Sony admits utter PSN failure: your personal data has been stolen

Alone, this data may indeed mean next to nothing.

In aggregate with other data, and perhaps unique knowledge, however, this information, if stolen, could possibly be used to verify places of employment, where you live, and what times you can be found exactly where...thus, you could easily be targeted for theft, or worse.

You can defend this shit all you want, it's still not kosher what they did. I know it's not just them, but it's still not right.

I don't care what Billy does, if Billy jumped off a bridge...
