They were launching DDoS attacks against many of the biggest gaming companies, and no one was sure who they were or how to stop them. Then, a plot was made, Lizard Squad vowed to take Xbox and PlayStation down for Christmas, so nobody could play. But a new hacker crew was on the scene, FInestSquad, and they promised to stop LizardSquad in their tracks. What happened next was an epic struggle to save Christmas with many ups and downs. This video documents the timeline of Lizard Squad, from how it started, what happened, and how it all eventually came down.
