lol at the hyperbole in this thread. Did you people just get credit cards and start using the internet last week? I've been buying shit online with a credit/debit card since 1999. I have more online accounts/passwords then probably anyone else here, and most of them have my payment info. I've had my credit card info stolen 3 times, my debit card once. Hell, I had my entire WALLET (drivers license, SS card, all my cards) jacked once and nothing came of it. You call your bank, have them remove the charges, they send you new cards and you move on. It's annoying but hardly the end of the world. There are safeguards at every level against identify theft, and as long as you stay vigilant it's just not going to happen. But whatever, continue overreacting.
This does make Sony look pretty bad though, they should have just never said anything and blamed the whole outage on something else (like I'm sure most companies that this happens to do).
