The problem is the media has created a situation of mass panic, we know at this point that the cc data was not taken.

i'm not convinced that the cc data was even the target of these hackers.

the question that people have to ask themselves is why when Xbox Live was hacked in 2007, or Android, iPhone, Windows, etc - why peoples cc data was not taken then? why is it only Sony have been targeted??

the answer i keep coming back to is that cc details were never the intention of the hackers. we were simply led to think our details were at risk... which at this moment in time, we have no evidence that any cc data was taken, or even if that the cc data can be decrypted.

i think this is why Sony have taken so long to notify customers. they were concerned at first, but when they knew our cc data was not breached they decided to let the media run riot with a state of mass panic.

Why??? i think Sony in the last few days have decided to abuse this hack unlike Microsoft, or Apple or any other company, they've decided that this state of mass panic will give them goverment and consumer support to aggressively target any and every hacker who goes near a Sony product. even Annoymous seemed convinced that cc data was at risk.

my point is the reason they didnt notify customers straight away, is because they already knew no cc details were comprimised. now they will use this as a weapon to ligitimise whatever brutal, underhanded tactics they have in store for hackers.

you know this is Crime at a VERY high level?

this is not some "I hacked this or that device" this is THEFT from 35million people.

They have to track those people down!
