Third Attack Against Sony Imminent This Weekend?

Posted on Friday, May 6 @ 05:01:54 Eastern by


According to an exclusive on CNet, an observer following the Internet Relay Chat channel says that a group of hackers are planning the third attack against Sony this weekend "in retaliation for its handling of the PlayStation Network breach".

While I don't understand why someone would punish the handling of the PSN breach by making the handling of the PSN breach even harder, the group of hackers claim they have "access to some of Sony's servers" to information that CNet's source says "could include customer names, credit card numbers, and addresses".

I'm just numb at this point. With the amount of effort these hackers are putting into taking down Sony, we could have cleaned up Wall Street, or I don't know, anything else far more important.

    The only thing about all of this that is actually annoying me is how many times my PS3 tells me the network is undergoing repairs when I try and watch Netflix.

    I wish I understood data security better. I thought that modern encryption was pretty much impossible to break without a private key?

    Does anyone understand how these guys are doing this?

    my last comment may seem a tad extreme but how many more times will PSN get hacked before this crap comes to an end? and to sony, while i'm greatful for the free games you may offer in the future the one thing I would truly be greatful for would be the peace of mind of knowing my info is secure. so instead of worrying about freebees why not put that energy into making sure our info is secure once and for all?
