This is there second DDoS attack on Xbox Live this week, Lizard Squad did this same thing this past Tuesday (December 2014). Microsoft has not officially confirmed the downtime/outages via Xbox Live status page, but reports from Xbox Live subscribers on Reddit, Facebook and other social media confirmed the downtime."

Thanks for sharing this Huracan. Although I'm not an active player on Xbox Live, this bothered me still. In fact I'd hesitated before clicking "like", before I realized the news that makes us feel something is important. Awareness is an important aspect to being involved, and I'd actually gotten so into reading the many comments after the article, I wanted to post my outrage at this type of senseless blocking of others and the healthy flow of energy which in turn effects all others like an illness that we hope may never become epidemic.
