Hacker collective of the moment LulzSec has just released a torrent of
data it claims to belong to Arizona law enforcement, in what it calls
“Operation Chinga La Migra” (or literally translated ”Fuck the border
patrol”).

I’m still downloading the 446MB torrent that they claim contains
hundreds of classified documents including personal emails, names and
phone numbers. I’ve confirmed by phone that at least one of the
addresses posted in the initial release belongs to someone who works
in the Arizona police department.

The hacker group says that the Arizona Department of Public Safety was
targeted specifically because of the controversial SB 1070 law, which
is currently the strictest anti-immigration measure in the US and
requires Arizona immigrants to carry registration documents at all
times.
