Lizard Squad promises to shut down Xbox live "forever" on Christmas

[someone2639]

Nope, not even coders. Just a bunch of no life script kiddies living in their moms basement thinking they're "1337" because they can click a button labelled "Hack".

I, having absolutely NO advanced programming experience, am a better hacker than this Lizard Squad.

Same here, all they're using is a program that executes scripts. All they do is just select the type of attack, enter the IP and click Hack.

If that's true, it says more about Microsoft's security for the Xbox Live servers than it does the hackers. Shameful.

The last DDOS attack that they tried only partially knocked Xbox Live offline for some users, I would say Microsoft are ready for them. Considering they're only script kiddies "forever" isn't going to happen.

Lizard Squad is full of a bunch of amateur hackers that could do something a kid with a laptop could do. They are nothing, and won't do anything.

Lizard Squad is down!! I repeat, Lizard Squad is down!!!!

Woohoo!! We did it!

 

[ShinraCorp]

Woohoo we did it even though we did absolutely nothing but we'll still take credit for it! But who knows perhaps there will be another script kiddies group aiming at Xbox LIVE on Christmas.

*turns off gameboy color, turns on xbox; plays halo 4.* There is still going to be someone out there that is going to pull a stunt like they did with Sony.

I wonder if this is what was mentioned? Either way, it was definitely not forever. :-/

Xbox Live And PlayStation Network Are Having Major Problems Today

I wonder if this is what was mentioned? Either way, it was definitely not forever. :-/

Could just be coincidence, Xbox Live and PSN would be extremely busy this time of year and there's always the possibility of a service outage due to the huge amount of people wanting to connect.
