They're hardly making they're point. All I wanted to do was unwind by playing dust with some friends and I can't because they thought they were proving a point that some corporations have Lkax security. Sweet. |

Honestly, I'd have preferred if they had a real reason.
Like they wanted to steal all the credit card info or something...
It would feel better than 'for the lulz".

Good job PSN and Xbox for being literally ret*rded and NOT hiring convicted ciriminals.
Edit:

Wonder why.

They are right in a sense, but I wish it didn't take THIS to show Microsoft and Sony that they may want to do things a bit differently. Watching Netflix with the boys until Sony gets some real skill in the building.

If I'm not mistaken, Sony did hire the guy that kept on breaking into the PSP. Dude wasn't a felon though, they didn't press charges, they just made part of his contract say that he would no longer attempt to distribute cracks to the public.

Honestly though, what stupid fuckin' excuses.
You're not gonna say, "That lady shoulda' taken self defense classes and she wouldn't have gotten raped. Maybe if she had hired a convicted rapist as a bodyguard she wouldn't have been raped in the first place."
I mean seriously, committing a crime "just cause I could" and "Why weren't they prepared against my focused and calculated attack" is like saying "She shouldn't have been wearing such seductive clothes, or else I woulda' been able to control myself." Where do these guys even put their morals?
I would pay large amounts of money to see the smile spread on Big Bubba Ray the cellmates face after he was told what crime Kiddy hacker Ken got sent to his cell for.

sucks for all the 6-10 year olds that couldn't play minecraft on their first console.
But otherwise?
We will all get better servers, bandwidth and infrastructure out of sony and Microsoft for their console networks moving forward.

This is a dumb thought train. We won't get stronger servers, what they were DDOSing was the login and really low capacity gateways into the network. For normal traffic they work great. Their security is solid for the most part but when you send millions of requests all at once over and over..... **** lizard squad and their holier than thou attitude. These dudes are just straight up douchebags and they will get what they deserve. |

Uh...yeah. They did this because they could. Simple as that.
There are a lot of things I could do right now. I could go outside right now and put sugar in the gas tank of every automobile in the parking lot.
I could set a neighbor's house on fire with gasoline and a cigarette lighter.
I could pick a person at random, take a bunch of pictures of them, apply a fake name to that person, and turn this information in to every missing person's bureau in every state in the U.S. and watch the chaos ensue.
But I don't do any of them. Why? They're morally wrong and at least two of them are crimes.
These guys think they are aiding some greater good with this. They may or may not honestly believe that by showing that they can bring down these systems, that they will somehow motivate Sony and Microsoft to "smarten up" and make their systems more secure. Well, I hate to break it to these hackers, but the PSN and XBOX Live services were working just fine until the hackers brought the systems down.
Of course, that's not an excuse for the down time either. Both companies should be more diligent in maintaining their systems. I remember the aftermath of the 2011 PSN attack. Sony officials in Japan were required to publically apologize and bow to the crowd as they did so. In Japan, that kind of stuff is a sign of shame and people there really want to avoid having to perform this act. It was that serious. However, the number of times the same thing has happened since makes me wonder if these same people have been quietly removed from their positions. They used to call it "being given a window seat" where you were reassigned to some side office and never given any kind of responsibility again.
But again, things were working until the hackers took it down. Just because you can commit a crime does not mean you should. And while it's somewhat amusing to read the arrogance these guys have about being caught, even if they are caught, what will happen to them? Will they do a little jail time? Maybe. But it won't be for any serious length of time. Pay a fine? Probably. But it's doubtful that any fine levied against them would recoup any real losses. The bottom line is that any punishment they received would amount to nothing more than a slap on the wrist. The legal systems just do not consider computer hacking that much of an offense. It would probably cost the tax payers more to put them on trial than anything that would possibly happen to them.
What I would like to personally see happen is a scenario where another hacker group, who quickly tires of not being able to play their games, seeks out and locates the "lizard boys" and loudly dishes out their own brand of justice. One that the courts could not or would not ever consider. We'd see who was smiling then. Alas, it won't happen and the hackers will continue their lawl's and la's until they make a mistake big enough for the authorities to find them and do...not much.
What really annoys me about all of it is that now, I have to start all over again maxing out my login bonuses because the network being down has caused me to skip a day.
I guess what I'm really saying here is this: until hackers who do things like this face very, very, very, very deadly consequences for their activities, they will continue. And giving them security jobs afterwards is not the deterrent needed.

Reading through the interview, it's obvious they're scared shitless. They know they're going to get caught and they're trying to put some 'Heroic' spin on it.
As long as they know to keep a firm grip on the soap they'll be fine.
