Lawsuits for Sony over Playstation Network attack

Written by Will Smith - Posted on Thursday, 28 April 2011 11:09

Oh dear ... the tables have turned around. Previously in another court case, it was Sony who wanted to sue hackers ... but now it seems the courts have decided to take legal action over the theft of user data from the PlayStation Network. What's worse is that Sony could also be under government investigation over this recent incident.

"Sony is facing legal action and government investigations over the theft of user data from the PlayStation Network. A lawsuit has been filed in the US against Sony over the hack of its PlayStation Network. The legal action by a PSN user claims Sony did not do enough to protect the private data of its customers.

It also asks for compensation and for Sony to pay for credit card monitoring to spot if stolen details are being used fraudulently. At the same time, the attorney generals for four US states have begun looking into the attack."
