Actually Enigma, I think that Anonymous launched a project on their private IRC for the victims of the mass firing. I think that maybe they worked together somehow and exchanged information about their code and Anonymous intelligence performed the exploit. Or maybe the victims of the firing just used Anonymous to be cool...

[AkumaRyu27]

@Essa698 hummm, interesting theory...i never thought about it?..i like this one a lot though..very much possible...so u think Anonymous is still sour about the whole geohotz court case? could that be why they did this?..

[Essa698]

@AkumaRyu27 Maybe, I haven't looked at the geohotz case but I assume its about the firing.

[AkumaRyu27]

@Essa698 no, i have a video, check it out, if u have time sir, he broke into the PS3 n made custom firm ware...Sony took him to court, long story short anonymous intervened for this kid...which was wrong, they had no right...geohotz is a kid with nothing better to do

[Essa698]

@AkumaRyu27 Wow really? Just cause he modded his system. That's sad, I yearn for an open source gaming console...

[AkumaRyu27]

@Essa698 well yes, but were he screwed up was he showed every1 how to do it online, a complete video on his site n utube, sony stepped in n got all the IPA from ever1...then anonymous got involved

So they posted the 'update' about reporting to the House, but can anyone find any information about that? All I can find are sites commenting on the update. I'm starting to wonder if Sony is being honest about any of this. Afterall it seems strange that only days after the Westboro Baptist Church(of Crazies) said that they were receiving threats from Anonymous and the Koch brothers get hacked, suddenly Sony is claiming an unverifiable attack immediately following the GeoHotz lawsuit...

[originalShorai]

@AkumaRyu27 After being blown off by Sony when he told them about the hack beforehand too. Poor kid was just trying to make a buck as a network security guy.

[Essa698]

@AkumaRyu27 Good for them, the DDoSers were fools if they didn't use security precautions. I don't even know why they would use their botnets / zombies without hopping. (Controlling computer that controls computer that controls computer, ect, ect.)

@AkumaRyu27 Nah keep him, pretty badass in my opinion lolol.
