Ubisoft Suing for DDoS Attacks in Rainbow Six Siege
Ubisoft has filed a lawsuit against ShortNameGame in connection with DDoS attacks on Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege servers. The defendants were said to provide, for a fee, the software needed to carry out the attacks, as well as mock the company's actions aimed at limiting their effects.

As if that were not enough, the defendants were to make fun of Ubisoft's actions, including those aimed at blocking SNG clients' s. As an example, a Twitter entry is given, which is already deleted but was saved in a screenshot (you can see it above), showing what's supposed to be one of many such comments aimed at the French company. This, according to the authors of the lawsuit, clearly shows that SNG was aware of the damage it caused to the company. This is about time and money spent on fighting attacks, but also about the loss of "trust and goodwill" of s, who could thus decide to give up the game.
The bad will of the hackers was also evidenced by the strange action they have taken, as the conclusion suggests, in connection with the expected legal proceedings. On one of SNG's websites there was a message about... its suspension by Ubisoft and Microsoft. In fact, the ment was falsified by the site owners so that the French company "its that it has a problem". It is not clear what exactly they wanted to achieve, but they have certainly managed to enrage the company. It demands compensation from SNG and the cessation of its activities as well as the criminal liability of the group.
