Anonymous has revealed that their next attack against Sony will take place once the PSN is back up.
When asked in the groups IRC one Anonymous member replied that the attack is planned for when the PSN is back online. They made an effort to emphasise that they didn’t bring the PSN down and the pending attack on Sony will not be against the PSN.
With Anonymous changing away from the PSN and gamers and only targeting Sony will it cause more support for them? Comment your opinion below.

Damn

April 23, 2011 at 5:20 AMhack the predatory lending banks that fucked our economy, hack the politicians that do not even show up to vote when congress is in session, hack the colleges that used to educate and now just worry about making money on research programs, hack the “hedge fund” brokers that are essentially “ponzi schemers” on wall street, hack wall mart for manipulating our welfare system to offer employee benefits at the expense of the tax payer, hack the oil companies for price fixing and hack bias news organizations that pass off their own interpretations as fact to an easily manipulated society…Sony is likely not losing any amount of money that would be detrimental enough to “teach them a lesson.” They will still bill out all their paying customers for services now not rendered. Why is it that I educated myself, provide services for my community on an individual basis, still understand the ultimately frivolous nature of gaming but enjoy it as a way to spend my free time, only to have it taken away by self proclaimed “musketeers.” I understand the ideology of hacking and the need to “force awareness.” If these hackers really think they have an argument that crashing the PSN solved, I have yet to hear one that applies to logic. So far it seems like a self indulgent experiment that has nothing to do with the routes and heritage of hacking. The only people they are really pissing off so far (besides maybe a few hundred Sony programmers and the religious gamers) are the people that used to be fascinated by and support the rebellion of hackers in general. It is like they wanted to prove they could degrade their own system of communication, fairly contradictory to the ideology of spreading technological availability to those that would not otherwise have it. Although I do look forward to gaming when I have the time and always use the PSN to do so, having it taken away is not what upsets me. It is the idea that these hackers might actually believe they are achieving this shock and awe attention through anything but a personal vendetta that few, not even Sony thinks is effective. Yes I am impressed that they could accomplish this network crash, but why do so at the expense of a large number of your own supporters? I guarantee you the “administration” of Sony who they set out to threaten are quite comfortable knowing they have the only product like this one and as a result their customer basis and job security will not be effected.

April 23, 2011 at 5:22 AMOh my fucking god!!!! Ok firstly this hasn’t really pissed me off that much because I usually just visit my girlfriend during the holidays anyway (which non of these hackers would know what im talking about :) ) or just go outside and make Parkour videos for You Tube. But I have noticed that this is really pissing people off but dont blame this on sony, you cant complain to sony either because we are getting online gaming for free, so technically we are not paying sony to pay someone to look over the PSN 24/7, so if you want to support sony during this time go and buy a DLC pack or quit whining and go pay for X-Box Live. And secondly, Why? Why would people want to hack Sony in the first place? Go and get a fucking life why dont you. You seriously get no positive outcome from hacking stuff. Seriously, all these people want to do is play there fucking games, so why dont you leave Sony alone, because if any of use PSN users find you, we are gonna seriously hook you one in the face. And one more thing, im pretty shure Sony isn’t sitting back and chilling on this, they would be working all day and night to get this back up and running for you guys, so dont be angry with Sony. Thnx :)

April 23, 2011 at 8:43 AMIf the hackers want to gain support shutting down the psn is not the way to do it. That will only piss us off and make us want to find them and beat them with a rubber hose. If anything attack the revenue stream that Sony makes off the psn. Hack the store and give us free goodies. I’ll support your cause if you show us some love.

April 23, 2011 at 8:53 AMLets look at this: Sony realizes that they are stupid and learns that the community is smarter then them and doesn’t want people “adding onto” their ps3. Sony creates patch that doesn’t allow that to happen any more. GeoHot and some other people figure out to crack the ps3 again after the patch. Sony sues their asses. So anon threatens and attacks Sony servers. Promising they wouldn’t effect innocent gamers because they’re not evolved, they go after Sonys PSN. PSN goes down, it’s now been 3 days wasted.
if it wasn’t for 2 retarded crackers, some 85 million gamers would still be able to play their games and watch there net flix.
Despite every and their opinions, can anyone really say that is justified? Fuck you anon, after watching you chaotic retards grow from nothing into something, and me having SOME respect for your cause, it’s gone now.
It’s quite ironic how the online moral warriors punish people that had nothing to do with sony. I firmly believe there’s an “oh-shit-maybe-we-shouldn’t-have-done-that” going around. Gamers have been anons silent ally since the very beginning, i’m sure anyone here can relate when they first heard of anon. we all generally liked their ideas and got some luls, but this is just retarded, it’s like a child that is crying over his lollypop being stolen which is almost literally what just happened, so we are all punished because roughly .000000035 of the gaming population via Playstation network wants to manipulate a device that wasn’t designed for it’s original purpose. Thanks
one thing i’m so proud to say, because it’ll be toxic to the people that are responsible: if i knew where the people responsible for this were located, i’d do something about it.

April 23, 2011 at 10:41 AMAttacking Sony will not gain this group any support within gaming circles. Gamers will no doubt simply watch on with detached interest as two entities express there differences of opinion. If the experience of the online network remains intact there will be very little cause for concern from a gamers perspective, however simply sitting on the middle of the fence in such situations may not prove beneficial in the short term. If already tense relations worsen between Sony and Anonymous, gamers may in the extreme be forced to jump ship. Unfortunately not all individuals would be in a position to do so and thus would begin the inevitable victims of war scenario.

April 23, 2011 at 10:42 AMF’n a$$hole hackers have PSN down for over 2 days now. I spend too much damn money on online games to have my shit down on a 3 day weekend no less! SONY GET IT BACK ONLINE NOW!!!!!
jim
April 23, 2011 at 11:20 AMi dont see why people have to be so smart but extreamly immature. instead of doing what normal mature people do (which is if you dont like how a certain company does it you dont buy it, which would prob make more progress then anything any hackers doing not.) instead you take the five year old approch and act like everything revolves around you. honeslty all taking sony down is going to do anyways is cause the console comunity to get even worse because guess what the less compitition in the market, the less you have to try to get people to buy ur system. meaning that microsoft and nintendo have a much easier job to not have to fine tune their systems and all in all leave us with strait crap to play games on

April 23, 2011 at 11:23 AMThis craps pathetic how anos grow a set and let us gamers play good god there aholes
Big_J_4200
April 23, 2011 at 11:23 AMLook the reason this is happening is because a group of social rejects living in their mommy’s basement cant help the fact but make everyone feel as pathetic as them. Fortunately you can watch netflix if you just keep at it it will keep bringing up the sign in box try to sign in each time. First time try to sign in let it tell you it is down. Then let netflix load and it will tell you to sign in again, do so. Let it tell you again it is down and and netflix should be loaded and it will let you watch and download still you just have to go through the steps. Hope this is fixed and hope all the social rejects out there anon or not go fuck themselves and the gaming systems alone. Give it up if you want to change shit so much, get off your dead asses and get a job in the game designing world.

April 23, 2011 at 4:11 PMAt first I looked up to Anonymous but this is ridiculous..thanks for the unwarranted attack on players who actually dont mind working 9 to 5 just to pay for their games.

April 23, 2011 at 4:23 PMGeohot…if you thought Anonymous coming to your aid was a good idea think again…they just made your case even bigger by taking down the PSN network in your name…have fun in prison duchebag…and ps..you should have gotten a job and some Clearasil…girlfriends f-ing up your life is more acceptable than f-ing up your life because you dont want to pay for videogames.

April 23, 2011 at 8:17 PMAnon says that they are fighting for our rights, WTF!! Dont try to use us as ure excuse. And these “Rights” of ours are not our rights at all,yes we have various rights but not the right to control sony, in fact, if you read the user agreement from sony when you sing up, these rights are sony’s rights so you are in the wrong the whole way. And you are also violating rights in the proccess, you cannot do that, its double standards. You cannot tell Playstation what they are to do with there network prices because you do not own them, you get what you pay for and sony is making use pay for what we purchase/want, you cant get everything you want for free. And if we are not satisfied with the prices sony has put on that certain DLC/game we want, we do not purchase and sony will not gain money, therefore sony will gain nothing but thats not what they want so they will not try to rip us off because they do not want that. And you said you are on our side, what a load of bullshit, no one was complaining to sony until you came along saying you are fighting for us. Everyone was happy with the prices and you just made up shit. If you are really on our side, give us what we REALLY want, and that is for you to stop this whole thing and allow us to play our games peacefully. And if you dont, we, as PSN users, will stand up against you and fight beside sony, we have had enough and we are putting our foot down, we WILL come out on top.

April 23, 2011 at 8:23 PMSorry forgot a bit of my raging, Anon, if you are fighting for our rights as you say you are, (which non of use are convinced as far as I know) why are you violating sony’s rights? It is not your right to violate sony by hacking them so you are not doing any justice.

April 24, 2011 at 1:24 AM@ICURMT2 shows how much u know the geohot case was settled atleast a week ago and he was never facing jail time it was a cival trial not criminal
FUCK ANON
April 24, 2011 at 1:50 AMFUCK ANON and anyone who isn’t good enough at gaming to fuckin pwn dipshits with out hacks. Jail breaking a ps3 is for broke ass loosers and people who live in their mothers basment with out an income. I cant stand hackers. Hackers are nerds that never cashed in on their smarts. In all reality you should be my boss but you suck at life and should kill yourself. You are epic fail at life and the world would be better off without you. <<>> body needs your fat, stink breath, jerking off to donkey ass hole, mothers basement living, wishing you knew what pussy felt or looked like, horse fucked ass hole, loser self around. You are whats wrong with the digital age. Oh and i would not think twice about shooting you in the fucking face. I’m military and your fucking with my recreation time. When you fuck with my time and you’re not my superior i will surely fuck your bitch ass up. I hate hackers and anyone who thinks their stupid fucking cause could gain support by fucking with my favorite (not only) source of entertainment.
if it is not obvious, I FUCKING HATE ANYONE WHO THINKS THEIR CAUSE IS WORTH A FUCK. FUCK YOU AND YOUR DUMBASS CAUSE. ACTAVISTS ARE SMELLY HIPPY FUCKS AND SHOULD FUCKING KILL THEM SELVES IN A MASS SUICIDE JUST LIKE THE NIKE WEARING DUMBASSES A DECADE OR SO AGO. YOU ARE FAIL AT LIFE YOU ARE NOT NECCESARY AND YOUR FUCKING MOTTO “we do not forgive, we do not forget, we are legion, unite” or what the fuck ever your stupid group says, just for the record IS FUCKING RETARDED. “WE do not research, we do not think, we are loosers, destroy our support”, should be your motto it is more fitting.
P.S. I HATE YOU.
Sun's Shadow
April 24, 2011 at 7:35 AMYea dude I know what your talking about, they do not see the other side of what they are doing or anything. But is PS3 really your only source of entertainment? Im shure you could find something more to do other than play games, like I just go outside and flip off heaps of shit or ring people up to see if they can come over. Oh and Anon probably does know what pussy feels like and looks like bacause, well, they have one. :)

April 26, 2011 at 2:07 PMmaybe sony should hack the Anonymous hackers and destroy there computers with a huge undetectable computer virus!!!
bsablan
April 28, 2011 at 6:03 PMI find it funny how there are comments trash talking Anonymous. I’m not sticking up for them, but what Sony tried to do to GeoHot, was really stupid. He jailbroke HIS own ps3, now if the ps3 actually belonged to Sony, then theres a reason for Sony to sue him. But GeoHot messing with his own property is his business. Sony is about as fucked up as Microsoft. Anonymous attacked Sony BECAUSE they sued GeoHot. Which is why everyone blames Anonymous for Sony taking down PSN. Sony said there was an external intrusion. What if there wasn’t? What if they’re using this as an excuse to increase the security on PSN, if Anonymous is gonna try and hack it?
