsegur "Sabu" was frowned upon by his community of hackers for being a traitor by helping the Feds
  • Relevant to class because it sheds light on the power of the web and the possibilities it holds whether good or bad, information you put online is available and present throughout the whole network therefore how you present it is imperative to the message your sending
