Hackers hit Foxconn, but not because of worker conditions

PCWorld:

The user names and passwords clipped from Foxconn on Wednesday can be used to place fraudulent orders from the company’s clients, the hackers said in a statement accompanying a torrent file containing the stolen data. Foxconn has taken its services site offline.

The group, Swaggsec, said that they didn’t do this as a result of working conditions at Foxconn factories (contrary to earlier reports). Instead, it looks like they did it just because they could.
