The Metropolitan Police claimed yesterday that they had arrested prominent Lulz Security and AnonOps member Topiary. The initial report claimed that a 19-year-old man was arrested in the Shetland Islands and was being flown down to London for questioning. That report has now been adjusted, saying that he was in fact an 18-year-old man. But there's a lot of speculation—some rather bombastic, other more reserved—that, however old this man actually is, there's one thing he isn't: Topiary.
Attempts to dox people—find out their real identities and publish their "documents" on the Web—have long been a tool in Anonymous' arsenal. Many people, whether they be animal abusers who've posted videos to YouTube or Sony executives and their families, have found themselves doxed after provoking Anonymous' wrath. Turn about is fair play, and so many groups who oppose Anonymous, and its high profile spin-off, Lulz Security, have attempted to dox members of that collective.
