Once again, back to the "everyone else is doing it" fallacy. If "other companies" are doing the same thing, then I look forward to bashing them out too when their info is breached.

Here are the main points:

- Apache had an update available for the past 11 months. In fact, they had 2

- Sony didn't implement it

- Hackers used a well known exploit fixed by said updates to get to sensitive information.

 

No ifs, buts or whats. That is negligence, full stop. Are you going to defend BP next? "Well, Exxon also don't provide routine maintenance to their oil rigs. BP doesn't deserve this!" Your stance is a goddamn joke!

The fact that you are only bashing Sony when dozens if not hundreds of companies did the same thing is a joke

Then tell me the companies, and make sure you provide the proof that the hack was from the cause of an exploit that was fixed 11 months ago.
