Or do any research whatsoever. "
I find it highly amusing that it's only the people with blue usernames (and KaosAngel, who's a Sony fanboy anyway) defending them at this point.But please, point me in the direction if this research that I've clearly skipped over, that nulls the fact they've lost my personal details and maybe even my credit card information twice.

Maybe it's because the people with the blue usernames aren't posting in the first article they see without looking anything else up. I'd be a lot more open to what you had to say if you weren't so rude about it.Also, again, research. We still don't have any evidence that the PSN credit card info was even accessed.I declare the word "fanboy" to be a variation on Godwin's law, in that someone will always bring it up. "
Thing is, even if the CC data was not stolen, the fact that such data might be available to the hacker made customers like me angry. I have to go through the hassle of changing both of my CC just because their security was breached. If it turns out that the CC data was in fact not touched by the hacker good, still how long do I have to wait before Sony finally opens the mouth and gives me concrete answer weather or not it was stolen?
I rather not wait, so I went to the bank and applied for a change for both of my cards which in the end is going to cost me money, not much but still. I rather take the risk of changing them as later going through the process of fraud which takes even longer and what not.
Still I can not stress how bad their information is. By now they should know exactly if and what data was stolen and I think it's in their power, to email those accounts that got breached with information "hey your card was compromised", even for the 2007 card, because as someone above mentioned, not every CC number changes when you get a new card. 4 Master Cards already expired for me and all the new cards come with the exact same number, except the CCV is different but that's 3 digits and this means shit anyway regarding security. Same goes for my AMEX.
So yeah I'm pretty disappointed in Sony and they have lost my trust for pretty much ever. Not because they got hacked, that can happen to anyone, but because valuable data wasn't encrypted like it should be, even if it's 20 years old, and the way they are handling this regarding customer information is rather disrespectful at best - info should be on my inbox or on their site DAY-1 of the hack.
