Wikileaks for Startups and silicon valley companies; that's an interesting idea.
Is this the same group that is associated with Julian Assange?
Wikileaks, yes. Anonymous no; I was simply saying a "wikileaks" for startups is an interesting concept. That's basically what has happened here; supposedly Anonymous has been hacking or intercepting Zynga internal documents and releasing them on the web.
there was once such a 'wikileaks for startups' .... it was called fuckedcompany.com and they got sued into oblivion.
Wait, I'm confused. Honest question -- so who is behind this group attacking Zynga?
It's the Hacker Group that calls itself Anonymous.
They're the ones who threatened to take down Facebook last year.
This has nothing to do with Wikileaks other than that they're employing similar techniques.
I have to say, this makes them look like bullies. Just kicking a guy when he's down. If they'd done this a year ago, maybe it would have been justice. But they are just hurting the employees further by making their poor stock worth less.
Christina, agreed. Anonymous seems very late in this announcement.
