Anonymous hacked the PSN, but then didn’t

8/16/12 4:05pm

Anonymous has made the headlines again, but this time it’s for something that they claimed happened, but didn’t. Yeah, Anonymous claimed via Twitter that they had once again hacked the PlayStation Network. They have uploaded a list of 50GB worth of usernames and passwords, but it turned out to be a list of random details.

Later the tweet would be removed from the Anonymous account and Sony would give an official statement. "We’ve confirmed that the recent claim that PlayStation Network was illegally hacked and that customer passwords and email addresses were accessed is completely false”. So it was all a hoax and now Anonymous looks a little foolish, but I wouldn’t gloat too much. Next time that might not be the case.

Anyone else want to see what life would be like if V for Vendetta had never been made so no one would have the masks? anyway I'm kind of indifferent to anonymous, as far as I know they haven't done anything that majorly affects me in either a positive or negative way

So now they are criminals AND idiots now? Can't say that I didn't see that coming. I mean, I am no computer master, but I at least am aware of what I have and have not done.

Hey, hey guys. I just thought I'd point out that Anonymous isn't a coordinated group, or a group in anyway whatsoever. There's no leader, no members, no nothing. They don't hack, the whole thing is a big troll that you all fall for every time a random person posts a twitter message on the "official" anonymous twitter account.

who exactly is Anonymous claiming to fight for? Everybody hates them, and now they resorted to just pretending they do stuff.
