I'll get straight to the point on this one.
Anonymous has claimed to not have been responsible for the PSN outage that started on April 20th 2011.
While they said that, here are 2 things they've said on April 21st 2011 on their Facebook page:
In one post saying "..you may not be able to enjoy things because of our actions.."
In the other post saying "..Take a break from online gaming for a while... it will help your skills... which by the way are a bit out of order if they are being shackled by the PSN being down. We have no qualms about our actions..."
What seems to be a contradiction that Anonymous claims no involvement in the PSN Attack but says they have no qualms about their actions.

Then, later on May 4th 2011, Sony releases their response to the U.S. House of Representatives saying this:
Keep in mind that Anonops says they hold no responsibility, HOWEVER, they say other Anonymous members could have acted on their own. So it wasn't an official operation from Anonymous, just a side job?
As of right now... It seems clear that Anonymous is responsible for the PlayStation Network attack and the stolen data of millions of PSN Users personal information such as credit card data. Regardless if members of Anonymous acted alone on this, those people are still Anonymous.
Anonymous has not given a response to this yet, but I will keep everyone updated when they do. Any thoughts on this?

Anonymous in a public statement wrote:...Sony is incompetent... While it could be the case that other Anons have acted by themselves AnonOps was not related to this incident and takes no responsibility for it...
