Myspace: Who Is Watching The Detectives?
It’s well known that law enforcement, security researchers and groups that track down / remove pedophiles, trolls and crapflooders from Myspace spend a lot of time networking, watching profiles, tracking dubious individuals through their postings, friends lists and other things too numerous to mention.
It’s a tricky business, and can potentially place people like myself at great risk of being found out, exposed or run over the coals if one of these bad guys works out you’ve been trailing them for the past three months.
What happens, though, when the bad guys have a method to know exactly who is watching them? And what are the consequences?

MySpace hacker tells his story
Have you ever heard of Samy Kamkar? Well, he is the first person to do a large scale MySpace hacking. On January 2007, he confessed that he created what many people consider one the most sophisticated Web 2.0 worm. The worm is widely known as the “Samy Worm”. Even thought the worm wasn’t malicious it did cause a hell lot of trouble to MySpace. MySpace had to be shutdown in the late2005 after the Samy worm managed to swarm to over 1 millions users to declare Samy a “here” on each of their profile.
No that’s what I call wicked 
Till now, Samy is not allowed to touch a computer but if he play his card right…he may be allowed to visit MySpace again. This time I hope he doesn’t do anything stupid :p

It has been going on for months (since last year).
The latest backdoor exploit news has been rapidly circulating on their message boards and a massive 17 GigaByte (GB) file that contains more than 500 thousand private images has been circulating in BitTorrent and Warez Forum…making this the biggest security breach ever!
There are several articles mentioning this exploits/breaches:
