#1 Suspected Anonymous Hacker Busted By FBI — Thanks To A Racy Photo
04-15-2012, 03:56 PM
HOUSTON (CBS Houston) - The evidence that the Federal Bureau of Investigations gathered against an alleged Galveston hacker didn’t come from a techno-chase through the expansive Internet. Instead, the FBI used the information embedded in a photograph of his girlfriend’s breasts.
Higinio O. Ochoa, 30, is a Linux administrator by day, but by night he’s accused of being part of the group “CabinCr3w,” an affiliate of the hacktivist organization Anonymous.
According to Gizmodo, Ochoa allegedly used the Twitter handle @Anonw0rmer to link to a site boasting personal information on law enforcement officials, along with a picture of a young women in a low-cut shirt that read, “PwNd by w0rmer & CabinCr3w.”
The FBI found the image in February and checked the exchangeable image file format, or EXIF data, for evidence. EXIF data is information that a digital camera imprints onto an image.
This particular image’s EXIF data revealed that it came from an iPhone near Melbourne, Australia, which then led the FBI to Ochoa’s Facebook page.
The page featured other images of the girl, who turned out to be his girlfriend.
On March 20, the FBI stormed Ochoa’s apartment and arrested him. He was held at the FBI’s Houston branch a $50,000 bail was posted.
The FBI alleges that, in addition to the violation of police officer’s privacy, Ochoa also hacked the County of Houston’s website.
“[He] created fake events on their online, posted images representing Anonymous and CabinCr3w, deleted the entire administrator accounts except the one created by the attacker,” the FBI detailed to Gizmodo.
The FBI also said that Ochoa also leaked personal information of Goldman Sachs executives last September.

I'd know that pair anywhere!Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness;
Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

They are going to lock him in a room and force him to talk. I'd pay to watch that. He should be treated the same as any other terrorist including incarceration at Gitmo.

You would pay money to watch someone waterboarded for being suspected of the crime of hacking a county website? And presumably deny him a trial, because that's how you treat terrorists. You're not big on civil liberties, are you?

Typical liberal response. The guy is a terrorist no different than Al Qaeda. They use bombs, he uses a computer. This guy and his butt buddies at Anonymous are responsible for hacking incidents that have cost some companies millions of dollars. Sony for one. And, yes, I'd pay to see him waterboarded. Hell, I'd pour the water, until he gives up his compatriots. You, of course, champion his cause.

And considering that this is your best response just goes to show that with you libs, when you're losing an argument you resort to ad hominem attacks and name calling. So tell me, if you caught a member of Al Qaeda, what do you do with him? Well, Anonymous is a terrorist group just as dangerous and one was just arrested. He gets treated accordingly.
