Investigators found a file implicating the "hacktivist" group Anonymous in the security breach that led to the theft of the personal details of more than 100 million online gamers, electronics company Sony has told the US Congress.
Are you having trouble accessing Sony’s Playstation Network? Well, you’re not the only one. Users have been confirming that they cannot access the store or any of the networks other feature.
The hackers that claimed to be responsible for the attacks on Xbox Live and the Playstation Network over the holidays were arrested today.
This is insane.. they should be freed. Hacking needs to be promoted.. if you keep doing this next thing you know your Country is left with no hacking talent and countries like North "C"orea will keep attacking or hacking your stuff.
Ddos'ing a gamling network for "Lulz" isnt exactly white hat material. Neither is selling destructive Services.
Don't give them a "Get Out of Jail Free" card for their expertise!!!
Throw them in solitary confinement and weld the door shut!
The attacks on the online game console services Xbox Live and Playstation Network that started Christmas day and reverberated for days thereafter may have been a marketing ploy by the group behind the attacks. Lizard Squad has announced that the software it used to bring the services down is now "up for sale", effectively allowing anybody the opportunity to attack other services and websites.
If Lizard Squad is so stupid to think that other people will pay for something that most people can get for free... I guess they are even stupider than I thought.
Publicity? To sell the software? Can you earn money from jail?
Anonymous did warn them me 1 million others and Sony didn't believe them and look what they did.
usually its just pizza and stuff but wow
"What is becoming more and more evident is that Sony has been the victim of a very carefully planned, very professional, highly sophisticated criminal cyber-attack designed to steal personal and credit card information for illegal purposes,"
doesn't seem like them... but eh it will be the biggest thing they ever accomplished if this is true. Alot of companies will grow to fear them.
