PSN em baixo :: 75 milhões de users ficaram e ainda estão OFFLINE

Web chaos as Amazon cloud failure crashes major websites... and Playstation Network goes down AGAIN

Não não são os Anonymous (esses têm algo MAIOR e mais complexo na manga), é mesmo culpa dos servidores sub-alugados da $oney... Consola BUG no seu melhor,,, AGAIN!

Thousands of businesses and major websites hit by cloud outage

• 75million gamers affected as PS Network drops out, and the problem won't be fixed for a 'day or two'
  

It's supposed to be the cheap and safe way for internet-based companies to outsource data.
But
Amazon's much-vaunted cloud network took a big hit yesterday when it
crashed, taking a host of web 2.0 companies - including Reddit, Quora,
and Hootsuite - down with it.The rare phenomenon came on the same
day as the massive PlayStation network went offline after an
unexplained outage, which officials say could take another day or two to
put right.





Embarrassing apology: Location-based service
SCVNGR, one of the sites affected by the by Amazon's network cloud
outage, tweeting an apology to users

Sites across the U.S. went offline for up to 12 hours yesterday as
Amazon's northern Virginia data centre was hit by a series of outages.The centre is one of five that supports its huge EC2 network, an elastic cloud computing service.

Thousands
of businesses use the cloud to store their data, and it hosts a number
of U.S. websites, including location-based website Four Square, news
aggregator Reddit and Twitter client Hootsuite, which all went down for
periods yesterday.One location-based service, SCVNGR, tweeted:
'The sky is falling! Amazon's cloud seems to be down (raining?) so we're
experiencing some issues too. Be back soon!'



Crashed: Four Square and a number of other social media sites hosted by Amazon's cloud were also forced to post apology notices




A most vexing question: Q&A site Quora was ironically left with the greatest puzzle of all - why its site was down


Question and answer site Quora posted: 'We'll be back shortly, we hope. Sorry - it sucks for
us too. We'd point fingers, but we wouldn't be where we are today
without EC2.'

And Hootsuite posted a 'homepage down' message reading: 'Owls need a break sometimes too. We'll be back in action shortly - in
the meantime go outside and flap your arms around, you may find that
flying ain't very easy.'
The outages began Thursday morning just before 5am New York
time. According to Amazon, an early-morning 'networking event' caused a
cascade of problems.EC2 is designed to cope with giant traffic spikes, of the type Amazon experiences during its pre-Christmas rush in December.
But this morning the company said a networking glitch made its
storage volumes automatically create back-ups of themselves, filling up
storage capacity and causing connectivity issues.


'A black eye': Thursday's outage was described as an embarrassment to Amazon

Game off: The PlayStation Network, which allows
gamers to play online was down all day Thursday and predicted it would
be offline on Friday

Ten hours after the cloud first went down, it wrote: 'A number of
people have asked us for an ETA on when we'll be fully recovered.


'Our high-level ballpark right now is that the ETA is a few hours.
We can assure you that all-hands are on deck to recover as quickly as
possible.' After 12 hours, the problem was fixed in all but one U.S. zone.Amazon's
famously large server capacity is said to be impossible to crash, after
attempts by the group 'Anonymous' tried to take it down in December.But the outage is likely to shake clients' faith in the cloud computing service, billed as a safe and reliable tool.
'Thank you very much for
your patience while we work to resolve this matter. Please stay tuned to
this space for more details, and we’ll update you again as soon as we
can'



Jason Glassberg, an online security expert, told CNN the affair was 'a big ol' black eye' for Amazon.
He
said: 'He said: 'Amazon has worked long and hard to convince folks that
their services were robust. This does not help the cause.'
Meanwhile 75million gamers were left frustrated after the PlayStation Network went down.
The outage, which is not believed to be connected to the Amazon problem, began at 9.30pm on Wednesday night.The
following morning, Patrick Seybold, the senior director of corporate
communications and social media, wrote on the company's blog: 'While we
are investigating the cause of the Network outage, we wanted to alert
you that it may be a full day or two before we’re able to get the
service completely back up and running. 'Thank you very much for
your patience while we work to resolve this matter. Please stay tuned to
this space for more details, and we’ll update you again as soon as we
can.'It's the latest in a string of problems for the network,
which went down several times at the end of February and suffered
outages throughout March.Furious gamers left comments including 'I hope it's not related to those hackers. This has got to stop!'The
message referred to an attack by hacking outfit Anonymous - the same
group which tried to take down Amazon last year - following Sony's
lawsuit against another hacker, George Hotz.But in a post on its
Facebook page today, Anonymous wrote: 'ATTENTION: For everyone coming
here complaining about the PSN or inquiring about it, We Do Not Know
What Happened. This is not the work of Anonymous.'

Citação :

One out of FIVE data centres goes down and down go the whole network?
Either this is one of the least robust networks there are or the
explanation given is somewhat delirious.... - KeMa, Antibes, France,
22/4/2011 10:13 ///////// It's up to the users to decide where they want
their servers based. The centre which is down just happens to be the
most popular. Whilst Amazon is obviously to blame for this mishap
(though, technical glitches happen, whoever's they are), it's the site
owners who decided to put all their eggs in one basket. If they'd spread
their servers out over numerous Amazon's data centres, which are
available in three different continents, they wouldn't be down right
now.

Mal esteja em condições (os servers sub-alugados) a merd* da consola BUG, vem outra novidade fresquinha!

Anonymous atacará a Sony
(Actualidad, PS3)

Han declarado que volverán a realizar sus ataques cuando PSN vuelva a estar activo

Anonymous, el conocido grupo "ciberactivista" que se ha hecho conocido en la red por sus ataques a empresas y entidades como Sony, el ministerio de cultura o la web de la SGAE, ha vuelto a declarar que iniciarán un ataque contra Sony por segunda vez.

Anonymous ha declarado que iniciarán su ataque una vez que el sistema Playstation Network
vuelva a estar operativo, pero que en esta ocasión, no planean realizar
dicho ataque al sistema online de la compañía y si realizarán otra
serie de actos contra la compañía por sus diferencias con GeoHot.

Playstation Network lleva inoperativo más de 24 horas
debido a una parada de emergencia que podría durar un par de días más,
según fuentes de la propia Sony.

Nao foi hackeada? nao foi o geohot? ps3 e uma treta :S

Ponto actual da situação:

Pues no va a tener que pagar indenizaciones amazon a las compañian ni
nada...segun parece se "llenaron los discos duros" y se cayo en sistema

Saves podem ter sido perdidos. Os ego-gamers e fanáticos dos troféus, podem começar a treinar o choro.

Afinal o ps3 nao foi hackeado?

Anon não vai atacar mais a PSN

Atacando ou não (ainda não veio o GRANDE ataque que se espera), a $soney deu um tiro no pé (daqueles bem grandes), talvez o paradoxo da consola BUG em portugal deixe de existir, e tenhamos o pessoal que compete na XBOX, pode acontecer ou não, mas a $oney ajudou à migração, quanto ao fanboy e singleplayer gamer, ganharam de certeza uma sensibilização para o tema.

É incrível como é que uma grande como a $oney AINDA não tenha resolvido os seus problemas internos, e a maneira como tratam a comunidade gamer (que ficou sem luz durante... dias...)... é de facto lamentável tratar as pessoas como ignorantes imbecis com desculpas parvas. Têm medo/receio de cair do pedestal (bem à Japonesa), manterem o orgulho até ao fim, tal qual fukushima, mas quem se lixa é a malta.

$oney a perder pontos, mais uma vez, fantástico!

Eu na última semana andava a jogar... (só e apenas) PS3... agora, vou tornar a desligar e a ligar dezenas de cabos, e como sou preguiçoso, vou ficar sem PS3 por uns tempos. Ok sem noobs para o youtube, mas de volta à exigência do jogo/adversários, à resolução gráfica a sério, à pallete de cores viva, à dashboard social, à fluídez do framerate, à ausência de breaks, à leitura do jogo do disco... Obrigado $oney, eu até tentei, mas tu empurras-me, a marley alpha dog e o SEU fórum oficial da $ONY portugal corrupto empurrou-me, a infinity ward empurrou-me, o teu "super" hardware virgem inexplorado também... enfim... que tristeza de consola de 600 euros.

Sony 'Incompetent' Says Hacker Group Anonymous



Posted April 22, 2011 by James Brightman












Sony's PSN outage is persisting,
and while PS3 owners have been left seemingly in the dark as to what's
actually going on, the hacker group Anonymous seems to be having a jolly
time with the situation, issuing a new press release that calls Sony
incompetent. We've posted the press release in full below.

Última Hora:
La Semana Santa se le está complicando a Sony, ya son
más de 24 horas las que lleva caído el servicio PlayStation Network a
nivel mundial. Se estima que más de 70 millones de usuarios se han
quedado sin conexión, y la compañía japonesa todavía no ha dado detalles
acerca del origen de la avería, ni cuánto tardarán en solucionarlo.

Las
declaraciones oficiales más recientes provienen del Twitter oficial de
PlayStation Blog Europa, en el que se afirma que "No tenemos nueva
información, lo sentimos. Escribiremos en blog.eu.playstation.com
cualquier novedad". No es consuelo para los miles de usuarios que en
España han visto como su PlayStation 3 sólo decía "Se ha producido un
error. Se ha cerrado su sesión de PlayStation Network (Error 80710A06)"
al intentar conectarse a internet.

Pero este error no se limita a
nuestro país ni afecta únicamente al juego online. También falla PSN en
Estados Unidos, Australia, Japón y otros puntos de Europa. Podríamos
estar hablando de un problema con los servidores centrales de Sony,
dejando sin servicio, en ocasiones de pago, a todos sus usuarios.

Error 80710A06 en PlayStation Network

Además
de no poder disputar partidas a través de internet, los usuarios de
PlayStation 3 se han quedado sin otras funciones, como acceder a Steam,
PlayStation Store, PlayStation Home, así como cargar las partidas
guardadas en la nube, un novedoso servicio que inició Valve con 'Portal
2'. Gracias a él, los jugadores podían acceder a sus partidas guardadas
desde cualquier consola, ya que éstas se descargaban a través de
internet.

Ante estos problemas surgen las dudas de si merece la
pena depender de servicios centralizados y "en la nube", que si bien
reportan muchas ventajas a los usuarios, aumentan el riesgo de que un
fallo ocasione graves problemas a todos los jugadores.
Respecto al
origen de estos problemas, lo único que podemos afirmar con seguridad es
lo que Sony ha declarado en su Blog Oficial, que se trata de un
mantenimiento y que no pueden asegurar cuándo será reestablecida la
conexión a PlayStation Network. Ciertas personas especulan ya con un
nuevo ataque del grupo Anonymous, aunque varios ciberactivistas lo han
desmentido.

En sus blogs, los miembros de Anonymous acusan a Sony
de usarles como "cabeza de turco" por un problema que nada tiene que
ver con ellos, pues ya se desvincularon hace semanas de los ataques
contra PlayStation Network. Según un usuario que afirma pertenecer a
Anonymous, "Sony, como siempre, ha ofrecido declaraciones poco precisas y
sin sentido sobre el estado de su red, evitando asumir la
responsabilidad a toda costa".

Las medidas de PlayStation España

PlayStation
España no ofrece más información al respecto, y de momento han
propuesto un concurso interactivo de adivinanzas para hacer la espera un
poco más amena a los usuarios, entrando los ganadores en un sorteo de
un juego de PS3, dos juegos de PS2, 3 juegos de PSP y una camiseta de
PlayStation.

Sony has acknowledged that the outage, since late Wednesday,
of PlayStation Network is due to "an external intrusion on our system."
Patrick Seybold, PlayStation's top spokesman, said the service was
taken offline "to conduct a thorough investigation and to verify the
smooth and secure operation of our network services." Still no word on
when the service will be available.
"We are doing all we can to resolve this situation quickly, and we
once again thank you for your patience," Seybold said in an official
PlayStation blog post. "We will continue to update you promptly as we
have additional information to share."
This morning, Seybold wrote that "it may be a full day or two before
we're able to get the service completely back up and running."
PlayStation Network has 69 million registered accounts worldwide.
More than just online multiplayer and access to the PlayStation Store
and streaming video content are affected. Certain Capcom downloadable
titles such as Bionic Commando: Rearmed 2, require a connection to the
PlayStation Network to start up and be played. They are unplayable through this outage.
Seybold's full statement:

An external intrusion on our system has affected our PlayStation
Network and Qriocity services. In order to conduct a thorough
investigation and to verify the smooth and secure operation of our
network services going forward, we turned off PlayStation Network &
Qriocity services on the evening of Wednesday, April 20th. Providing
quality entertainment services to our customers and partners is our
utmost priority.

o live ficou 14 dias....... quero é jogar MK online...

Latest Update for PSN/Qriocity Services


+ Posted by Patrick Seybold // Sr. Director, Corporate Communications & Social Media




We sincerely regret that PlayStation Network and Qriocity services
have been suspended, and we are working around the clock to bring them
both back online. Our efforts to resolve this matter involve re-building
our system to further strengthen our network infrastructure. Though
this task is time-consuming, we decided it was worth the time necessary
to provide the system with additional security.
We thank you for your patience to date and ask for a little more
while we move towards completion of this project. We will continue to
give you updates as they become available.

RUMOR do GRANDE ATAQUE (que se espera dos Anonymous) para breve, muito brevemente:

Base de dados dos cartões de crédito associados aos gamers, deverá começar a ser utilizada indevidamente...

RUMOR DOIS:

Citação :

Por un lado dicen que se han metido muy adentro y han pillado las
cuentas a saco.. Y la demostración sería que están llegando mensajes de
spam por Facebook de usuarios que tenian sus trofeos sincronizados en la
PS3.

Por otro lado, que han pillado las tarjetas de credito (cosa que no se ha confirmado)

Y
por último, que se han puesto a jugar con los trofeos de la gente (y
han añadido alguno o los han borrado), tampoco confirmado.

A modo
de ejemplo, supongo que cuando roban en un banco, antes de abrir al
publico, tienen que tomar huellas de todo y buscar pistas de quien fue
para trincarlos cuanto antes... En los sistemas pasa lo mismo.

Por outro lado: Sendo verdade ou não a desculpa oficial da $oney,
não deixa de ser indignante que um único hacker destrua/sabote toda a PS3, deixando a nú, as evidências que a $oney não protege o cliente.

Citação :

Es un poco indignante que una empresa como Sony, tenga que culpar a un
grupo de activistas de sus problemas de mantenimiento, y no solo eso, en
el hipotetico caso de que asi fuese, Sony deberia ser capaz de evitar
el sabotaje de los servidores, y no estar exculpandose hablando sobre
"posibles ataques o intrusiones externas", no deja de ser algo
vergonzoso para una empresa de su embergadura.

Morreu completamente....


R.I.P

Tem bons jogos para singleplayer offline, não é assim tão mau de todo.

duas semanas mínimo

Citação :

Lo de las 2 semanas lo a leido un amigo mio en psgroove. Y el director
de Sony a dicho que llevara 2 semenas como minimo, por que estan
montando el servidor desde el principio y lo estan reforzando

OMFG 2 semanas? e mesmo a brincar com uma pessoa
