After a couple of outages in late January, PS4 users around the world had difficulties signing into their consoles yet again.
Thousands of complaints were lodged via social media and elsewhere about being unable to sign into Sony’s servers. The outage has been fixed, according to the the official PlayStation service status page.

PS4 users on social media were none too impressed, either:

Called PlayStation to let them know PlayStation Network was down. Guy said “we know.” I replied “I know.”
Good times. #playstationnetwork #sony #Playstation

@PlayStation Maybe give the community something back for all the server issues? Before I made the move from @Xbox, I never had any network issues. #retweet #XboxLive #playstationnetwork #Playstation #gaming
