Ask HN: How to explain LulzSec in layman?

Posted by JacobIrwin on Thursday June 23, 2011 @10:19PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I was trying to explain to a non-CS friend the other day exactly what LulzSec is?

Hackers? Security? Radical futurists?

Thoughts...?

You should start with what they actually understand. Do they think LulzSec is a bunch of social parasites with too much time and tech knowledge? Build on and/or correct what they think.
