i probably get trolled for this but i think they did deserve it.
what I'm sorry about is all the users whose CC data and etc were 'borrowed'... they didn't deserve it.
sony just.... well, they started it. If you build something and sell it to people, you have absolutely no right to cripple it afterwards no matter what the ToS says about their rights...
and i don't mean just linux.
take it this way:
(even if)they deserve it,
WEE(at least the ps3 owners) don't,
they are suffering
wee are suffering.
if they are screw
wee are screwed.
then why are some people still supporting these childish action again?
i mean it's alright to protest, hell, DDoS and stuffs all you want, i don't mind the server being down. but some ppl's CC is on the line here lol.
Quote:Security Expert: Sony Knew Its Software Was Obsolete Months Before PSN Breach
In congressional testimony this morning, Dr. Gene Spafford of Purdue University said that Sony was using outdated software on its servers — and knew about it months in advance of the recent security breaches that allowed hackers to get private information from over 100 million user accounts.
According to Spafford, security experts monitoring open Internet forums learned months ago that Sony was using outdated versions of the Apache Web server software, which "was unpatched and had no firewall installed." The issue was "reported in an open forum monitored by Sony employees" two to three months prior to the recent security breaches, said Spafford.
Spafford made his comments in a hearing convened by the House Subcommittee on Commerce, Manufacturing, and Trade. Sony was invited to participate in the hearing, but declined to attend. In a letter to the committee, Sony said it has added automated software monitoring and enhanced data security and encryption to its systems in the wake of the recent security breaches.
"If Dr. Spafford's assessment is accurate, it's inexcusable that Sony not only ran obsolete software on servers containing confidential data, but also that the company continued to do so after this information was publicly disclosed," said Jeff Fox, Consumer Reports Technology Editor.
