Mikko Hypponen, Chief Research Officer (CRO), F-Secure and a respected security expert believes the 18 year old Metropolitan Police arrested in Shetland Islands is Topiary, the supposed spokesman for Anonymous and LulzSec!
The information is based on the conversation Mikko had with a user @testbeta on twitter.
The said user testbeta sent out a public question to @mikkohypponen saying:
@mikkohypponen do you think the guy they arrested in Shetland is really the Topiary, the LulzSec and Anonymous member?
@testbeta
testbeta
to which Mikko replied Yes!
The 18 years old was arrested at his home in Yell, a small island in the Shetland Islands and was transferred to London for questioning!
Mikko however didn’t tell how he concluded that the 18 years old Jake Davis is indeed “Topiary” aka “Gardenslayer”, the spokesperson for Lulzsec and Anonymous! Topiary appearing as Anonymous phoned in a radio show via Skype and hacked into the sites of Westboro Baptist Church and posted a message under downloads on the website!
Jake Davis
Topiary and the groups LulzSec and Anonymous are wanted for taking down Sony’s Play Station Network (PSN) and several sites including those of UK and US agencies
