I repeat that again, Anon are a non-organization and thus you can't trust those that hide behind its fa?ade. That's how the hacking scene has worked since the 80s, actually. Some might consider themselves the Robin Hood of the digital era, and some are just in it for the money, while circumstances might drive each of those to the other.

Microsoft are probably laying low, hoping they don't draw any hacker attention to them as well.

Well, "trust" may be too strong of a word... I was just hoping that who ever in Anon that did this wasn't after personal details.

PSN Return Delayed, Hackers Publish Stolen Data
Sony on Friday said it would have to further delay the return of PlayStation Network following a massive security breach, just as reports stated hackers posted personal details stolen from a Sony database.

According to Reuters report out of Tokyo, Sony was able to remove those published details from a website, although the report didn't say exactly what website hosted the stolen information.

Personal details of some 2,500 people were posted, including names and "some addresses" that were in a 2001 database. The security breach has affected 77 million PSN and Qriocity accounts, and 24.6 million Sony Online Entertainment accounts.

Who's hating Sony? PSN+ is lousy compensation (not that I really feel entitled to anything). It's like giving your girlfriend a Blockbuster rental on her birthday.

I love it when a few people ruin something fun for everyone else. I don't understand what they are trying to prove here. ok you hacked PSN good for you! now back off. seriously. this is so friggin selfish and stupid.

don't anyone post "welcome to life sport" or anything like that. I know people will do that in life, I just don't understand why they do it. it's sickening.

[CENSORED]!!!!!!!!!

Names and Addresses? Holy [censored].... Let me go get my phonebook.


Reminds me of my other job that has a few thousand addresses on a system drive that anyone with computer access can get\

Not a problem for me, I just put 111010101.

What exactly is the status of the PSN?

Final tests, together with the SOE servers.

Do you have a source, and do you have any idea how long that takes?

Not expecting, just asking. Thank you.

We are going to have to wait till May 31 st to get all of PS back.

Rediculous!

Whatever you do, don't get a Xbox. lololollloo :celebration:

I imagine that simply restoring service is the last thing they'd want to do. I shudder to think of the fallout in the event they re-launch PSN just for this to happen again.
