Dont you know? We should be exploring our souls to seek the answers for why this is happening? Apparently according to their twitter feed it is because they want lizards on peopls foreheads........

Do you mean bloodborne?

Well... could be attention, you know? I mean, your suggestion was that we discuss 'Who Are These Mysterious Hackers? :O ' They've literally got their own TWITTER.

Because let's face it, if their plan is to 'destroy Sony,' they need bigger guns than what they've brought. DDoS strikes are annoying, and ties up servers while they are in effect, but they don't really do much in the way of permanent damage, and generally speaking won't linger around for longer than the folks are actively attacking. It doesn't hack into a server, so you can't steal data, it just clogs up all the traffic lanes so nobody else can get in. Unless the folks plan to keep the DDoS going for weeks, it'll be less of an inconvenience than the total blackout the PSN had during the genuine hacking incident, and the longer they DO keep them up, the more likely they're going to get tracked down, because they might as well be setting off a signal flare.

Whether they stop themselves, or have all their computers taken away from them in a week or two, the only net gain they'll have achieved is all kinds of people talking about them on the internet. Which is of course balanced against possible jail time/substantial fines/criminal record/god knows what else, so it would, actually, bring us to a legitimate 'These people are idiots.' That or they legitimately, outright dislike Sony, and have decided to risk jail time etc, etc, etc just to pester their servers for a few days or so, in which case, yeah, still idiots. o.O

Now, if they actually are shown to HAVE retrieved data- keep in mind we only have the word of one of these guys, and if 'getting attention' is the name of the game, they'd have every reason to claim otherwise- then we'd have to see what they got to determine if what they retrieved is worth all this effort. If they got something like credit card numbers, or even account info, okay, successful job. If they got surface-level, low-security chaff, then still idiots. xP

PSN is back.

lol

wow

you must have entirelly missed the movie's point

nor the us and certain european countries for that matter who bomb innocent women and children in a far greater number

When the author of the book himself has come out and said that people like you took away from the story the exact opposite of what he intended, then yes, you missed the point. As did many Fight club watchers.

NO. I think this is terrible. I was laughing at the guys above who were figthing.

Hopefully they slip up and get some court time

So the guy who is arguing we should intelligently reach their battered souls to find their message thinks they posted an ISIS picture as a literal explanation. You realize theyre comparing their work to that of insurgents. Its allegory.

For fucks sake youre not helping your case here.

If they had meaning and message they wouldnt be so cavalier about things like that. It proves they dont justify any understanding or sympathy.
