PSN suffering widespread issues as a result of DDOS attack - Service slowly returning to normal

[Serious_frusting]

a ddos attack is hardly experts at work lol

Confuses me why people would do this. unless its to overload the server to course it to create errors so they are able to more easily find a vulnerability that they can exploit. But the server being overloaded kind of defeats the purpose because it is not like the person or group behind it is going to be able to access server whilst its offline.
