Hackers targeted Stratfor, a global intelligence company, but it was unclear Sunday evening whether the breach and apparent release of credit card information was the work of the group Anonymous.
In a posting on the website Pastebin, hackers said they released Stratfor subscriber data, including information on 4,000 credit cards as well as the company's "private client" list. The posting cited AntiSec, a web-based collaboration with the activist hacking groups Anonymous and LulzSec.
U.S.-based Stratfor, which provides independent analysis of international affairs and security threats, sent an e-mail to subscribers on Sunday: "On December 24th an unauthorized party disclosed personally identifiable information and related credit card data of some of our members. We have reason to believe that your personal and credit card data could have been included in the information that was illegally obtained and disclosed."

FREE BRADLEY MANNING! Do not allow the continued imprisonment of an intellectual freedom fighter. This man is no more a criminal than was Daniel Ellsberg. He merely allowed the free observation of the hypocrisy of governments and their "diplomatic" services. If governments have a problem with being exposed as liars and hypocrites, then stop lying and being hypocrites! "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice every where."
i think that the aliens are amoung us and are running things..
