So yeah, Anonymous thought it would be 'cool beans' to take down the PSN to attack Sony for suing Geohot and Graf_Chokolo for cracking the PS3 open and making it able to reinstall linux and essentially pirate games.

So Anonymous being the infernal dickwads they are decide to take down the PSN.

This is hurting no-one but the gamers, you're not hurting Sony much there. They've already said it's 'maintenance'.

Anyone else getting really sick of Anonymous?

And before anyone thinks that Anonymous = 4chan, it doesn't. Most people on 4chan really hate 'Anonymous' for making a mockery of the lulz they used to spread.

Anonymous said:
Congratulations, Sony. You now have now received the undivided attention of Anonymous. Your recent legal action against our follow hackers, Geohot and Graf_Chokolo, has not only alarmed us, it has been deemed wholly unforgivable.”

You have now abused the judicial system in an attempt to censor information on how your products work. You have victimised your own customers merely for possessing and sharing information, and continue to target every person who seeks this information. In doing so you have violated the privacy of thousands. This is the information they were willing to teach the world for free. The very same information you wish to suppress for sake of corporate greed and complete control of the users.

Now you will experience the wrath of Anonymous. You saw a hornets nest, and stuck your p*nises in it. You must face the consequences of your actions, Anonymous style.

Knowledge is Free. We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not Forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.

The whole Anonymous thing is a joke anyway. They leeched onto the whole Scientology thing and thought that made them *** 'white knights' or 'heroes for the people'

Well herp the *** derp Anonymous, the only people you're hurting here is the gamer.

Gamers should be the LAST group that hackers go after.

Alienate some more allies, why don't you.

The whole Guy fawkes mask persona they pull is HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE too. A good hacker or group of hackers wouldn't feel the need to basically attention ***.

Well lookee here, it looks like Anon have finally realised they were wrong:

Anonymous said:

"We realize that targeting the PSN is not a good idea. We have therefore temporarily suspended our action, until a method is found that will not severely impact Sony customers."
"Anonymous is on your side, standing up for your rights. We are not aiming to attack customers of Sony. This attack is aimed solely at Sony, and we will try our best to not affect the gamers, as this would defeat the purpose of our actions. If we did inconvenience users, please know that this was not our goal."

Eventually what looked like an internet revolution turns into a bunch of derpy *** kids thinking their entitled to all their free toys, and when mommy and daddy take them away they cry.

When we pirate, we know it's not legal and we know it's not supposed to happen. Bitching because you get shut down is just sad. lol

Yup. Add to the fact that he knew cracking the PS3 open was going to have adverse effects.

It winds me up.
