Cause it's 4chan.
Not really.
Anonymous isn't what most people think it is.
Anonymous is really just a bunch of people fighting for freedom, using the internet as a weapon in the fight.

Thats why they have just gotten on and changed random stuff on YouTube on multiple occasions that hasn't hurt anyone expect the everyday users?

The original idea of the group Anonymous was good. But no idea stands for long. Now a large chunk of them are dickheads. Yeah there's still a small group of the original ones but the rest mostly just abuse the fact that they are anonymous to troll.
Only mostly AWOL.

But what's the point of punishing the customers? They don't file lawsuits against hackers

Theirs probably a lot of hackers out there claiming to be part of anonymous but aren't really.

They technically are. That's the point of anonymous. Anonymous isn't an organization, it's a living organism, and changes in purpose and ideas depending on who's active at the time. A lot like the joker. Sometimes it's a harmless prankster, sometimes a sociopathic txìm, and sometimes someone with drive and purpose. You just don't know which one you'll have to deal with. But they're all anonymous.

True. But they may not be completely anonymous to eachother. Just speculation on my part though.

They mostly are... Eg. I don't know the names of anyone else in Anonymous.
And I didn't help hack PSN, btw. I was against that.

What have they changed on YouTube?

The've hacked big name accounts and prevented posting, and at one point they changed all the thumbnails to some asian guy. At least I thought the first one was them.
That forced youtube to change the security and make it harder on users to post and upload videos.

Sorry if any of this info is wrong, this is what I have been told.

I heard its goin to be another month. I'm sending hate mail to Sony that I can't post on here because of explicit wording that's too explicit to even use censored.


bommel

According to some news post on a German PC website Anonymous says they aren't responsible for the current problems. There are rumors that a custam firmware "rebug" allows PS3 users to shop in PSN without a valid credit card (i. e. for free ^^) and Sony has shut down PSN to fix this. Anonymous warns that Sony might try to blame them for the current problem.

But be aware of the fact that Anonymous is a loose group of different people, they don't have "official" speakers or sth like this. Therefore it could be possible that some members of Anonymous attacked PSN on their own!

I think that the blame game is pointless unless it fixes problems.  I see a ton of speculation, but no-one has specifics, because it is being used to find the leak that allowed an intrusion if there was one.  They would like to throw someone under the bus, because they believe it helps their image if someone is at fault, someone will end up fired over it, and it may not even be their fault.

WOAH WOAH WOAH

Relax peoples.

Sending hate mail will achieve bugger all (it might even get your account suspended) so just relax and get angry at something you can effect. Heck if someone did hack it and took it down this is probably what they want people to do so they can laugh at you. Just calm down and do something else until it is fixed. Same goes for anything really. If you can help by all means help but if not then just relax and do something else while it gets fixed. I doubt Sony will take it down any longer than absolutely necessary because just think: they want people to be happy and spend all their money not be angry and go over to the Xbox or something so it will be fixed ASAP. 

Everything that can go wrong will go wrong. So expect the worse and you'll be pleasantly surprised when it doesn't go wrong.
(Non angry music helps too.)
Only mostly AWOL.

According to Sony all personal data has been copied by the hackers and maybe even credit card information. Awesome.

Seems like a credit card isn't that good of an idea, Tawtewng.

But a friend of just said that Sony says it going to take a week

Thomas, Bommel said that. As for credit cards, it might not be true but all you have to do is monitor your account to see if any unusual things happen.
