PSN (EPIC) Fail!

So...

The Jack Taylor: General Interests Blog will focus on my general interests, which will mainly be about Design, Film, Football and Video Games.  Starting will the latter.

Being a trusty PS3 owner and being a frantic user of sites such as Play.com, Amazon, eBay, iTunes etc. You really don't here about something massive like this, its quite scary actually.

Sony confirm yesterday/today that the PSN has been hacked and somebody has unauthorised access to the personal information of over 3 million users (in the UK alone).  Which is everything from username all the way to credit card/debit card details.

Are they serious?

The PSN is in its 8th day of darkness and Sony decide to just drop 3 lines in a blog that nobody reads!!
all I can say is thank god for IGN.  You've probably still got the casual of casualist gamers are still messin about with their router thinkin its their internet connection at home. I mean sort it out Sony this is 100% unacceptable.  Their should of been a global announcement at the sign of trouble!!
We as consumers will probably have to change the passwords to our e-mails and online accounts for social websites and online stores. Oh and probably have to cancel our credit cards (which could give us a bad credit rating) and change our debit cards which is a massive pain.

As a consumer I feel, Sh@t on and misused.  Just want to say to the fellow PS3 owners this is NOT OK!! do not give Sony the easy way out of this one, make them feel the hard way.

Thanks
JT
