s****t 发帖数: 17096 | 1 In a letter sent to the US Congress on Wednesday, Sony Corp. executive vice
president Kaz Hirai implicated members of the "hacktivist" collective
Anonymous in the cyberattack that brought down the PlayStation Network. The
following day, the group sent out a press release saying that any inquiry
into the matter would prove the organization is innocent in the data breach,
which led to the leak of some 77 million PSN users' personal information,
as well as that of Sony Online Entertainment's user base.
Despite its protestations to the contrary, Anonymous may have been behind
the PSN attack after all.
Now, two individuals claiming to be "veteran" members of Anonymous are
singing a different tune. Speaking to the Financial Times, the pair say that
the people behind the information theft were almost certainly elements of
the collective engaged in an anti-Sony crusade dubbed "OpSony."
"The hacker that did this was supporting OpSony's movements," one unnamed
Anonymous member told the Times.
"Kayla," another member, went even further, saying, "If you say you are
Anonymous, and do something as Anonymous, then Anonymous did it. Just
because the rest of Anonymous might not agree with it, doesn't mean
Anonymous didn't do it."
OpSony began in early April as a response to Sony's legal action against
PlayStation 3 hacker George "GeoHot" Hotz. Anonymous then engaged in a
series of denial-of-service attacks on a variety of Sony sites, leading to
some instability.
Some 11 days later, the PlayStation Network suffered a data breach between
April 17 and 19, which led to Sony taking the online service offline. In a
press release several days later, Anonymous denied the organization had
sanctioned the attacks.
As of Friday, the PSN remained down, although Sony said Thursday it is
engaged in "final testing" for it to resume operations soon. | l****t 发帖数: 1454 | 2 报道说,PSN要5月31号才能开张了
