If it wasn't for him giving lizard squad and all 3000 members of the hack group a life time membership to MEGA Upload.... They would still be hitting XBOX and PSN offline right now.
Edit: okay maybe they are not a hack group, but still a bunch of trolls who can still do enough damage to prevent you from enjoying your games.
-
I say instead of rewarding them track them down and cut one of there hands off like they do in other countries when some one is cot stealing because there stealing from every single one of us that pay for this service yes this is harsh but it would prevent other attacks like this from happening unfortunately they will be hard to find
-
Rewarding bad behavior.
-
Yeah I'm sure he just swooped in to save the day solely based on the kindness in his heart....this whole situation stinks...something else is going on
-
Kim Dot Com is a fat bag of crap. He said the US government should learn diplomacy. Why would our government give Lizard Squad anything but jail time. They are getting their 5 minutes of fame and this will be forgotten soon. But, rest assured certain companies and agency's don't have such a short memory.

Edited by Joaquin Dead: 12/27/2014 5:40:28 AMF Him and the whole script kiddie community That being said.... Why the -blam!- weren't they prepared for this shit. It's the holiday, I know but still. What good is the power of the cloud if a pubescent zit farmer can DDoS your network from his mom's basement? Oh, and why the -blam!- did we spend a trillion dollars on NSA signal intelligence if we can't even catch a script kiddie? Talk about the biggest waste of tax dollars ever. /end rant

The servers are still suffering. What MVP?

That's not an MVP move that's called appeasement and when you appease you give power. Examples would be everything from WW2 to terrorist actions around the world. Learn your history and recognize what's really happen. Also Kim.com did this for his own ends, did you notice his comment about the US?
-
You have to wait, it's like a bomb, it destroys everything, you have to wait for clean up, recovery and boot up
-
Remember the episode of South Park were the kids play WoW for so long they all look like Kim Dotcom
-
And yet both networks are still suffering.
-
They're still offline from where I'm at.
-
Saying KimDotCom saved the day is like saying Finest Squad stopped Douche Squad. PSN is unusable, no one saved shit.
-
No he isn't the MVP. They are still attacking the psn yet has this guy canceled the deal? Nope.
-
Great, now every half-baked hacker group will attack, hoping to get some sort of freebie. MVP!? Muppet more like!
-
Yeah... Giving cyber terrorists gifts is the answer to the problem. I'd prefer locking them up in a cell with a bunch of butthole bandits, but that's just me. And PSN is still down, no proof Lizard squad was even responsible.
-
Wtf ever. Psn is STILL down.
-
Spoken like a true bleeding heart liberal. "If we're just nice to them and tell them we understand where they're coming from, they would stop beheading people" Exactly the reason why they do this crap, because they get publicity and free crap! Yes by all means reward them so they will stop hurting us. Idiots! Just like North Korea, they make a big stink, fire a missile, say they are going to do a nuclear test and America comes running to give them billions and billions of dollars so their military and leaders can live in luxury while 90% of the population live on a nickel a day. So yes, again, by all means, let's give these idiots something so they will stop. Bullies, and this is what they are, know of only one thing. Fear! Either them passing it out or them getting some for themselves. So if they can make us flinch, they will continue to do it until someone knocks them on their collective @$$e$ !
-
No they aren't. They are chumps for caving in. All they have done is further reward these idiots and ensure this kind of thing will happen more and more. Now every attention seeking, greedy script kiddie looking for a pay out will just go after one or both systems now. Would have rather seen both systems just stay down until they were caught or Sony and Microsoft kicked them out of their networks than have these retards profit.

Edited by Bizurns: 12/26/2014 9:26:03 PMYeah, he gave them 3k lifetime memberships that equates to $3k. Just goes to show how retarded they are. Megaupload is under a ton of scrutiny. They just accepted 3k accounts to a highly sought after(not in a good way) and highly troublesome file share. Real smart.
-
The U.S. Should treat hackers like child offenders strip them of all electronic devices for life No more No life No hackers
-
I guess this is a cool story, but how is this feedback for destiny...?
-
Were santa at when you need him
-
Theres not 3k members of lizard squad...
-
He just gave them a reason to do it again.
-
Sets a really bad precedent
