More troubles for Sony, as their PSN gets DDoS-ed on xmas day! The same group (called Lizard Squad) also attacks Tor - enough to cause a scare and force them to issue a warning.
Some information on Lizard Squad - seems like some kids seeking attention (which is common for DDoS attacks). However, since they have been giving interviews to BBC, we maybe looking at an arrest in the making.
More information out. The sqad is offering DDoS services for a fee. However, the whole setup looks amateurish. Back to my earlier thoughts, that the group seems only minimally competent, and looking for some lime-light.
Update 10-Jan-15:
Not surprisingly two members of the squad get arrested.
