Hackers grab Goldman CEO's personal data

Goldman Sachs chairman and chief executive officer Lloyd Blankfein

Hackers today released personal information for Goldman Sachs Chief Executive Officer Lloyd Blankfein.

The document, posted to the Pastebin Web site, includes the CEO's age, recent addresses, details of litigation he has been involved in, as well as registration information for businesses, but no sensitive information such as financial data.

Goldman Sachs representatives did not immediately respond to a call seeking comment.

A group using the handle "CabinCr3w" took credit for the data dump, but did not say why Blankfein was targeted. Goldman Sachs benefited from the U.S. government's bailout of insurance giant American International Group and is accused of practices that contributed to the economic crisis.

Anonymous exposes info of alleged pepper spray cop

who is seen in videos spraying pepper spray into the faces of women protesters who are penned behind a police barricade net at the "Occupy Wall Street" demonstrations. The officer, identified as Deputy Inspector Anthony Bologna via videos and close-up photos of his face and name on his badge, appears to walk over to the group of women and spray them directly in the face unprovoked.

Wall Street protests spread

A case of false arrest and civil rights violations is pending against Bologna in a claim brought by a protester involved in the 2004 demonstrations at the Republican National Convention, The Guardian reported.

New York Police representatives have not responded to a CNET request for comment on the pepper spray allegations, but told The New York Times that the pepper spraying was appropriate and alleged that the video was edited, a claim that legal advocacy group USLaw.com, which analyzed the video in slow motion, denies.

In a Tweet yesterday, CabinCr3w says "To the people asking...we are part of anonymous [SIC] just a group of like minded people taking on the world."

Hundreds of people have camped out in Zuccotti Park and 1,000 or more, including filmmaker Michael Moore and actress Susan Sarandon, have joined in protests and street marches as part of the Occupy Wall Street movement. The group, whose protests are in their second week, is calling for an end to the "monied corruption of our democracy" in the U.S. and is borrowing a page from the Arab Spring uprisings that overturned several regimes earlier this year.

The Occupy Wall Street organizers claim that the protests are spreading to more than 50 U.S. cities and span at least three continents.

Well, better someone than me break the law. I would never support it or say it is a good idea. However, our government and media are obviously doing nothing about this. The police are obviously 100% on their side. It looks like they can live in secret no more.

I'd like to see the hackers go after the sleazy credit "reporting" agencies and the slimebag sites that sell everyone's personal data. I'm sure it would make millions of people smile.

Now that we know this thiefs address maybe we should all go to his house for dinner, etc. It's the least he can do for us for stealing so much money from all of us thru the mortage fraud.

Cops protecting the banksters and attacking freedom of speech and assembly. Is this America or a police state? Corporations or Goldman have taken over our govt and country. Its time to take the country back from these crooks.

Due to extreme paranoia in the populace, brought on by the media, it is more like a police state these days.

Cops everywhere in the world have ALWAYS worked for the status-quo, sometimes they work for for the safety of the public. Anyone remember the batons, firehoses and attack dogs on civil rights protesters in the '60s? In 1937 the U.S. military governor to Puerto Rico ordered police to fire on men, women and children during a peaceful political demonstration, resulting in the death of 17 and wounding of 235 unarmed civilians. During WWII police rounded up law-abiding citizens and holed them up in prison camps for no other reason than their Japanese descent, yet many folks like this assisted the U.S. war effort as translators and intelligence interpretors as well as infantrymen and spies. In Germany law enforcement regularly cooperated with the Gestapo in the persecution of native Germans who verbally opposed the NAZI regime, it all goes under the excuse of "following orders", folks.

Welcome to the new paradigm! After the un-patriot act, and the sacrifice of our rights of privacy and uncounted infringements upon our liberty, it should be expected that what's good for the goose is good for the gander - so don't be surprised. If "governments" can simply sweep aside our right to privacy, then the same may be done to them and others who support their "financial Ponzi scheme" (the international financial and banking system).

These crooks need to be arrested, brought to justice and taken off the streets before they do any more damage to the people. They have committed crimes against humanity and need to be prosecuted. They manipulate all the corrupt politicians, contibute to the war machinery, and to the suffering of millions, not just here in the U.S. but aroung the globe. Thank you CabinCr3w for your excellent work and keep it up.

@milkcowblues, I disagree, not because what your saying is wrong but because I don't know who the hell "These crooks" is, are you talking about the protesters, the cops, the Politicians, the bussiness men, seriously Explain who your talking about, No one here can read your mind

The lies will come in fast and furious fashion from those that are protecting the criminals that have stolen everything from us, including our Democracy.
