Re: Sony Engineers Investigating as PS4 Goes Offline Again

@GypsysPearl It's not that simple! Lets see if I can explain to you and others, with my limited english, how this attacks are made.

It's not that this LS are, themselves, connecting to the PSN from a specific place. What they are probably doing is buying a bunch of bots to make them connect at the same time to the PSN. This bots are simple computers of normal people infected with this bots (some king of a virus), even you could be one of this bots without even knowing, even PSN users could have this bots installed in their PCs.
To PSN servers there is no difference from a connection from a real person or from a bot, and it's literally impossible to track the LS guys trough connecting data from this connections, because, like I said before, it's just normal people with their PCs infected with this bots nor the real LS morons.

Sony could buy more servers to try to mitigate the attacks, but at the same time those morons could also buy more bots.
Also it's wrong to call them hackers, they only need money and to know where to buy these bots.

Hope my explanation was understandable.
