YouTube DDOS Attack
Hacking group named The Grinch Squad are now attacking YouTube after attacking Xbox and PSN. The hacking group reported that “YouTube may be experiencing some problems while we test”. It seems like they are not done, and have more attacks on the way. YouTube seems to be down only at some parts, some known areas are Minnesota and Florida.
Back to preparations. We'll be back later or tomorrow. #TheGrinchSquad

In an interview with the group, they reported that they are attacking firms because they can.
Not only they are attacking other website and have plans but they have declared war on fake Phantom Squad. It has been confirmed that they have stopped attacking YouTube now. If you were planning to try your new games before Christmas, there might be issues with that as well. As they will attack Xbox and PSN on Christmas Eve. Offline gaming? Spend time with your family? What will you be doing this Christmas?
