While the news has been leaking to the media throughout the day on Saturday, according to a New York Times report the IMF had told its staff and its board of directors about the hacking on Wednesday. The attack which was described as sophisticated and serious took place over the last several months.

Will this ever get to Wikileaks? :D

I think that anything that weakens the financial establishment is good for Bitcoins.

“The next Pearl Harbor we confront could very well be a cyber attack that cripples our power systems, our grid, our security systems, our financial systems, our governmental systems,” -CIA Director Leon Panetta

I hope you gentlemen are ready for an October surprise.

I would love to see these anonymous guys fighting a real war. Their idealistic cause doesn't help anybody. Those people got rich because of hard work. Just like what everyone wants to accomplish and has the right to accomplish

what a joke!

IMF's so-called "secret data" was NOT encrypted at all.

This event probably
like "killing cucumbers from Europe" and Stross-Kahn accident
all are smoke and mirrors in attempt to hide REAL news.

Such as a meeting of world  tycoons in Swiss right now
 debating how to get their big a$$es from the trap at small people
 expense.

The Bilderberg conference isn't some freemasonic league of evil like certain conspiracy nuts like to believe.

Hell, most of the participants are ordinary ministers and elected officials who have next to no wealth and live normal lives besides their work (or even had no power at all before their work in business or politics).

Sure, there's Bernanke and some billionaire tycoons. But most of them are quite plain. There's even a few guys from universities.
The attendee list is completely public and can be viewed online.

Wrong. Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong.

The IMF chiefs got rich by dint of their connections and their ability to exploit poorer countries. I doesn't take much work to be usurious. All you really need is a dearth of conscience.
