I cry when Tor deserves to die
The LizardSquad twitter account (LizardMafia) has made their slogan for their TOR attacks public.
The slogan which they are using for the TOR attacks is:
I cry when Tor deserves to die.
My first guess is that the Lizard Squad was listening to some System of a Down music.
Lizard Squad does not like the “Anonymous” kiddies
The Lizard Squad has been tweeting offensive tweets towards the Anonymous collective. The reason behind this is the fact that Anonymous hacktivists had claimed that they were able to stop Lizard Squad, but it soon was clear that the “Anonymous Kiddies” are not going to be able to take down the Lizard Squad.
Looks like Anonymous still hasn’t done shit. Who’s surprised?

Even the AnonHQ environment is having a hard time to keep track of on which side “Anonymous” currently is.
The Anonymous collective has had their fun years, just like the Lizard Squad is doing now. Anonymous has performed various attacks on targets which were “justified” in the eyes of Anonymous.
Well, Anonymous – here you have your counter part. The Lizard Squad which is taking down the “kiddie” environments.
