While I dont blame the hackers for this crap, although someone obviously got into Sony's servers and took some information.  I am not going to blame Geohot and all those other morons for this.

But what i dont get is placing the blame squarely on Sony for this. Sure there security wasnt the greatest and should have been better for the PSN servers.  But they werent the ones who broke into it and took information.   It would be like blaming a bank for a robbery that happened on a their vault that wasnt completely secure and ignoring the robbers who actually did it. Just because it wasnt completely secure doesnt make it right that they did this. In the end its still the fault of the hacker who broke into the PSN service and took information that wasnt his.

It is Sony's job to take their customers' faith in their network seriously and prevent this from happening in the first place. The guy who did it is certainly a dick but if someone steals from my bank, I'm going to blame the bank if it comes back to me. It's part of the promise they made to me by taking my money and keeping it "safe".

So basically all you are arguing is that you dont believe that Sony took network security seriously for the PSN.  And we should put the blame on them because of it?

Would it be wrong to? I mean peoples credit card info is out there, that shit should have been locked up tight as hell. I got lucky and got a new card number because mine was compromised already. I put blame on both parties but just a little more on sony.
