Summary of events from a reddit user:

So a guy by the name of FamedGod (https://twitter.com/FamedGod) DDOS's PSN in the name of proving that Sony has shyte security still. Then a group of fools named the Lizard Squad (https://twitter.com/LizardSquad) decide to take credit and take it a step further by threatening that there's a bomb on the American Airlines flight of SOE CEO John Smedley. Edit: As a result his flight is rerouted and now sits on the tarmac being inspected.

Well Anonymous (https://twitter.com/W0rIdPeace) comes to the aid of PSN and AA, telling people that they're working to get PSN up and assuring AA that there is no bomb on the plane. In the mean time FamedGod finds out that LizardSquad has taken credit for his attack and proceeds to release the IPs of all of Lizard Squads members. Anon then tracks the IP of the Twitter account to Washington, DC and now everyone's just waiting to see what the hell is going to happen. Edit: The update so far is that LS is still tweeting out ISIS flags and Jihad hashtags while the FBI is, ostensibly, monitoring the plane inspection in Phoenix.

:ufdup: lizard squad
