Anonymous: PSN Attack Is “A Crime To Make Money”

Posted By | On 28th, Apr. 2011

With the PSN hack becoming more or less a mainstream issue with over 70 million accounts/users affected, it was obvious that many people would have thought that the Anonymous are behind this attack. However it was revealed to be otherwise.

In an interesting interview with Consolemonster, when it was asked whether they are behind the attack, they said:

“No matter who did it, this action is against the Anonymous principles, so it wasn’t an Anonymous attack, it just was an attack to get private data. Thats not Anonymous, that’s just a crime to make money”

He also continued saying:

“of course its bad that some people now think that these people are Anonymous, but thats the disadvantage of being anonymous.”
