Xbox Live Status Currently Down And Limited

4.5
Microsoft is reporting problems with its login servers across all Xbox devices.

Users are reporting issues signing in to the service, while browsing the online stores is also proving problematic for some.

According to Paradiger a new hacker group calling themselves “TeamBudyBear” have been claiming on their twitter account to have taken down Xbox Live.

They said:

“We’re doing these attacks to show everyone how bad big company’s care about security. We as teenagers know how to fix their servers. Pathetic.”

It looks like they’re taking down Xbox Live to prove a point. This is a similar reason as to why Lizard Squad did what they did last year.

Money and IT knowledge. It won't be a web stresser, it will be a botnet or IRC, and they aren't exactly the easiest thing to build on the internet. Trust me.

Not sure how that is hard in any way.

On topic: This will always happen, and honestly I don't even know if they did it.

I don't see the point, what do you benefit from this?

It's not really that hard to DDoS so not much of an accomplishment either XD
