I“Sony has finally come clean about the “external intrusion” that has caused the company to take down the PlayStation Network service, and the news is almost as bad as it can possibly get,” Ben Kuchera reports for Ars Technica. “The hackers have all your personal information, although Sony is still unsure about whether your credit card data is safe. Everything else on file when it comes to your account is in the hands of the hackers.”

So, hackers now have all your personal data and may have your credit card numbers. Sony is not sure. This looks like a real screwup. I wonder when Sony will be called in front of Congress.

Nobody was put out by Apple’s bug. Sony’s recommendation is to change your passwords else where if they are the same as the Playstation Network and to get new credit cards.

Isn’t that special! This is going to be one huge lawsuit.
