Valve hacked??? Like that has never happened before!!! Would they be so careless to allow this or, for example, let the entire Steam network go down due to a snow storm/power outage in western Washington State?

It's funny that when I did a search on that law, it took me to the Cali DMV for it????? LOL. Also there's a little loop hole in it for them. "The disclosure shall be made in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay, consistent with the legitimate needs of law enforcement, as provided in subdivision (c), or any measures necessary to determine the scope of the breach and restore the reasonable integrity of the data system." Just look up the TJX Security Breach. "The $16 billion retail chain has officially said that a huge amount of information was accessed as early as 2005 (with some of the captured data dating back to 2003), but that TJX officials didn't learn of the breach until December 2006. The company didn't announce the breach until mid-January 2007 due to-according to one credit-card source-a request from the Secret Service because it was actively pursuing a suspect." http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2106149,00.asp So we may not find out the truth for a while. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of RMaioroff Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2007 5:49 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [hlds] Valve Hacking coverup?

Since when has Valve been in California? Last time I checked they were still in Bellevue, Washington. Not that another similar law doesn't apply to them in Washington, or due to the fact that steam sales can probably be construed as taking place in the state where the consumer lives... but the California legislation probably has no jurisdiction on them. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kevin 'Poof' Gerry Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2007 11:51 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [hlds] Valve Hacking coverup? 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.
