    Holy crap, it has. Yikes.
    Still can't change passwords or use the store.

    “Unfortunately this also means that those who are still trying to change their password via Playstation.com or Qriocity.com will be unable to do so for the time being. This is due to essential maintenance and at present it is unclear how long this will take. In the meantime you will still be able to sign into PSN via your PlayStation 3 and PSP devices to connect to game services and view Trophy/Friends information.” - Sony

    It's only down due to the fact that they've discovered a possible exploit.
    It has NOT been hacked and it never has been fucking hacked.

    Nope, some faggots need to watch their mouthes before they go talking about shit they don't understand. =I
    The way they FOUND all the information did not involve any sort of brute-force hacking or manipulation of PSN, they found the info by looking at things that WEREN'T hidden.

    So if its not technically called hacking, what do you call an illegal and unauthorised entry into their system to get access to stuff like credit card details?

    Second time wasn't hacking. First time was.

    The first time is arguable but as I've said, that data really WASN'T hidden.

    So if its arguable why are you saying its NEVER been hacked and saying faggots need to shut their mouths?

    Not really arguable, it may not have been hidden but they still got into a place they weren't suppose to.

    Because my wang keeps falling in.

    Because everybody is yelling "HAX" when they have no idea what's going on!

    Oh yes, sneaking into somebody's house is also the same as lockpicking.

    Sneaking into someone's house is still against the law. If it's not hacking then what is it? They manage to get into their system and steal info

    Yeah, but still

    Though i guess Sony isn't really calling it a hack
