Lizard Squad

After the ridiculous drama that went down this week, Daybreak Game Company is starting to get its games' servers back online. Although PlanetSide 2 is still unplayable for many, H1Z1 appears to be back in working order. However, there's a lot more than video games going on right now. John Smedley, the CEO of Daybreak, has been a restless target of Lizard Squad's harassment – and it's only getting worse.

Today, the group of hackers, who claim responsibility for December's major PlayStation Network outage, offered a reward to anyone who would deface Smedley's father's gravestone. Oh, and while they were at it, they went ahead and posted the address, social security number, and banking information of one of his employees.

Forgive us if we seem a bit rash, but when a group of self-proclaimed hackers calls in a bomb threat, takes down two major online networks, and even has a member who refers to himself as a cyber-terrorist, it's probably time to stop calling them misguided tykes.
