Individuals suppose they received hacked once more.
The PlayStation Community has been down for nicely over twelve hours now on the time I’m penning this, and the reason being apparent. Sony was hacked similar to in 2011. Or their major workplace in California is being held hostage by Hans Gruber. Or the servers are being DDOS’d.
Or they’re about to announce their acquisition by Microsoft. Or the Saudis. Or Tencent. The issue right here is that no one actually is aware of why PlayStation’s servers are down, given that is the longest they’ve been down in an excellent whereas. We don’t know what the plan is, or when Sony expects providers to be introduced again on-line.
And that’s resulting in rampant hypothesis. Up to now Sony has given little greater than a really non-committal “some customers could be at present experiencing points” on their Twitter account.
What they imply is everybody is certainly experiencing points. Even the PSN standing web page is waffling in its language, concurrently stating “some providers are experiencing points” whereas actually each single service field is ticked pink.
The PlayStation standing account has stated completely nothing in over 15 hours, and the shortage of communication actually isn’t serving to quell individuals’s anger.
It additionally doesn’t assist that the shortage of on-line performance is serving as a reminder to how internet-reliant Sony’s system is. The PlayStation Portal has been functionally bricked in the course of the downtime, even if you happen to’re utilizing it from your personal home on the identical wifi community because the PS5 it’s tethered to. Customers trying to attach their PS5 disc drives to the system will discover that additionally doesn’t work with PSN being down.
On an unrelated be aware, has anybody peeked outdoors and observed all of the frozen water on the bottom? What’s the cope with that?
