LulzSec were an international hacking crew and today marks 5 years since the end of their most well-known campaign: the “50 Days of Lulz”.

They were a hacking crew spread across the planet taking down websites for the lulz. The members were Sabu, Pwnsauce, Tflow, Topiary, Kayla, Avunit, Viral, and a few others who were involved to lesser degrees. The members of LulzSec. Five years ago they set sail on an uneasy and brutal ocean: the Internet. Their mission? To laugh at the security of major organisations around the world. They exposed corporations, governments, often the general population itself, and quite possibly everything in between, just because they could.
