Sony thinking

I was reading, with passing interest, the developing news that Sony managed to have their systems infiltrated and the files they keep on their online gamers pilfered. 77 million - at least - online gamers have had personal credit details and more revealed to all sorts of "underground" criminal organisations.

I have never been an online gamer. If you want to play against humans at computer games that is what, Tuesday nights, friends and SuperMario Kart is for.

Many people have been surprised that Sony apparently did not think too much about double secure means of keeping their customer information safe.

However, in their defence - some signs of this type of thing almost being inevitable was in evidence. They did, after all, include the Cranberries' song Zombie in SingStar 90's.



Not exactly a video for a lambrini-fuelled house party. Although to achieve "SINGSTAR!" on it, is pretty tough to do.
