Just after the PSN outage yesterday... 🤔
The other article I linked here in the comments says they've heard rumors it was a DDoS attack. Nothing about potential links, but I have seen the PlayStation thing all over social media posts about it.

I feel bad for people like that. How bad their lives must be.
