More importantly: You are forbidden from storing security codes, period. The entire point of the security code is that it was meant to be a "signature" when the customer was not present to physically sign -- a "card not present" transaction. "We got it last time" was never meant to take the place of having the cardholder "sign" again.
If it was true that they were storing CVV codes anywhere, they violated PCI standards and I hope they are sued into the dirt for it.
do any of you getting all eager at the thought of sony in financial trouble realize the implications of sony going under are in the console market?

i will never forgive you for this blizzard.
Yea that's it. I'm not buying anything over Sony again. I guess my data has not been stolen, since this is primarily an attack on their internal stuff, but this company sucks at protecting their data.
I'll try to delete my credit card info from my playstation once I can, if that is of any help

Naughty Dog gets purchased by Activision, Sucker Punch Productions get purchased by EA. The rest of Sony's first party development teams disband and their first party IP's get auctioned off. XBONE becomes the default gaming console. Nintendo remains irrelevant in non-handhold market share. PC remains the top gaming platform for those who can afford it.
So they learned nothing from the whole PSN debacle a couple years ago. How many times do they have to get hit before they start taking their security seriously?
When you see someone in a thread making the same canned responses over and over, click their name, click view forum posts, and see if they are a troll. Then don't feed them."Gamer" is not a bad word. I identify as a gamer. When calling out those who persecute and harass, the word you're looking for is "asshole." @_DonAdams

Not true. Thats like saying all games made with Activison's name on it is made by the same people when it isn't. Sony Pictures is a different division under the Sony name just like the side of Microsoft who makes the OS is a different division then the Xbox Division.
Also what company hasn't been hacked??? I can see getting annoyed and you got the right to but this hack dosen't effect u unless u use Sony Pictures.

Are you seriously telling me that SoE learned how to protect itself against hacks on that scale and they didn't tell Sony Pictures about it? It all falls under Sony Corporation after all. Those are different branches of it, not totally independent companies sharing a similar name.
