Forums - Sony Discussion - Anonymous stops attack on PSN (doesn't want to harm customers)

Fun little update by Ars.  Sony doesn't seem too worried about the attacks.

Around the Network

Anon is basically trying to denie Sony their right to go to court. As someone with a firm believe in democracy there is no way I can support that.

Uh, from the little I know, the majority of members of anonymous are either full time students or employed in pretty decent jobs. It's just /b/ that is full of unemployed neckbeards. Stuff like this is done in their free time.

 

On topic, it's good to see them changing tack, this is the first anon OP I have thought was doing more harm than good. The damage to consumers is as high in such a situation as in the DDoS on those refusing to carry donations to wikileaks, but the injustice in this case in orders of magnitude smaller than in the wikileaks case.
