I don't know who said it, but these guys have hacked Fox, PBS, and Sony in the last 23 days. Plus that weapon manufactuer was just hacked. It certainly just isn't Sony being hacked...
Sig thanks to Saber! :D

According to gaf there was a website but it was taken down. So i imagine Sony took it down for obvious reasons.

I doubt any other website similiar to sony pictures would have higher security. I dont know why people are questioning sonys security... They should be questioning hackers motivs by making it so public in my opinion... some pro sony hackers should start publisizing all sorts of hack on other businesses to show it aint just sony.

If you want to have more civil discussions, then I suggest you stop being so anti-Sony in all of your posts about the company. People will never take your opinion seriously if they have the knowledge that you are against Sony ALL THE TIME. If I people saw me always talking negatively about Burger King. They wouldn't care about my opinion about their burgers. People just don't care. That's how people feel about you.
When your entire history on a specific company consists of being negative to said company, then your opinion won't have much value to most people, thus no civil discussions. I don't know/understand why all of your posts about Sony are negative, but if you want to have some civil discussions with people, then I suggest you show that you have the ability to see the positive in Sony or at least try to be neutral.
Guys, this isn't a problem with Sony's security. These guys are just professionals, they got through Fox's and PBS' security too.
Sig thanks to Saber! :D

I question both, surely its the hackers that commit an illegal act, but in knowledge of this, you are also liable. When people gives their informations, you need to protect them, its not your fault if it get stolen, but you still need to do your best protecting it. Was Sony doing their best?!? Probably not! But im sure that now they want to put everything up to date. They were working on PSN 24/7, once that completed they will surely work on the other server too. Hence why my questioning, should they put offline everything that contains customer information until its upgraded or is it considered acceptable. If considered acceptable with the industry standard, maybe we should change that, dont get me wrong though, its not Sony's fault to not do more then what the law ask of them.
well i think there is one thing to learn from all this.
COMPANIES, don't piss off gaming hackers

Sony won't go down but it's nice to see someone on this website willing to admit SONY'S attacking GEOHOT was a HUGE MISTAKE. |
Way to misinterpret my post. I didn't say it was a mistake (hence the qoutations around the word), and never said it was a HUGE one. Sony did what they felt was right for their company. Doesn't matter if you agree with it or not, they have every right to do so. The courts are the ones who are to decide what is right and what is wrong. Of course, Geohot didn't allow the court to make a final verdict, as he settled beforehand. But whatever was decided in that court should have been accepted by the hackers, or if they didn't agree, they could have done the mature thing and requested Geohot make an appeal. Instead, they acted like children and tried to hurt Sony in their own way. A way that has brought a public eye on this hacking situation and turned many against the hackers, even though they claimed to be doing it for the consumers. I wouldn't be surprised if the government starts getting stricter with the internet. And really, they should have been doing something earlier. The internet should not be a place for people to just do whatever the Hell they wish, especially when it hurts other individuals.

exactly right. what people need to realize is what sony did was not wrong. they were within their rights doing what they did. it does not give hackers a right to fuck with them. the hackers are the wrong ones. the court system is in place to protect all parties. the consumer rights and the business' property. sony didn't cause any issues among geohot...
