Hackers planning to strike Sony again

Since suffering an attack on the PlayStation Network and Qriocity services -- leading to users' data being leaked and PSN being taken down for several weeks -- Sony has been targeted by hackers several more times. Just recently, more than $1,000 in virtual points were stolen when Sony's ISP was broken into and a phishing site was discovered on Sony's servers. The attacks on Sony don't appear to be done, either.

 

Over the weekend, PBS' website was hacked and a story was posted claiming rapper Tupac is still alive. It was apparently perpetrated by LulzSec, the same group that took responsibility for an attack on Sony BMG's Japanese website a little more than a week ago. It hasn't said it was responsible for the attack on PSN.

 

That same group said on Twitter this past Friday, "We're working on another Sony operation. We've condensed all our excited tweets into this one: this is the beginning of the end for Sony." A follow-up tweet yesterday said, "#Sownage (Sony + Ownage) Phase 1 will begin within the next day. We may have a pre-game show for you folks though. Stay tuned." As of this writing, no further updates related to Sony have been posted.

why not? I love video games

They bore me. Outside of Madden against a friend, video games no longer hold my attention. It's so weird. I used to love video games growing up - but I've truly outgrown them.

 

About 3 or 4 weeks ago, I attempted to play a game of NBA 2K11 online. I played for the first quarter and a half, and then realized I couldn't finished the game. I promptly quit and turned off my PS3. I absolutely had no interest in continuing the game. Lol.
