How is it a bad thing?

"a new law which will require companies to disclose info on security breaches to the public immediately."

Sounds great to me. About time governments start demanding some responsibility from corporations.

I was a Sony fan for more than a decade. Had PS1, PS2 and PS3 at launch date. Spent thousands of Euros on games and PSN. Even got a Sony Bravia.

But after they started suing kids and fighting poor people, I'm kinda disgusted.

I hope they end up with younger and more intelligent management insted of those bullies that currently run it.

Looks awesome. But why no local coop?

@Elwenil

Actually, I wouldn't mind. There must be something that man has that I could replicate and use. Why that obsession with getting rich? It only produces greed and depletes our resources. A roof over your head, food (not in the obscene amounts Americans are used to, why be that obese like you folks? Spare some for hungry kids around the world for Christs sake), a car, a nice family, lots of love, kids, pets...that's enough for a decent life.

Als...

LOL we'll end up with countless Uncharteds, Gears and CallOfDuties. Good bye diversity.

"some people actually work for what they get"

As far as I know, poor kids and people around the world work for us. We only do some "virtual" unnecessary jobs just to keep us busy and spending money.

I'm working in a video studio. Doing animations, cartoons etc...it's a nice job, I get paid well, but I know that my work can't compare to what poor people in the rest of the World are going through just to feed their families. And ...

Hackers and Robin Hood both "steal" from the rich and give to the poor.

Kids outside our rich western countries can't afford 60$ for a game.

And our countries are taking advantage out of poor nations and their resources to get rich just like aristocracy did in the old days.

So it's kinda fair.

Why don't they sue them? :)

But copying is not theft, didn't you notice that when you copy something, the person whom you copied it from still has it?

Look at this:

Or should we send everyone to jail for movies and mp3s that they have "stolen"?

If music industry could adapt to the new world, why couldn't the gaming industry?

Hoooraaay! Freedom!!! XD

Not that I'd ever use it or would bother hacking it.

But it's always nice to hear that freedom fighters and Robin Hoods of our age are still there.

You yourself are already spoiled to begin with. You can only think about yourself and your needs, right?

I bet you'd sing a different song if it was you who got sued by a giant corporation.

@WhittO below:

That's exactly what this fight is all about. People should OWN the product they bought and should be free to do with it whatever they want.

The law is not right and needs to change and adapt to a new digital world. ...

They just shouldn't have sued a kid. That was going waaaay too far.

@Dark_king below:
You really think Sony would survive that?

That's what you get when you mess with the people. They backfire. I thought everyone already learned that lesson from endless examples throughout history.

What Sony needs is young and innovative people in management who understand the workings of the new digital world and who know how to make friends out of hackers and capitalize on that.

Great, free roaming games take too much time. Anyway, who has the time to replay games? I mean, out of grownups (whom this game seems to be made for)?

But, you see...from the Arab perspective, USA is the thug who came to THEIR land to steal THEIR oil. Arabs didn't come to USA to steal your fresh water and chop your forests.

So, the terrorists are seen as heroes and Americans as the thugs in the rest of the World. It's just that you're brainwashed and your perception is skewed because you're influenced by one-sided media.

Terrorism wouldn't even be there in the first place if USA didn'...

No no no...Sony can never be stronger than hackers. There are many hackers and their motivation is beyond any that Sony could buy from other hackers to protect them. Especially since they'd be fighting against their kind.

So...no full force and such things, no more violence and vengeance. Sony needs to learn that hackers have higher IQ than the tenfold of Sony's managers combined. And that they can be very valuable friends. Just don't mess with them and find a way...

Read the article, please.

PEOPLE, why don't you read the ARTICLE?!?!

It's about that Sony could learn from MS and Nintendo on how to deal with hackers, instead of suing a young kid and bringing a "nuke option" - counter attack onto themselves.

Sony did just what USA does around the World, attacking poor people in order to keep getting richer, look at the mess it brought onto them, 9/11, terrorism, restricting freedoms etc... Sony should have known better.
<...

Did you read the article? It's about how Sony and Microsoft dealt with hackers. Sony sued (attacked) a young hacker, a multibillion dollar corporation against a kid. It's just not ok.

Everyone knows that when you attack someone like that, you will only bring a counterattack on yourself. Just like 9/11 and terrorism in general.

Every console ever was hacked. Xbox is hacked, Wii is hacked, PS1 and PS2 were hacked. So what. Companies still make more than...

I hope it won't be so dark as in that FPS/CallOfDuty like trailer. Bring back colors, bright skies and fun.
