Hm. So I'm paying Microsoft sixty bucks a year, and in return, they'll prevent week-long hacker-induced network crashes from stealing my identity. Suddenly Xbox Live doesn't seem like such a bad idea.
Sony Still Unsure About Credit Card Leak on PSN
- Thread starter Andy Chalk
- Start date
Usually I don't let websites and stuff store my credit card info because of things like this. However, I think PSN automatically stores it, whether you want it to or not, right? Seems like grounds for suits there...
Hopefully I remembered to delete mine, but not sure.... and there's no way for me to check until these bombaclots fix the network.

Whether Anonymous is responsible doesn't even matter really. They aren't thieves. They never worked to shut down the entire network previously, they harassed by shutting down websites.
They didn't do it.
But, Sony can't confirm, nor deny if any credit card or identity information was taken. They simply acknowledge that it was a possibility.
Here is a story: Illiteracy strikes EscapistMagazine.com! No one can read anything but the sensationalist titles of the poorly written articles!

Are you seriously telling me that in nearly a week, you made almost no fucking effort to figure out if the personal information of your 70 million users is in jepoardy? Really?! I don't care whatever Sony says regarding the situation. There's literally no fucking excuse as to why Sony couldn't have made sure that our account information wasn't leaked during the downtime.
Shit happens when hacks are involved.
I'll watch for suspicious charges and report them to my bank. Or my bank will call me about suspicious charges...

Thing I don't get about Anonymous, rather the concept of it: If someone talks about "going after members of Anonymous" roughly 80% of the responses are "Anon is not a group" or "everyone is Anonymous," yet when stuff like this happens people will quickly point out that the perp is not part of Anonymous.
...Which is it?

I can't wait to see them try to use my RECHARGABLE PREPAID CARD and get denied a million times!!! I'LL GET THE POPCORN!!! =D
I like how people are acting like this is the worst thing to happen since Hitler. This crap happens all the time to different companies. This is the first major problem the PSN has had and its a free service. The only people that have any legitimate complaint are PSN Gold members and I wouldn't be surprised if Sony gives them a week free. In a digital world shit is going to go down. Deal with it.
If you are truly concerned about your credit care info, make a 3 minute phone call to your bank and have them get you a new card. They do that free of charge.

I, too, hate being left without a good reason to fume. Therefore, I'm always on the look-out for reasons. Thankfully, I've found that if you look hard enough, sooner or later you'll find all the reason you need.MetroidNut said:Oh, good, I can go back to fuming at Microsoft in peace.JDKJ said:
I love that one, even if you have to watch the unrated cut to get the real one.mireko said:

I just turned on my PS3 for the first time since Heavy Rain last year and because of this issue I cannot register my game to get some random freebie in my 360 version of Dragon Age II.
Ay ya yai!
why do they keep thanking us for our patience..
I'M NOT PATIENT.
I hope a angry mob torches the place!! #@$@%
rage.

I just had a mental picture of some kid getting his foot run over by all the tires of a big-ass tractor-trailer and thereafter jumping up and down on his one good leg in the middle of the intersection. And I ain't gonna lie . . . the thought of it made me LOL.Baresark said:
Okay... what the hell does that picture have to do with anything? I'm just saying.
Having your credit card number stolen (which MOST users use to get DLC) is a pretty big deal dude.Jodah said:
Well, shit, if the site's down, then it's technically impossible to present their certificates to a browser. Therefore, the browser's gonna treat them as a suspect site. It's got nothing to do with "trust."beema said:Oh, btw, I just went to the PSN website to see if I could login to my account, and this happened:
LOL
you suck Sony
