Why should I bother with Sony again?

And this time around, it sounds like they didn't even bother to try to keep it safe.

And you guys are sure that with this latest hack, that it was your data that was lost again?
I'm trying to get you to think that possibly, just possibly... that perhaps Sony isn't the only one with these problems. The only reason it's being brought to light is the focus of the attacks on them. If you think Sony is the only one not protecting
some data incorrectly then you are naive.
Go ahead and don't bother with Sony again. I don't see your ad on the buy/sell forum yet for the PS3 though. I think it's hilarious to give up on them, go to another company (who's security hasn't been the focus of a large arranged hack yet) and risk it all again. I have the belief that unless you are a bank, your system is most likely not hack proof. Other companies will have the same problems if the focus is directed on them.
And btw... it was never confirmed if your credit card was stolen... only that they put actions in place in case it was.
