(3) Give us regular PSN members a free one month trial of PS+.Quote:

What I am asking for sure isn't cheap but it would restore some "Good Will" that was lost b/c of this.
Yeah that's right....I have Netflix too, but can go to my 360 so that is why I didn't think of putting it in my e-mail.
I was nice in the e-mail so I am sure I will get some generic response.
Give me cross game party chat and auto-synchronizing trophies and I'll forget this ever happened.

This hacking can fall under cyberterrorism for a number of reasons, and also if these rumors are true of hackers attempting to sell back the credit card information to Sony, cyberextortion, which falls under cyberterrorism. There's federal sentencing guidelines, ~10 years. The biggest issue becomes how much monetary damage are they causing Sony (there's no doubt it breaks the threshold) to fall under the USA PATRIOT Act.
Will it ever be pursued that far, who knows, but there's no doubt Sony will go do their best to trace it down and use the FBI or equivalent law enforcement in that nation to go after the persons to the fullest extent of the law (which in the case of Pakistan is the death penalty).
I also find it hard to believe we've not seen or heard of any reports of anyone's CC information being used, other than a forum. They stole data to 70 million accounts... what are the odds yours is the one they use, and it just so happens to come out on a forum first? If these are supposedly encrypted the way Sony says they are, I'm not at all sure they would already be able to decrypt them. I've yet to cancel my debit card and I'd rather not have to do it, I will be moving a large sum of my money to my credit union, however.
send all of us headsets or blue-tooths
If the hackers aren't based in America, do our laws have an effect on them? I ask because this was a global hacking not just only in America. Who would be the country to prosecute them if they catch them?Quote:

I hope Sony has hired some mercenaries to take these fuckers out and gut them in front of their wives/husbands/boyfriends/girlfriends/parents.
for US Laws to be applied the country would have to agree to extradite them.
Also, in regards to the extortion, which can cause this to be classified as cyberterrorism, what I heard was 2 million European credit cards.. but this was all denied by Sony and outside of musings on forums really hasn't gained any real proof or traction.
Ummmm .... All they want is 100k? Who is the hacker Dr. Evil?
:D I was wondering the same thing. Did they get their zeros mixed up? Leave a couple of them off the paper?Quote:
