Is Lizard Squad responsible for the Xbox Live outage too?

25 Aug 2014

Hacker group Lizard Squad, the organisation who has claimed responsibility for the DDoS attack on the PlayStation Network today, appears to be behind current Xbox Live issues too.

While not actually claiming responsibility as yet, they’ve gone a bit cryptic on their Twitter account.

Steve is the founder of Stevivor, which itself is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’ -- that made more sense back in 2001 when Steve first arrived in the country and Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.

Steve has recently gathered a career's worth of writing on swright.au, his personal portfolio.
