Anonymous is a bunch of neck bearded retards that think they speak for the world in what would be funny or awesome.
They've tried attacking our infrastructure at my office before and we flick them off our shoulder the like the shit eating flies they are.
It's retarded to be on their side, their actions have caused everyone a lot of grief of a holiday weekend for no reason than their own amusement. If you want to read the 'manifesto' for this attack be my guest:

If you don't think those are the words of children I'd love to know what color the sky is on your world. If you're going to make a statement to the world about why your actions are indeed righteous, try choosing your words a bit better.
'Their propaganda regarding jailbreaking implies that it encourages piracy and thereby makes people lose their jobs, whereas jailbreaking actually just means you are making YOUR device do what it should do. Imagine if Microsoft forced you to use Internet Explorer instead of Firefox or Chrome. Imagine if they denied users from using any other web browser than their own. Many people would obviously be pissed... but then, why aren't you pissed at Sony? '
That just seems a little juvenile to me. While yes, I agree jail breaking should be well within your rights. I also believe the manufacturer is well within their rights to refuse service on a device that is modified outside of the normal working parameters.
This won't be solved by Sony. This will only be solved by a court decision that won't sit in appeals for the next hundred years. It's in the company's best interest for their hardware to only perform the actions that they want it to and how they want it to. This way Sony can manage exactly what kind of experience a user will have with their product and avoid the negative backlash from people who have essentially broken their machines.
Sony isn't doing anything illegal, Anonymous is. It's pretty simple. If they want to jailbreak their systems the law protects them (implicitly, and not explicitly, unfortunately). If Sony wants to push an update that makes their system more difficult to crack, that's also well within their rights and well within the jailbreakers right to crack that too.
I don't know why there's even a discussion on this. The above statement is coming from a Linux admin and a proponent of free software and free distribution of knowledge, but this country flourishes due to the development of closed source software and proprietary hardware and to ignore that fact is just ignorant.
+ repAny legit points that they may have are negated by their juvenile rhetoric and actions...
I have had my 360 for about 4.5 years and have not had a rrod yet. I don't know if it matters, but I have always had it standing on its side. I need to go knock on some wood now.
Yes, I think that does help quite a bit...
yeah!
