Only hours after embarrassing the CIA by downing its website, hacking jokesters LulzSec have issued another self-declared indictment of the Internet’s woeful security, leaking a database of 62,000 stolen passwords and user names.
Which sites the logins were culled from and when and how the hack happened the group was not revealed, but the majority are webmail logins for common sites such as Gmail, Yahoo and Hotmail.
The group encouraged anyone downloading the list to try out its contents on various sites.
