Lizard Squad is posting about their DDOS attack on twitter via @LizardMafia. They are forcing Sony and Microsoft to read their statements for them to stop the attack.

EDIT: It seems @KimDotCom is working with @SavagexCOD (Lizard Squad Member) to get the network back online in exchange for lifetime mega.co premium membership vouchers.

Kim Dot Com: Hi @LizardMafia, I want to play #Destiny on XBOX Live. I'll give your entire crew Mega lifetime premium vouchers if you let us play. Cool?

Lizard Squad: Attacks have stopped momentarily, awaiting @KimDotCom's response.
