    damn, this is rather interesting. I find the whole thing fascinating but it sucks that they are affecting the Playstation Network and the millions of people who have nothing to do with this. Thank god I'm a 360 person :P

    @Larinah I won't deny that the service wasn't the best, but when it shut down completely, forcing me to search for a workaround, that was more than irritating.

    @Klucidity Not between fapping off to hentai in their parent's basements, no. @Larinah So because Sony couldn't come up with a hack-proof machine, this is all their fault? Get your head out of your ass.

    @Larinah: Agreed. Way to be macho, Sony. You got yourself into this mess, if you're still super tough you'll get yourself out. Hell, even if you argue that they didn't start it, the deepened it. Constant poking and kicking of the situation and hackers. Now, the animal is biting back.

    Matthew Lillard says "HACK THE PLANET!"

    People who support hackers should be sent to the gallows along with the douchebags...

    Sooo, people are complaining because an already slow service is slowed even more? Call me insane but I support Geohot and Anon. Sony is trying to flex it's muscles by attacking small-time hackers and now they're paying for it. If they wouldn't have cut corners in the first place we wouldn't be having this problem.

    Nah, haven`t felt a thing yet, still knifing noobs. I just hope that prices won`t go up to pay the butcher`s bill (prolexic`s bill whatever).

    Buncha basement dwellers.

    Haven't they got anything better to do?

    I just want to download demos and watch Netflix in peace! At least, I'm pretty sure you need to be logged in to the PSN to watch Netflix... But there are still things that I want to do that require me to be logged in regardless!

    Who suffers in the end? Gamers. Thanks alot hackers. Douchebags.
