The outlook for internet freedoms appears quite doomy over the next few years. Although in this case LulzSec doesn't appear to have done anything other than highlight security failings stories like this, along with the various doings of Anonymous and any other similar groups or individuals, can easily be exploited by politicians to advocate for a Chinese-style censorship regime and an end to net neutrality. Any hint that medical records might have been compromised would cause considerable public fear and alarm, which could then be channelled for political purposes.
