US federal authorities charged a Reuters social media editor March 15 with conspiring with the hacktivist group Anonymous to break into and alter an online Los Angeles Times article. Matthew Keys, 26, was indicted in California on 3 counts of felonies related to hacking before his current Reuters post. He faces up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. According to the federal grand jury indictment in Sacramento, Keys provided Anonymous members with login credentials to a computer server belonging to Tribune Co., which owns the Times, in December 2010 and told them to “go fuck some shit up.” A hacker then used the credentials provided by Keys to log into the Tribune server, and ultimately made changes to the online version of a Los Angeles Times news story.
