Websites used by members of the hacker-activist collective Anonymous have been attacked. The sites, AnonOps.net and AnonOps.ru, are currently down. According to the You must login or register to view this content., AnonOps.net had been vandalized with obscenities and that “login names and internet addresses of more than 500 people alleged to have taken part in Anonymous activities” had been posted.
In an update by Anonymous administrators on AnonOps.in, the person responsible was identified as a former IRC operator by the name of “Ryan.” The update explains that the operator “scavenged the IP’s and passwords of all network servers (including the hub) and then systematically aimed denial of service attacks at them.”
Anonymous administrators urged users to stay away from AnonOps.net and AnonOps.ru. “We would STRONGLY ADVISE all users to STAY AWAY from AnonOps.net and AnonOps.ru, and they should be considered COMPROMISED. Using or connecting to any service on those addresses may put your computer, and by extension your person, at risk,” they explain.
The FBI is currently investigating whether or not Anonymous members were responsible for the recent attacks against Sony servers, which resulted in a security breach that left personal information – and possibly credit card information – of millions of PSN users exposed.
Prior to the Sony security breach, Anonymous had declared war on Sony in response to a Sony lawsuit against George “GeoHot” Hotz for hacking the PlayStation 3. Since then, administrators have denied accusations that the group or any of its members were responsible for the data theft from PSN users.

Does anyone else think that this is pretty ironic?
I would be happy, myself, if I didn't hear about anyone hacking anyone anymore at least for awhile....
