A 18-year-old teenage boy has been arrested as a suspected spokesman for hacker group LulzSec. Scotland Yard arrested this teen and said he was believed to be Topiary, one of the most prominent members of LulzSec.
The force said in a statement that this teen was arrested in Scotland's Shetland Islands. The Huffington Post wrote, "LulzSec shot to prominence in May with attacks on the U.S. Public Broadcasting Service – whose website it defaced by posting a bogus story claiming that the late rapper Tupac Shakur had been discovered alive in New Zealand."
A group of what they claimed to be ethical hackers got together and came up with the name "Anonymous" under which title they are performing various attacks and website take-downs. LulzSec derived from that group of hackers although they are still together as seen on latest statement by both of these groups including AntiSec.
