    DERP Hacker group

    There is some serious shit going on right now involving some kind of hackers and a streamer on twitch named Phantoml0rd

    "A hacker group called DERP has intermittently taken down multiple gaming sites and servers today. Riot Games' League of Legends servers took the brunt of the attack, as the NA/EU/OCE servers have been down for a good portion of the day, as was the LoL website and forums. The group also managed to take down the Dota 2 servers for a while, as well as Club Penguin, Battle.net, and EA.com."

    Phantom wanted to get in contact which basicily made him the target, it ended with
    "just had an automatic pointed at me, put in hand cuffs and sat in the back of a cop car as I watched as 6 policemen go through my whole house.. will keep you all updated."

    They are not hackers, they just do what everyone does - send TCP packets...

    Targeting gaming sites is pretty low grade "hacking", boring, uninspired and lame.

    DDoS isn't "hacking", and it requires exactly zero skill. These shits are nothing but a bunch of dumb script kiddies thinking they're utter geniuses.

    Unless you pull the same shit on a large scale like this I'd stop pretending to be a know it all...nobody likes a smartass, it's widely known then just guessing someones password is calling hacking nowadays.

    That said, I'm interested in the motivation behind the attack. I never support hack attacks, but sometimes I can understand their thinking when they have a somewhat decent motivation.

    I'm betting half the people claiming these "hackers" are kiddies don't even know what they are talking about and just copy/paste whatever they have read since that last "hacker" group...I can't remember their name. :P A criminal is a criminal, no matter how much skill it takes.

    Hey guys did you know that DDoS isn't hacking? I only say that because I wasn't sure 6 people on the front page saying the same thing was enough.

    DDosing isn't hard but not getting caught doing it to big companies can be, it's amazingly annoying anyways... I was going to play some duo ranked in league and the queue was taken down after the very first game <.<

    You said WHAT?!

    Even though Phantoml0rd claims he does not SUPPORT their intentions as I understand it, I believe he'll be in for a little shitstorm the coming days/weeks.

    PhantomLord is the guy this DERP group/wtv targeted, because he had a lot of viewers at that moment. The others are the ones that belong to DERP I guess, and the BITCOIN MAN said they did it 'for the lulz'. So, there's the reason.

    It was unwise of him to give them the platform he did.
