tynamite's avatar Lulzsec and Team Poison are hacking groups who are a part Anonymous. As Anonymous is leaderless, no one person can speak for the whole of Anonymous.

Lulzsec are 3 script kiddies meaning they can only use already existing computer programs to hack things. Team Poison 2 are L337 hackers who accidentally deleted 50,000 Facebook Pages. They make their own exploits. You have never heard of Team Poison because they are underground. They hack things all the time for the art then put it back how it was, with no traces.

Team Poison didn't like it how Lulzsec were hacking innocent people and publishing database dumps without censored passwords. Those were two things that Team Poison didn't agree with, especially publishing thousands of hacked people's passwords online. It was that, that tipped Team Poison over the edge.

It was Lulzsec who hacked Sony, so it's their fault why the Playstation Network went down. Lulzsec have no regard for morals or the sake of other people. As long as they get their lulz, there moves can be as pointless as they can be.

Team Poison called Lulzsec a disgrace to hacking on Pastebin and Blogspot, and published the dox on Lulzsec. Cue the FBI raiding their houses. The US government was hopeless.

Update

Also they used British VPN HideMyAss, which revealed their IP address after a subpoena.

What's an assertion, and what should I type in?

Compesh is a question and answer (and debate) website, so before you make a debate, you better learn what an assertion is. I suppose you already know what a question is, and that you've typed it in the box. ;)

An assertion, is basically a statement you can make, that is either true or false.

Richer people have better health.

The question for that would be, Do richer people have better health?

And don't forget to make your assertion, match your question.
