bonus blog

well since we can write about whatever we want for our bonus blog I am going to write about the PlayStation 3 network being hacked. Well I don't own or play ps3 but from what i have heard the ps3 network has actually been hacked by a group named Anonymous. They said they hacked the network because ps3 and Sony were getting to strict and they will let the network run again when Sony lets people do what the want with their ps3's. I find this very interesting that a group like this can manage to take a multi billion dollar network down like this. It makes me wonder how safe any of your information is since everyone probably has some important info on the Internet somewhere. It makes me interested in how they hack networks like this. I really don't know anything about hacking but i kind of want to learn about it because it seems kind of cool to be able to do something like this, not that i would try and really do this tho. Well they are currently doing an investigation and i haven't found out much information else besides that. I don't think they have any solid leads on anyone but i don't really know. I found this video that this group spousal made about why they hacked the network:
