UPDATE: HOLY SHIT 4CHANARCHIVE HAS GONE 404! V&?
UPDATE: HOLY SHIT WIKILEAKS IS DOWN!
UPDATE: HOLY SHIT ALL WIKILEAKS MIRRORS ARE DOWN!
UPDATE: HOLY SHIT WHAT IS THIS?

I am sure you have all heard of how Anonymous delivered again this news by now.

[sarcasm] Yes, I have heard about the great Anonymous 'hack' of the century and you can stop spamming my inbox right about now, thanks! [/sarcasm]

However, that story is boring.

If you want the juicy details about it all, I suggest this link. At least all the people finding this blog by searching for 'Anonymous hackers' have something more interesting to read than boring tl;dr stories from so-called 'reputable news sources', AMIRITE?

A snippet from the pastebin link:

Hello, /b/ as many of you might already know, last night sarah palin’s yahoo was “hacked” and caps were posted on /b/, i am the lurker who did it, and i would like to tell the story.

In the past couple days news had come to light about palin using a yahoo mail account, it was in news stories and such, a thread was started full of newfags trying to do something that would not get this off the ground, for the next 2 hours the acct was locked from password recovery presumably from all this bullshit spamming.

after the password recovery was reenabled, it took seriously 45 mins on wikipedia and google to find the info, Birthday? 15 seconds on wikipedia, zip code? well she had always been from wasilla, and it only has 2 zip codes (thanks online postal service!)

the second was somewhat harder, the question was “where did you meet your spouse?” did some research, and apparently she had eloped with mister palin after college, if youll look on some of the screenshits that I took and other fellow anon have so graciously put on photobucket you will see the google search for “palin eloped” or some such in one of the tabs.

I found out later though more research that they met at high school, so I did variations of that, high, high school, eventually hit on “Wasilla high” I promptly changed the password to popcorn and took a cold shower…

this is all verifiable if some anal /b/tard wants to think Im a troll, and there isn’t any hard proof to the contrary, but anyone who had followed the thread from the beginning to the 404 will know I probably am not, the picture I posted this topic with is the same one as the original thread.

I read though the emails… ALL OF THEM… before I posted, and what I concluded was anticlimactic, there was nothing there, nothing incriminating, nothing that would derail her campaign as I had hoped, all I saw was personal stuff, some clerical stuff from when she was governor…. And pictures of her family

I then started a topic on /b/, peeps asked for pics or gtfo and I obliged, then it started to get big

Earlier it was just some prank to me, I really wanted to get something incriminating which I was sure there would be, just like all of you anon out there that you think there was some missed opportunity of glory, well there WAS NOTHING, I read everything, every little blackberry confirmation… all the pictures, and there was nothing, and it finally set in, THIS internet was serious business, yes I was behind a proxy, only one, if this shit ever got to the FBI I was fucked, I panicked, i still wanted the stuff out there but I didn’t know how to rapidshit all that stuff, so I posted the pass on /b/, and then promptly deleted everything, and unplugged my internet and just sat there in a comatose state

Then the white knight fucker came along, and did it in for everyone, I trusted /b/ with that email password, I had gotten done what I could do well, then passed the torch , all to be let down by the douchebaggery, good job /b/, this is why we cant have nice things

OH SHI--

I hope to Xenu that whoever did this is was behind seven proxies.

Disregard that, did you really think that seven proxies would stop the partyvan? That kid is fucked.

On a more serious note, Wikileaks (where the screenshots of the e-mails were posted by Anonymous) is down. What the flying fuck?

However, screenshots are all over the internet by now, and OH MY GOD HOW DID THIS GET HERE?

This is the 'white knight' who BAWWWWWed and changed the password in order to help Palin. However, he did not blank out the password when posting it on /b/ (of all places). Some /b/tards then apparently proceeded to have more lulz with the new password, making his whole valiant effort an EPIC FAIL.

What the fuck, kid? Why did you have to fail this badly? Or...did you do it on purpose for the lulz? Were you just trolling? Sometimes I can't believe that people are that stupid.

*facepalm*

More screenshots:


Eh. This shit really is boring.

However, considering the fact this blog is, well, this blog...here is a more interesting screenshot. (More interesting than Palin's inbox, that is.)

From /r9k/:


I was just about to refer all of you to 4chanarchive as the relevant threads have been deleted, but 4chanarchive has gone 404.

Wait...

>4CHANARCHIVE HAS GONE 404
>HAS GONE 404
>GONE 404
>404

Is this Catnarok? Is this it? Is this the great V& of the Chans? Is this the end of the internet as we know it? Is this the beginning of the end of free speech?

What about the idea that information should be free?

Somebody hold me, please.
