You guys like these hackers ? PSN experiencing difficulties.

Who in the world supports these morons ? Anonomys group of hackers are targeting Sony because of GeoHot and the other guy. So now PSN is experiencing difficulties and people cant log in or get extreme lag while playing games. They are really hurting US gamers the most because we are the ones that are suffering! Because of Geo there are tons of cheaters now and people playing with their modded PS3's and pirating games like no tommorow and there are people here that still defend these a holes.http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/04/playstation-websites-psn-suffer-outage-anonymous-claims-respon/ and Ananomys claims responsibility.

theres a huge thread about this

They should get a new hobby

I can support the reason why they are doing it, but there's no way I can support the fact that what they are doing is illegal. I'll put it that way.

Applying your logic to another situation, you think it's the fault of Islam and all Muslims for the acts of a few terrorists?

What happened to free pizza and porn? :c

I'm sorry but Sony brought it on themselves. I don't support them but that's the truth.GeneralShowzer

Defending your hardware and software is bad. Ayup that makes perfect sense.

If they didn't hackers would just continue destroying their business.

they couldnt face the sunlight to go out and get a pizza so got angry at the real world and attacked sony cause they have a convenient excuse :P

Seriously think these Anon guys need to actually get out more instead of doing things like this in the name of their cause its rather lame and only just brings more hatred towards them.

I rarely play MPs and just go online to check on the PSN store every thursday... but I guess this is not cool at all.

And then we have the peeps who wonder why most of us are against Geo :roll:

Cosign, sony did this to themselves

Since when has this affected the actual important bits of PSN (ie gaming and the in-console store)? From what I've read (inlcuding the TC's own link) the ddos is just screwing with the PSN websites (ie playstation.com and the like).

as opposed to whats happening now?

their legal antics have done nothing to help resecure their platform... they tried to intimidate hackers, which ultimately accomplished nothing other than making more hackers PO'd.

I lol'd and knew right away what the probable cause was, When i tried to log in. Good for sony if its true that they are being hacked. I am AOK with it.

its causing problems with signing it and its doing my egg in.All i want to do is login and see if my mate's alright after last night cause she lost her phone at the gig we were at :S totally doing my nut in.

Still think they need to find something better to do with their time, instead of they keyboard warrior nonsense.

If sony didnt lie to customers and take out aspects of teh ps3 that alot of people bought the ps3 for then they would not be having this problem, period.

I have a ton of friends who dont pirate videogames, buy all there games yet they are very pissed because sony took away aspects of the ps3 that were advertised and originally in the ps3.

Sucks that this is causing problems but this is sonys fault and they are paying for it now.

Meanwhile, at PSN headquarters, the techs seem to be isolating the cause.

Sony is the only knuckleheads in this situtation. Taking aspects of hte ps3 away from people who bought the ps3 just for those features? Come on now you are just making yourself look bad. Alot of peopel bought the ps3 for features that sony was advertising that the ps3 had. Then they take them away out of nowhere? Of ocurse there was going to be concequences for there actions.

If you go to a restaurant and you order a meal on the menu that has this and that in it.. then when you get the meal none of those things are in it... false advertisement. You order a steak with potatoes and shrimp, yet they only give you the potatoes and take out the shrimp/steak right before you are about to eat.

The stuff sony took out might nto mean alot to me or you, but to people who paid 400-500$ just for those features that sony said you could use this is a slap in the face.

Or what about buying a car and seeing all its features that it has in it.. only for the car dealership to come over to your house and take out say teh stereo, the breaks, air conditioning,etc... If you saw these features in an ad and they were taken away from you, I am sure you would be pissed.

Once again it sucks its casue issues for me and others on PSN and soem websites, but this is sonys fault...

I support Sony a lot but I also support the little guy against big corporate conglomerates that can steal from users legally while no one can steal from them without being treated as a criminal. So I support anonymous here even if I can't play on PSn for a couple of weeks.kuraimen

it sucks even more because a bunch of nerdy keyboard warriors have basically disrupted my enjoyment of the console...altho we are talkin bout the retard's who uploaded porn to youtube,basically sent pornography to a guys house cause he ran something called the no cussing club and various other things..Linux didnt have a high adopt rate and people were more vthan allowed to not upgrade firmware if they wished to keep linux so dunno why people are so pissy.

How anyone can say what they do is right i dont know..its just disruptive,going to cause more rigid and tight security in the feature and only going to annoy sony even more essentialyl exaccerbating the whole situation even more.But hey anon they cant keep their nose out of nothing.

I hope sony fines or chargesthese hackers for doing this.I'm fine with people defending consumers right, but when it turns toillegal stuff like this I will get angry.

"Buy this new car!!! It lets you do this, this and this!" Then a week later they take those aspects out, THAT YOU BOUGHT THE CAR FOR IN TEH FIRST PLACE.

Understand? Some people bought a ps3 for the aspects that sony took away after they took there money, that is not right.

Why advertise those features or even put them in the ps3 if you are gonna take them out later?

So, are you saying people actually bought the PS3 because the "Other OS" option??? :roll:

PSN is terrible regardless of hacker activity, at least with PSN+ you get faster conections (I hope you do)

[QUOTE="kozzy1234"]

Some people yes, I know atleast 10 people myself that did and I am sure there are tons of others around the world that bought a PS3 for that reason or that beign ONE of hte reasons.

Just because myself and you didnt buy a ps3 for that reason does not mean others didnt or that what sony is doing is wrong.

They are getting the consequences they deserve imo, even if it effects me and my time on PSN, what sony has done is wrong wrong wrong.

Lol keep defending Geo all you want he still didnt have any right to publish the master key! I dont even want to argue about this anymore, people still dont get it. Why dont you send him some more money through paypal maybe he can go on another vacation.
