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.

COYB I've been getting this sort of problems since day one.


What I don't understand is how many times does Microsoft have to go offline before they make there servers more secure?

-Skittle This is really pathetic, anyone with money can DDoS..


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.

How wouldn't building a botnet or irc be hard? But i will admit there's a difference between hackers and everyones slang term hacker.

They should probably change their name if they wan to be taken seriously. And go hack something that really matters like secret files at the FED or White House that would expose real corruption not XBOX Live!

So they attacked servers that have been attacked before to prove that they can be attacked. Logic.
