"You shouldn't have fired me John smelly. Now I will burn you!"

I can just imagine some 38 year old nerd laughing to himself at all of the inconveniencing he is doing.

 

[AmaterasuOni]

Apparently, they(and a friend?) have just posted, John Smedley's personal info. along with a badly photoshoped picture of him being beheaded.

Yeah, they are obsessed.

Microsoft fanboys confirmed?

It's strange how that FamedGod guy vanised. I guess he really was just a COD-bro with too much time and cops took him down already. And where's Unknownsec now? They promised to dox Lizard Group, but they only brought out one dox. Strange.

Gaming is depressing at times.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

Yup that actually just happened. This whole thing just keeps getting more pathetic by the day. It seems the guys friend is targeting Virgin too now, so I'm guessing ISP's are the next targets. I'd guess they don't go down too easy though.

Edit: Never mind, it was an old post from yesterday same as the image and dox.

They joined lizard squad.

They're like backstreet boys + nsync now

 

[Setsuna]

Looks like hes targeting twitch users

 

[Donos]

yeah what happend to FameGod? Someone "knocked" on his door?

Well he is a member of anonymous.....he was probably already marked.

Sony needs to stem this as soon as possible. We as gamers know this isn't a hack, but to Johnny Stacks and the general public, anytime someone does something to an online network is considered a "hack". This in turn is going to spread like wildfire and only strengthen the "PS4 is selling better, but Xbox One doesn't get hacked!" narrative. Consumers afraid that the PS4 version of Destiny will be down on day one will have no choice, but to buy Xbox Ones and play Destiny on the better system. This in turn will cause PS4 sales to plummit as Xbox One will take Sept-December. Then Xbox will take its place back at the #1 spot while Nintendo and Sony try to play catchup with Poketekken and The Order: 1886 Setpieces. You could have prevented it Sony after 2012, but as the saying goes, "Fools who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it."

I wish there was a stickied thread of "classic" old posts so I could contrast and compare.

Sickening.

Someone else is claiming to be shutting them down now. May be false like the others but this account seems to have been made to combat them, so perhaps a couple of anons or something. Guess we'll see soon if the attacks continue.

Edit: Lizard Squad are claiming to be having trouble right now following threats from a new group and an anon. Seems this time it could be legit.

To ipviking we go!

IPViking is lit up like crazy right now. Constant huge waves on Seattle without a seconds rest. 100 times the waves that were happening yesterday.

[YianGaruga]

Looks like twitch was next on their list
https://twitter.com/LizardSquad

Streams aren't loading on the site for most people.

 

[Phreaker]

Yeah, Twitch is down mostly.

 

[AusRoachman]

If you think about it many of the computers DDOSing PSN were running Windows so personally I hold Microsoft responsible even if they didn't order the attack themselves.

With that logic all of the ps4 games are coded on windows so sonys games are actually made by Microsoft.

 

[SolidSnakesMyStepDad]

Yeah, Twitch is down mostly.

It seems like once you are in a stream it works ok but trying to get into a stream is almost impossible now.

 

[~Kinggi~]

I knew twitch was gettin attacked when the pages were loading all funny.

 

[Daemul]

If it's Seattle then MS are most likely the ones being targeted, their HQ is based around there.

 

[vazel]

Dammit, twitch is freaking out again.

 

[manhack]

yeah twitch down. I keep thinking my internet is screwing up, then I head over to this thread to confirm. LOL

 

[Ghazi]

Wait, now they'll have Amazon up on their asses.


RIP, they chose a bad time to DDoS Twitch lol.

 

[PAULINK]

fucking lizardsquad

 

[aly]

Wow,Twitch won't even load.

 

[Nekofrog]

pls, i need to watch summoning insight and see monte stutter for excuses as to why clg got stomped 3-0 by an inferior non-korean bootcamped curse

 

[vazel]

With Twitch down, what if they go for Netflix next. I'm not sure I can take that, I would suicide.

Those internet terrorists hitting us decadent Americans where it hurts the most.

don't give them ideas!


but its obvious that netflix isn't really gaming related, i dont think they'd go after them.

plus, they need something to watch while they're monitoring their DDoSing, right?

 

[Ghazi]

Did Brazzers ever come back up?

Kappa

 

[manhack]

battle.net freaking out again. this is ridiculous

 

[jabuseika]

Funny how DDOS attacks usually originate from Amazon Cloud infected servers.

Twitch is pretty much DDOS'ing itself right now. Kappa.

 

[Pattycakes]

I'm almost willing to bet someone within Lizard Squad has been flipped. Didn't one Lulzsec member get flipped pretty quick then continue doxxing until the FBI could catalog everyone one of them?

If that's true then they have been ddosing themselves from the start. Sony uses Amazon cloud ha.

FALSE FLAG!

 

[B_Spooky13]

St Louis is getting bombed

 

[Punkster_NY]

Twitch is down.

 

[kyser73]

ipviking is possibly the coolest thing I've ever seen on the net.

 

[Sajjaja]

BNet got hit.

 

[Live Free or Die]

Twitch is down.

Wow.

 

[Dark_castle]

Battlenet down again, but may or may not be the work of those fucking Lizards.

 

[Dsyndrome]

How long does it take for authorities to build up a case against these fucks?

 

[Pandora012]

How long do you figure, until they hit PSN again?

 

[KaYotiX]

and all I wanted to do was farm greater rifts tonight.....

 

[tycoonheart]

Steam down too?

 

[Acorn]

How long do you figure, until they hit PSN again?

Given the obsession with John Smedley, not long probably.

 

[Live Free or Die]

Steam down too?

Working for me.

 

[Pandora012]

Given the obsession with John Smedley, not long probably.

*Sigh* Guess I'll go on now and enjoy it while it lasts.

 

[mo60]

How long does it take for authorities to build up a case against these fucks?

A couple of weeks to maybe a couple of month depending on where they live.

 

[SteveO1683]

St Louis is getting bombed

We got Ferguson going on and I think Chaters DNS servers got attacked this weekend as well. Good time to be in the Lou.

 

[LapinAgile]

San Diego is being targeted as well, most likely trying to nail PSN. Never knew about this ipviking site, pretty cool despite the crappy circumstances.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

*Sigh* Guess I'll go on now and enjoy it while it lasts.

Unless they found something else out that way that interests them then they've been hitting PSN all day today and yesterday with no real success. Plus the attack on Twitch has been repeated already, I'd hazard a guess that they already tried PSN again and failed this time. With the DDoS waves still in full force I'd imagine Sony have taken extra measures temporarily.

Maybe it's only one person
