PSN Class Action Lawsuit Filed

The Rothken law firm has filed a federal class action lawsuit against Sony on behalf of "approximately 77 million" PlayStation Network users who are unable to access the PSN. According to the suit, Sony failed to maintain a proper firewall and "computer security system," "failure to properly encrypt data," "unauthorized storage and retention of data," and violation of "Payment Card Industry Data Standard(s) and rules and regulations." The suit categorizes the time between Sony learning of the problem and informing the public as an undue delay, saying that it prevented consumers from making informed decision as to "whether to change credit card numbers, close the exposed accounts, check their credit reports, or take other mitigating actions."

Deny and Block!

Let me start off by saying that I am a gamer.  I am a member of psnfriends.com and playfire.com  Both are great sites.  However, I read some important information on another psnfriends.com  If someone of the name daniel-25-2010 adds you on PS3, deny and block them.  He apparently adds you, sends naked photos, and invites you to a chatroom (CONVITE) where he sends photos of children in sexual positions.  This happened to a person on psnfriends.com  I was playing Wii last night and happened to get on my PS3 and had a request from him along with at least 33 chatroom invites.  I didn't know about him at the time.  After I accepted the add, I read the post on the website.  I told him if he messaged me again, I would block him and report him to the FED and SONY.  He kept sending me messages and invites so I blocked him and filed a complaint on SONY.  If he would have sent me those photos, I would have reported him to the FEDs.  He tried to send me a photo attachment, but nothing was there.  I also read he is linked with "michellebrasil" and "samantha_22".  A while back, I received a add request from samantha_22.  She sent a photo of her in a shirt and undies.  However, she has since been deleted and never contacted me again.  I also understand that this is happening to the females mostly.  If any of these try to add you, please deny, block, and report them.  If SONY receives 10 complaints on a person, they will be suspended for 90 days.  People like daniel-25-2010 need to be put away for life, not suspended for 90 days.
