| Apparently, the firm is claiming Anonymous were responsible for the attack, as a file named Anonymous was found on one of Sony’s servers with the words “We are Legion” attached to it. |
Really? You can pin the blame with a text file? :)
|
Really? You can santify them from blame just because one guy said it wasn't them?
Anon is loose nit group with no leader or structure. just because the guy who did the youtube video didn't do the hack doesn't mean the guy who did the hack didn't do it because in support of anon. frankly there is no way to for even anon to know if anon did it at this point.
yes, the hacker could have left that file to frame anon. but also yes, it could have been someone who believes they are anon.

I am not saying it can't be anon. I am just saying, that's a flimsy piece of evidence.
|
gotcha, well i can agree with that. but we all know sony would love to have this pinned on anon so if it is the only evidence it will be the evidence they produce.
i wonder if any laws will be added/changed based off of this. hackers that were upset about not being able to hack the ps3 just may find themselves a lot worse off becase of this if congress decides to change laws to protect big buisiness.

Not sure but I thought I saw an article that Austriala was going to be changing some of its security laws. Congress should be concerned about protecting consumers not Corporations. But i would not be suprised if that is the route they go.

i'm not sure what you excatly meant by this part ... protect consumer rights to modify their property?
i don't think congress will see it like this. they will see the millions of consumers that had their private information stolen. i imagine if any laws are passed it will be to A) regulated minimum security standards for business B) stronger more comprehensive laws to prevent hackers from hacking.
