Uhm, while Valve may not like stating they were hacked in to... They would be required to by law.
"The California Security Breach Information Act (California Civil Code Section 1798.82), in effect on July 1, 2003, requires companies based in California or with customers in California to notify them whenever their personal information may have been compromised." So, no, I don't think that Valve/Steam has been hacked in to. And, if they have, either they don't know about it, or they are working with the proper authorities to investigate and catch whoever did anything. Also, due to the fact that Valve is a corporation, I'm sure a lot of their financial information is public record... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shawn Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2007 8:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] Valve Hacking coverup? -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Why are you so sure we'd have heard about it by now? I don't think Valve is going to come out immediately and say that they were hacked into, especially if customer's credit card numbers are involved. Do you have any idea how devastating that would be to any company? Let Valve attempt to handle this privately as I'm sure they are, or at least HOPE they are.
