I think I'm finally at that point. While I'm a firm believer in Capitalism, I also belive in holding people (and corporations) accountable for their actions.  The lack of security, the removal of promised functionality, and the most grievous error, keeping us in the dark about our personal security has pushed me over the edge. I'm sorry Sony, but you have failed miserably.

Well, good luck with that.

Has a class action been filed yet?

You aren't serious are you? You might want to take a few steps back and take a good, hard look at the situation and then realize its not worth it. And then, you can thank me for calming you down.

Don't be an ass. Nothing is completely secure. Hackers could get into the most hardened and secure system on the planet if they tried hard enough. 

If you want to waste a bunch of money, go ahead : D

To the hacker that has brought Sony to its knees: Please don't steal my credit card. My bank account is low enough as it is, all you'd end up with is $5, some mixed change, and a few dead flies.

Mate GOOD LUCK!! Sony will pull out some Suprise Butt Sex on you! I would only be bothered if PSN was a subscription

Their security was obviously breached, and took the service down to try and help protect everything.  Along the way they are finding out exactly what happened and are trying to tell us as they find out.  Sony is as in the dark as we are I think.  Good luck proving otherwise in court.

good luck!

I think we should be angry at whoever hacked the PSN, not at Sony.

This can only end well.

Guys, it's ok. The Law Dog is here.

I say we create a gang of hackers to stop the hackers that are messing with sony. Those hackers have extended their powers for too long, and they must be stopped for the order of the cyberverse!

This is nothing against the OP but this topic, and most seemingly dumb lawsuits, make me think about the South Park Scientology episode, especially this scene.  
  

Why not sue the hackers?

I did no such thing. But since you mention it, we are kind of better, since we don't have the automatic impulse of suing over dumb shit.
That's right, I said it.

You must be American, because you have a problem with your private information leeking. Nanny state monkeys are used to violations of civil liberties, they wouldn't blink an eye at this.

Actually there is plenty of legal grounds for suing sony.  It is all but guaranteed that a suit will happen and I am sure tons of people will be involved in it.

" Don't be an ass. Nothing is completely secure."

Can I sue Nintendo for their lack of online functionality? And the lack of 1:1 ratio with the Wii Remote when the Wii was released?

there's probably something in the long-ass agreement you have to agree to in order to create a PSN account that covers it.

I'm not sure why you think they would account for something in the fine print that they clearly didn't prepare their network for. "

I'd say having to change your bank account information because of an unprepared-for leak (apparently my autocorrect knew about the plant) but multiplied by several million people should be catalyst enough for Sony to offer some kind of settlement so they don't fucking bankrupt themselves over this.

You should sue them for something worse like PS Home.. I still have nightmares...

" You must be american. "

Good luck, and have Batman!

It is fairly standard liability coverage in most EULA agreements that the information you give the holder is not their responsibility. Also, as people voluntarily gave their information to Sony, there is no civil liberty being violated. 

I don't think Sony has confirmed cards being stolen. I know it seems like a serious situation, and it is, but take some deep breaths and lets see what Sony has dug up.
