Well that’s only slightly terrifying. Most of the day Sunday, PSN was down due to a denial of service attack, claimed by Lizard Squad.
.@AskPlayStation SORRY ABOUT THE DOWNTIME BUT OUR LIZARDS WERE ALREADY ON COURSE

And then in the top tweet, they claimed a bomb threat on a Sony executive’s plane. Lizard Squad says they’re aligned with The Islamic State, which you may have read about in the news recently. Are they? Who knows – but I seriously doubt this story has ended with one runwayed plane and a DDOS on PSN.
We will provide more information as it becomes available.
