Then why do we do it? If we all refused to pay they wouldn't charge! :-{)

This just keeps getting better and better!

Are they capable of running a secure network?

If you own a Sony Walkman, it's probably best to take the batteries out of it just in case.

You gotta wonder how tightly woven Sony's networks are and whether the Sony Reader eBookStore, SonyStyle and other sites are immune.

ha, no doubt! It's going to take a lot for them to recover from this.

I have a really great free gaming network.

It's called A PC WITH INTERNET ACCESS. :@

I remember the good old days when we didn't need centralised authentication servers. (and when I had a super-fast uni connection)

You find a handful of favourite servers, store their details, and then it doesn't matter if the server providing the list goes down.

*insert big long angry rant*

It wouldn't let me log in with my password to change it to a new one :S Just had to go through account recovery, which was surprisingly straightforward. If anyone gets access to my email account they'd be able to get all my last pass passwords in about 30 seconds :|

 

I posted the link above before I'd read the details, but at least it seems they're being hyper sensitive and informing people as soon as possible about a possible breach, rather than waiting a week like Sony :@

That's what I thought and I appreciate the way they are dealing with it. I love the service so I'll continue to use it unless something on the Sony scale would happen!

An observer of the Internet Relay Chat channel used by the hackers told CNET today that a third major attack is planned this weekend against Sony's Web site. The people involved plan to publicize all or some of the information they are able to copy from Sony's servers, which could include customer names, credit card numbers, and addresses, according to the source. The hackers claim they currently have access to some of Sony's servers.


Oh dear.

And

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 Gene Spafford of Purdue University said that Sony was using outdated software on its servers — and knew about it months in advance of the recent security breaches that allowed hackers to get private information from over 100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According to Spafford, security experts monitoring open Internet forums learned months ago that Sony was using outdated versions of the Apache Web server software, which "was unpatched and had no firewall installed."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.

I read that yesterday and couldn't believe it! They run a multi-million dollar network and can't keep it updated. I run a dumb little blog and check it daily for updates!

While I kinda agree with you, I also see big problems with the amount of testing and so on needed when you roll something out to the kinds of servers that Sony runs. That's still no excuse though to not at least have their firewalls configured.

Usually a network like that would have a test lab where they would test updates before rolling them out to live machines. It would only require a few physical machines or a virtual environment to do it.
