I haven't been interested in computer security in quite a few years so some of this might be out of date: It is a loose movement that kind of fights against the traditional for-profit computer security industry. they think that publicizing security holes and those hole's exploits causes more pain than it helps. They also seem to be kind of anti-capitalist. A bunch of docs have been written about their goals and ideas. They aren't really script kiddies, some of them are very talented security researchers. google around for the el8 magazine, also 'phrack high council' or just antisec in general
