Ernest Aduwa of East London-based Stokoe Partnership Solicitors is representing an as yet unnamed UK member of Lizard Squad, the hacking group that in December 2014 knocked the Xbox and PlayStation gaming networks offline. He argues that the public should focus their frustration at Microsoft and Sony and not his client. He asked: 'How does Sony explain to consumers that with all their profits they aren't able to stop a bunch of teenagers from shutting down their networks?' Mr Aduwa also drew attention to the role hacking groups can play in bringing security flaws to the general public's attention: 'Hacktavist group, Anonymous, helped shed light on Microsoft's new Windows 10, which Anonymous says has some disturbing privacy defaults.'
