Lulzsec hackers go to jail

Post by Pigeon » Thu May 16, 2013 10:35 pm

LONDON, UK—The four British Lulzsec hackers—Mustafa "tflow" al-Bassam, Ryan "kayla" Ackroyd, Jake "topiary" Davis, and Ryan "ViraL" Cleary—were sentenced today to between 20 and 32 months in jail for crimes committed during Lulzsec's 50 day hacking spree in 2011. Prosecutors described the men as being at the "cutting edge of contemporary and emerging criminal offending known as cybercrime" and as "latter-day pirates."

Don't have to tell me.

Every time I stepped into a college classroom there was 2-4 Ryans and Bryans.

Makes me wonder what employers think when they see my resume:

"We already have a Ryan here" or "The last Ryan was so bastardly clever he made all of us look like retards, lets pass on him"

Hopefully I find the "I hope he's smart and good looking like my nephew".

From a generation perspective, the article shows Generation Y starting to make their mark.

I think there are better marker toting members of the generation than those. But it is the UK.

Looks like that name peaked around 1990

I heard on the Radio that the new trend is naming a kid after a last name.

"Miller" "Davis"

So instead of that joke of kids having two first names eventually it will be about having 2 last names.
