Nobody really calls it MAS except locally The truly asinine commentary, lack of coherence in language, and just general unintelligibility lead me to believe it happened here, it happened too easily, and it wasn't particularly high-tech.

jani 0 Report post Posted January 26, 2015 Apparently it's a very famous hacker group.. Doubt they are based in Malaysia. Where did the hackers use "MAS" by the way? Maybe simply because the tweethandle is @MAS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaTan 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) vandals Facebook and Instagram taken offline as Lizard Squad hackers hint at responsibility Facebook and Instagram were both taken offline this morning around 1AM ET, with hacker group Lizard Squad hinting that they may have been responsible. The social network’s help site for developers reports downtime on both Facebook and Instagram's API servers "from 22:10 until 23:10 PST." The note adds that "our engineers identified the cause of the outage and recovered the site quickly."Tinder also reported being knocked offline, sending a tweet earlier this morning saying: "EVERYBODY PANIC! #Blizzard? North Korea? #TindernetApocalypse." The site said that it had recovered an hour later, reassuring users: "PS: Your matches aren't gone, just logout and log back in!" Work messaging client Hipchat was also affected, and claims it is still working on restoring its services.Hacking group Lizard Squad, who previously claimed responsibility for the attacks on Xbox Live and the PlayStation network over Christmas, suggested that they might have had a hand in these recent outages. A pinned tweet on the group's Twitter account simply says "Facebook, Instagram, Tinder, AIM, Hipchat #offline #LizardSquad," while an alleged member of the group tweeted a picture of himself holding a sign saying "dox me" with the caption "For all the mad people." http://www.theverge.com/2015/1/27/7920161/facebook-instagram-down-lizard-squad-hints-at-involvement Edited January 27, 2015 by DaTan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
