super rich because they are then going to turn around and sell that information anyway.

so....your telling me....one of the biggest companies on the planet that deals with electronics and networking didnt have a firewall up? really? i mean Linksys routers have a disc that installs a firewall for free....and you have peoples credit card information with no firewall?

dont get me wrong, i pretty much use my PS3 as a media player for my tv, play games now and then and watch blurays thats about it so the online play was never my big thing...but...this would bother me if i have my credit card info on there.....

The company i work for, once during a server move we were backing up data and the one networking person turned off the firewall for 18 minutes......18 minutes and he was escorted out of the building by security. The reason he turned it off was because he had to run a simple test that took 2 minutes....so a total of 16 minutes it was free game....on our network that deals with health care information....for this, im pretty sure Sony is going to fire their entire networking group out of a cannon and into a nuetron star.....

Debix identity protection costs $10 a month. Just for the US accounts, 30,000,000, unless SOny is getting an INSANE deal, it will cost them about 3.5 billion dollars for the US accounts alone.

Sony executives laugh at the hackers and sue them.
The engineer rats down in the labs are another story. I don't mean that in any diminishing way mind you.

Sony isn't one person or one combined hive mind. The executives represent the company name but that doesn't mean the people behind the scenes necessarily agree with what's being done and/or said.
The executives probably didn't have a clue. It isn't like they said,"Don't update the apache software." They probably don't even know what Apache is.

30 million but not assuming there are multiple or even dead accounts as well as accounts that do NOT have CC info even on it.

Not to mention, Sony isn't going to come to you about it. It's not like every account instantly gets Fraud Protection. The consumers has to come and get it from Sony, in other words register/apply for it, and also which will probably be a short window of time or something.

Who knows what kind of deal they managed to get too.

These hackers are only helping Sony and are screwing us customers if this keeps up.
