Two LulzSec hackers may soon learn that it’s easier to break into government databases than it is to break out of jail. Ryan Cleary, 19, and Jake Davis, 18, on Monday both pleaded guilty in a London court to charges that they attacked both government websites and major commercial websites, the BBC reports. The two men, both citizens of the United Kingdom, admitted to hacking into the Pentagon, the CIA, the U.K.’s National Health Service, News International, PBS, Sony, Nintendo and the 20th Century Fox film studio. Both men, however, pleaded not guilty to more serious charges that they “unlawfully obtained confidential computer data” and posted it on popular hacker hubs such as LulzSec.com and Pirate Bay. A trial for those charges has been set for April 2013, the BBC reports.
