Playstation Network outage

[Rico]

The article below says all should be back up & online by the end of this week.  Now, why do I not believe them?

Hard to believe a company that hasn't kept it's timetable right so far.

Well, everything is suppose to be back up - at least for right now.

Not PSN, but more apparent Sony data breaches.

Already infamous for defacing PBS's website earlier this week, cracking outfit LulzSec today claimed the scalp—whatever remains of it—of Sony. This time, it's Sony Pictures Entertainment, the movie-making division.

Hmm, note to self, when ticking off the hacking community, make sure my own house isn't made out of glass....

I'm starting to wonder how much of this is actually Sony and how much is just the fact that they seem to be the target of choice at the moment. If someone (or a group of someone's) made a concerted effort at another target, how long would that stand?

Why do poeple have to be so stupid to want to do anything like this. It's crazy.

Well, it seems I finally could get into the PS store today.  Downloading my first free game right now (slowly), "Little Big Planet."
