Hacker Group Anonymous Condemns PSN Attacks - News
by VGChartz Staff , posted on 29 April 2011 / 19,439 ViewsWe’ve all heard what Geohot has to say about this whole PSN hacking thing, but what about Anonymous? The hacker group did say that they’re not the ones behind the attacks, although they also can’t say if someone or a group of people branched away from the core group and are now doing this on their own.
Anonymous was asked by Console Monster what they thought of people blaming the group for the recent PSN outage.
"No matter who did it, this action is against the Anonymous principles, so it wasn't an Anonymous attack, it just was an attack to get private data. Thats not Anonymous, that's just a crime to make money."
They were also asked if they were planning on attacking the PSN once it’s back up online. PS3 users you can rest easy.
"No, i don't think that someone related to anon will attack them in the future, they already stopped the anonymous cyber-attacks against Sony in the past and instead they demonstrate in real life."
There you have it. Anonymous is not the ones behind the attack and you can rest easy that once PSN is back online that they won’t be meddling with it further (at least for a while).
Do you think the ones responsible are former Anonymous members or are these people involved in the biggest security breach Sony has ever seen just thieves who’ve seen an opportunity and used it to cover up their primary intentions?
