This picture was used as a message against LulzSec: http://i54.tinypic.com/14jrhiw.png LulzSec is in a pretty bad position at the moment, do you think they're gone for good or do you think they'll make a return? Vote away! Read more on this subject: http://www.bgr.com/2011/06/22/lulzsec-hacked-exposed-by-rival-hackers/
I read in the newspaper that a nineteen year old teenager here in the United Kingdom was arrested for trying to infiltrate the CIA's network and, apparently, he was part of the lulzsec group. More can be read here. I don't think they're effectively down. It wasn't their site that was hacked, it was an alleged member (who claimed not to be part of them).
Oh, I see. Thanks for elaborating the subject. I think TeaMp0isoN's message pretty much summed it up. All of this unnecessary chaos they're causing and the fame they are trying to achieve is getting out of hand.
I think they are gone for good. I've heard two rumors as to why they had to leave. 1. Another underground hacking group is forcefully making them leave and threatening to expose their identity. 2. The UK did catch a member and now the others are fleeing. Still, they say it was just a 50 day dealer which sounds legit too. There's no telling.
