Pokmon Go servers crashed shortly after the app launched in 26 new countries. A hacking collective took credit for the attack, claiming responsibility for DDoS-ing the servers. Niantic, the apps developers, did not blame the server meltdowns on a malicious attack. A few hours later, XO, the leader of PoodleCorp, tweeted that crashing the servers was a small-scale test. There is currently no telling if the hacking group was responsible, if the servers went down under the heavy load from legitimate players.”]
