How Did Anonymous Attackers Steal Apple UDIDs?

> "Hackers aren't necessarily smart, but operate from a set of well-known principles, Graham said. "If I have an e-mail list of victims, and a new 0day appears, I'm immediately going to phish with it. It's not Chinese uber APT hackers, it's just monkeys mindless following a script," he said."

Define "hacker" and "smart." This is a mostly-useless article with little-to-no actual information in it. Oh, but the title claims to say how Anon stole Apple UDIDs, so now its on the front page of HN.

It's entirely plausible that antisec could have obtained the Apple UDIDs elsewhere, as part of an orchestrated attempt to embarrass the FBI.

But its also possible that the FBI is simply in deny mode, which isn't surprising considering it's the FBI. Either way you look at it, Apple UDIDs were stolen somehow; the data did not magically pop out of thin air.
