Actually from what I know anonimous said they didn't do it and when they do something they usually take credit. And they haven't stolen any personal info before. What we probably have is a group of pro Internet thieves trying to buy a swimming pool with your money.

Well good news, the credit cards numbers were encrypted so the hacker(s) can't get to them, unless they break the code.

Well thats good news. But I just read this article. "PSN breach could cost Sony 24 million." This must have been a huge crack.

I think 24 billion is way to big of a number! I read the article and I don't see how all of that could add up to 24 billion.

Actually I heard the data was un encrypted I also heard that there is a reward for info leading to the person. The FBI is also involved.

It also took them a few days to admit they were hacked, so the info is dubious.

So you think a billion dollar company wouldn't encrypt something so important?

I think they should or are supposed to. What I mean is that at this point they will say anything to protect themselves. It's damage control on two fronts. They will try to make sure that the Consumers are at ease while preparing for the lawsuit that is coming, and they are trying to bring their network defenses up.

Quick update:

This has made national news.
Sony has not announced any info about WHO, or if they have been identified or caught.
Whoever did it had free access to every single bit of personal data that had ever been entered, including, but not limited to, names, addresses, email, payment info, etc.
