I'm pretty sure they had a CC data breach, my point was even if not this will still be dangerous, in several waves. And I have ZERO trust in Sony ever since their RootKit events last decade ... they bare acknowledged the issue, claimed it was their right to protect the copyright of their DVD movies, and their renumeration to the masses was a coupon for discount on buying MORE Sony DVD movie titles ... I'm sitting wondering how their explanation of this event will continue to evolve ... they are an entertainment company after all ( ...sigh )

I mean even look at Epsilon that was about the same thing, and there is still fallout from that one. Z Edward E.

If you have provided information from your playstations to Sony to download content, you might want to be watching your CC Card information and other accounts very carefully, since your information is probably in the possession of unauthorized parties atm. http://www.ibtimes.com/articles/138557/20110427/sony-playstation-suffers -massive-data-breach-criticized.htm Sincerely, EZ Edward E.
