Hacker group abruptly calls it quits

A publicity-seeking hacker group that has left a trail of sabotaged websites over the last two months, including attacks on law enforcement agencies and releases of private data, said unexpectedly June 25 it is dissolving itself.

LulzSec made its announcement through its Twitter account. It gave no reason for the disbandment, but it could be a sign of nerves in the face of law enforcement investigations. Rival hackers have also joined in the hunt, releasing information they say could point to the identities of the six-member group.

LulzSec claimed hacks on major entertainment companies, FBI partner organizations, the CIA, the U.S. Senate and a pornography website. The term "lulz" is Internet jargon for "laughs." (AP)
