Sony Breach Gets Worse: 24.6 Million Compromised Accounts At SOE 242

Posted by Soulskill on Tuesday May 03, 2011 @08:14AM from the over-100-million-served dept.

An anonymous reader writes with an update to yesterday morning's news that Sony Online Entertainment's game service was taken offline to investigate a potential data breach related to the PSN intrusion. SOE has now said that they too suffered a major theft of user data. "... personal information from approximately 24.6 million SOE accounts may have been stolen, as well as certain information from an outdated database from 2007. The information from the outdated database that may have been stolen includes approximately 12,700 non-US credit or debit card numbers and expiration dates (but not credit card security codes), and about 10,700 direct debit records of certain customers in Austria, Germany, Netherlands and Spain."

Sony really needs to get better at communicating with their users and the press about these issues. Leaving everyone in the dark just fuels speculation and makes for infuriated consumers. Just give us a high-level explanation of what is happening and a reasonable estimate of how long it will take to fix, please, and stop jerking us around.

No communication is allowed in or out at Apple's re-affirmation camp.

Sounds like they need to get AT&T out there to install a cell tower.

Tesla roadsters are built to handle crashes on the same road as your car, and aren't nearly as tissue-like as you seem to imagine.

Tesla was rear-ended by a Prius, and the impact pushed it under the rear of a SUV.

Yeah, that's a VW Touareg ass-end up in the air. Tesla driver walked away, his only complaint was the headrest/roof hurt the top of his head. With a multi-ton SUV on it, I'm not surprised...

Alrighty then, which mainboards have the lowest error rates?

According to the article, all of Google's machines are using boards from Gigabyte, which is definitely insufficient information to draw any sort of conclusion about which boards are the most error-prone.

Mac OS X will let you create a new admin account via the setup wizard via a few short commands entered in single-user mode at startup.
Whatever control you have over these machines would be temporary, at best. For the kids who *don't* set up their own accounts with admin rights, trying to control what they do with these computers remotely while they still have physical access to the machine is an exercise in futility.
