I have ordered plenty of things online that didn't require the 3 digit number on the back of your card.
That's what I disagree with.
Edit:
And I am assuming that you are joking about MS paying someone to do this. That might explain some disagrees.
"Everybody keeps talking about "how sony handled it" but dont you think that taking psn down as soon as they learned of the intrusion was the right move???"
I can't disagree.
"It took them 6 days to disclose the nature of the intrusion because they were investigating and had no knowledge of what was affected... I really don't think that sony did anything wrong.. But thats me.."
Are you seriously going to kee...
I look at the situation as a whole.Blame goes to both parties IMO.
The hackers get all the blame for causing it, but Sony gets part of the blame for how they handled the situation.
Fnboys all say how everyone should know that this is going to happen everywhere...which is true. If we all know its going to happen everywhere then why was there such a poor response to it.
I don't think Sony is the scapegoat this gen at all. For this situation...
"I most certainly did not, but it's not like returning the console is going to solve the problem. Plus, once the psn is coming back online it's presumably going to be more secure and reliable, so I don't see why I shouldn't use it anymore"
Did you think it may not be meant solve any problem? Instead they are just not happy about what happened and potentially unaware that it could happen on XBL as well?
"The reason I suppose they...

"I mean, I'm not happy either about not being able to play in the last few days, but it's not like it's going to be that forever - AND I have a social life. But maybe someone just doesn't"
Did you forget the part about personal info being compromised??
"Come on, this gives the idea of how "sick" some people are about gaming.."
"Sick" enough to completely leav...
lol @ Bin Laden = Hacker
I guess my sarcastic meter was malfunction then lol.
I see it now though.
My fault.
@Nothing
I disagree.

@ALFAxD
People hacking for monetary gains didn't start with anonymous.
Edit:
Nor will it end with Anon.
@Nothing below
Child pornography is illegal. He used hacking to try and stop it.
Well my CC and account info hasn't been compromised on XBL yet so...
Why is everyone assuming Anon did this?
They clearly stated that they had nothing to do with this, plus they have claimed every other "trick" they have played on Sony.
Not only that, it would completely go against everything they have said they stood for.
I'm not saying Anon didn't do this, but quickly labelling them as the scapegoat doesn't seem right.
I just posted the first part of the article.
$77 million people wont all get money stolen, but there is a chance for some...I think that goes without saying.
@Scyrus
I agree that most of the blame centers on the hackers, but Sony should be party to blame, just like MS was when Live was taken down.
PSN is down for 6 days and counting....Sony wins?
Come on.
"I don't understand why people are getting so angry at Sony."
I think people are pissed because it takes 6 days to send this email:
http://blog.us.playstation....
Great email....six days late.
We would probably get some sort of update on what happened less than 6 days after the fact.
Maybe something similiar to this:

Here is a copy of what you would get.
Wow
"We have discovered that between April 17 and April 19, 2011, certain PlayStation Network and Qriocity service user account information was compromised in connection with an illegal and unauthorized intrusion into our network. "
The...
xmb and psn integration is absolutely terrible
10 second trophy sync everytime you get a trophy
non-global invites
no x-game chat
That would be worth my $5.00 a month, even though I actually haven't paid over $40/year once.
And that's besides the point. If you didn't notice I wrote a bunch of other stuff you conveniently ignored.
You are still paying for a full month of access...on top of the discounted games and "goodies".
If it had Wii instead of 360 on that sign you wouldn't have a problem with it.
Edit:
Believe it or not, not everything is fanboy motivated.
@paintsville
Wow, thanks for breaking the news chief...
