Is anyone else having problems signing in to Live? Can't play MW3 and a bit flummoxed.

If this is Microsofts way of getting people to buy the Xbox One, they can stick it.

Maybe this is a good reason for governments of all countries to impose maximum life imprisonment to hackers once convicted.

DDOS isn't exactly hacking. It's like sending someone 1,000,000 letters on one day. The postman just can't get them all through the door.

Or are they doing something else?

They are DDOS'ing. According to some nerds, to do the kind of attack they've launched would cost thousands of dollars in resources, Virgin Squad claim that they are being financed by "interested parties". Any "interested party" who would support a group that tweet bomb scares and landed themselves on the FBI radar must be pretty crooked, or stupid.
