i lost all my iOS backups as well as hundreds of gigs of other software backups. Doh! Some things are just too big to back up, but too important to fail. Attempting recovery, but it sounds like a servo malfunction, so i am most likely doomed.

Best PSN explanation EVER!
The guys at 1up.com did a great job with this one. take note sony. As should anyone who wants to store the data of millions of users. Especially if you are possibly one of those millions of users.
And the lulz keep coming!
LulzSec is back at it. Actually they never stopped, but this time they released 26,000 emails and passwords from a pile of porn sites. Again we are reminded of the ills of password reuse as email, facebook, and twitter accounts fall. This is going to reverberate across the net for a while as troublemakers make trouble for some poor porn subscribers. I almost feel bad for them. This is one way to educate the populous. Facebook was quick to block the listed emails, but if email is also compromised, it doesn’t help for long.

LulzSec Declares War on Obama’s Hacking Crackdown!
Their recents exploits include hacking FBI affiliate Infragard (Atlanta Chapter). They defaced the website, stole account information, and messed with their users. Particularly Karim Hijazi of Unveillance. LulzSec alleges that Karim (in a chat on IRC) offered them money and information to hack and his competition in the security industry. This kind hypocritical behavior is specifically deplored by hackers. Hijazi’s company email was posted online and in LulzSec’s official statement they threaten the release of his personal email as well. LulSec started taking donations with BitCoin. They used some of the money to pay for servers and their “lulzsecurity.com” domain which appears at present to be down.
