Post: Ignorant People. Why PSN is Not Up

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok, there are so many people hating on sony, because of PSN being down. Everyone thinks they are doing this on purpose, or something along those lines. Let me tell you, that is not true. They could turn PSN back on, but there would be consequences. Here is a statement made by them:

Quote: An external intrusion on our system has affected our PlayStation Network and Qriocity services. In order to conduct a thorough investigation and to verify the smooth and secure operation of our network services going forward, we turned off PlayStation Network & Qriocity services on the evening of Wednesday, April 20th. Providing quality entertainment services to our customers and partners is our utmost priority. We are doing all we can to resolve this situation quickly, and we once again thank you for your patience. We will continue to update you promptly as we have additional information to share.

The reason PSN is not up, is because the servers were breached. Whoever breached it, would have access to accounts and CC info. They had to shut down the servers, to prevent it being leaked. Right now, they are working on finding the breach, and fixing it so people don't lose info.

That is all, stop hating, it will be on when they re secure the servers from hackers.

How do you know WHO they care about? I personally only need their games to work not a therapy session.

Most people probably know Sony didn't purposely do this but people get irrational when angry.

I don't. I just have reason to believe that they don't care about any users like xbl does.

all of you sony haters are idiots. Get off PSN and go buy a xbox since you like sucking its cock so much, you paid for the ps3 and PSN is a privilege which is free. They have said repeatedly that they were attacked by an external party yet you think its because of some conspiracy or some bs reason, no its not.

Whose word do I trust, some random stranger online who's like "omg, i hate sony so i'm gonna go do something ILLEGAL to prove a point" or a high member of a reputable and respected company. Yes, Sony is a reputable and respected company, they have not done anything out of sheer selfishness. Some of their acts had parts of selfishness but altogether it was something they needed to do in order to provide the BEST SERVICE FOR ALL OF THEIR CUSTOMERS, NOT JUST A FEW HUNDRED.

I trust Sony to fix this to their best ability and hope that these hackers get caught and then get anal F**** in jail.

Microsoft has better online service but they are probably 1 of the top 5 greediest companies alive so I doubt they "care" anymore than Sony does. Them caring or not wouldn't have prevented this terrible down time.
