So the FBI thinks they have Anon/Lulzsec by the balls...
I will flat out state, I am no hacker... Not even a part of either group... But to be honest, if the FBI thinks they got Anonymous/Lulzsec by the balls because of Sadu outting several people, I think they are sadly mistaken.
While Anonymous is by no means a solidarity group, they are much like a 'cell' group over time. Thinktank wise on my part, the smarter hackers would not be so readily sharing some of their information with others. From what was mentioned also is that one of the Anon types was approached by Sadu to do something with a bounty attached. While I am sure there are many hackers who would love to do it for the money, the fact that some of the tactics have been announced and even more so, this information is leaked out, it will further make said groups to do the following:
1) Distrust people - less collaboration, which would be a plus in making it harder for cooperative efforts of hackers.
2) Make it harder to locate dangerous hackers - With any 'hunt', you have people going to ground or finding more illicit ways to make sure that they are harder to find. This news will encourage smarter ones to dig in and wait it out. During that time, find better ways to return their style of justice in another way, most likely a more destructive way.
3) The old Hydra Motto, 'Cut one head, 2 more grow in its place' - The concept of cutting the 'head' off any organization is an old one, but it seems people also forget that while it would be ideal, some groups and organizations do create 'fallback' plans. And while Anon or Lulzsec is not a defined 'organization'... The typical power vacuum has always been filled with others.
