This attack was the first of many. Sony has done the one thing tech companies should never do. They've given people much smarter and more technically skilled than them a cause. I don't want to perpetuate the "basement dweller" stereotype, but the fact is that the people who took the PSN down spend all their spare time at their computer. This wasn't a simple attack. It wasn't just for lulz. The PSN outage was the opening battle of a war.
