'Lizard Squad's' Paid Cyberattack Service, Faces a Hack of its Own

'Lizard Squad' is apparently Getting a Taste of its Own Medicine. Security Guru, Brian Krebs, has Learned that, Someone Hacked 'Lizard Stresser', the Cyberattack-for-Hire Service that 'Lizard Squad' Launched following its Takedowns of the PLAYSTATION Network and XBox LIVE. The Breach Exposed the Project's Customer Database, which was Ironically Stored in Plain Text -- Unless Clients Change their Passwords, they're about as Vulnerable as the Websites they Paid to Take Down. This Attack Doesn't Make Things Right (it's just as Illegal, Afterall) but, Something Tells us that, Law Enforcement Isn't in a Rush to Catch the Perpetrators. If Anything, it's More Interested in the Less-than-Innocent Victims.
