I recognize the second image, it's from the videogame Fallout 3. Hopefully they're playing, since it has a post-apocalyptic setting...

I couldn't think of a better way to make any possibility of the slightest bit of internet anonymity a thing of the past.

I'm not understanding the objective and I'm sure there are others like me. I'm guessing this is either a honeypot or a vaporware distraction from the more left-wing anarchists in the group.

Don't know about the lingo, "vaporware"? "honeypot"?

But the NASDAQ got hacked earlier this year. Supposedly, just for a look around.

Apparently the hackers didn't tamper with anything, but it's also unclear whether all holes are plugged, so who knows. Some of the breaches can be traced to Russia, but that doesn't mean the hackers were Russian

Die Hard 4 (plot similar to this malarkey) sucked. This hoax sucks even harder.
