Well Lulzsec apparently decided to play a prank on Canada. Today Lulzsec hacked the Conservative Party website. For those of you who don't know the Conservative Party leader Stephen Harper was recently elected Prime Minister of Canada. The prank was huge a Lulzsec hacker hacked the sites news feed and decided to prank the whole country.
The hacker decided to write a false story saying that Prime Minister Stephen Harper choked on a hashbrown during his morning breakfast. The article claimed he was rushed to a Toronto hospital. The fake news spread all across the country with many being totally freaked out. Canada's state news agency CBC was quick to refute the story showing video of the Prime Minister in the House of commons.
So while the story was quickly shot down it seems Lulzsec really did pull the wool over many peoples eyes scaring quite a few and leading to the Government having to prove the Prime Minister was okay. So not only has Lulzsec attacked Sony and other major companies like recently Nintendo. They attacked the US FBI and now they attack the Government of Canada through the Conservative Party website.
I gotta say I never fell for it as CBC was very quick to put an end to the story. It seems the prank worked and hahahahaha Lulzsec you single handedly scared a whole country. Whats next Obama is a Kenyan officially announced on the White House website? Now that would be funny!
What do you think, the hack never really caused any damage it just scared the crap out of a ton of Canada. Is this funny? Do you think Lulzsec will attack another Government? Will we be hearing more fake news released across the globe? Whats your take on this hack?
