You claim they are apologizing when (according to you of course, since you know more about the situation than they do) they don't have a reason to.
"regardless of the particulars of the scenario".
Fine. Great. You're not calling them liars. Maybe you're implying they don't see the truth here, and only you do, since you never offer up lame excuses for your pet "causes" (the Roman Catholic Church, for example)
Whatever.
This really isn't that difficult to understand.
If I have a museum and host borrowed pieces to show to the masses, I'm going to put in an as much security as I find is needed. If some professional thieves break in, bypass my security, and steal my shit, I will apologize because it happened under my watch. But that doesn't mean I was negligent or didn't take precautions. It could just as well mean the thieves were really good at their job.
Who gives a rat's ass when they figured it out?
The reason you posted the article in the first place was to say that Sony was admitting they're the ones entirely responsible. If they really bare that much responsibility here, that means they would have known from the get-go that their security wasn't gonna work. But I'm not seeing where they say that here.
If they didn't know their service had piss-poor security from the beginning, they certainly know now...and whenever they had this revelation, they didn't do enough to prevent the attack, according to them.
Where did they say they had piss-poor security?
Make sure you pass that along to them. You know their product better than they do, and when they apologized, that's because "Humility is their cultural staple regardless of the particulars of the scenario".
I don't know shit about their security, which is exactly the reason why I'm not the one claiming that they cur corners or didn't use measures that they thought would truly be adequate.
That's where you come in, because apparently you know their servers inside and out.
Sony shares the blame for its shitty security measures. They didn't want this to happen.
If you admit they didn't want this to happen then you can't say they blatantly allowed it to with sub-par security.
And completely irrelevant. Let me know when it happens, if it ever does happen. Until then, let's discuss Sony's colossal failure, which did happen.
And why did it happen? Apparently you know exactly what they did or did not do.
You're trying too hard. Seriously.
Way to avoid the point. Listen to what you're trying to say for a moment: you're trying to tell me that they fucked up because they didn't use enough security. But that does not in any way mean that they didn't use security that they thought, for all intents and purposes, would be adequate. For all you know, their security was more beefed up then Microsofts, and so by default, Microsoft is fucking up as we speak.
Moreover, by your logic, every fucking company out there with network security inferior to Apple's fucking up. Considering their security is more layered than even the CIA's, that leaves a great deal of companies wanting for what you would consider decent security.
Really, what would you say if Apple got hacked? That every single company out there was fucking up? BY that logic, no one should host a network.
M$ is doing enough as of the moment, considering their network didn't get the pissfuck hacked out of it, unlike Sony's.
Wow! That's some brilliant deduction there. Using your reasoning, I could just as easily have said, "Sony is doing enough as of the moment, considering their network didn't get the pissfuck hacked out of it," before PSN/SOE was compromised and I would've been right according to you.
Jebus, you're fucking cracked at this point. You've gone so off kilter trying to defend yourself for handing your info over to a huge corporation you can't account for that you'll resort to any logic no matter how retarded it my be. Fucking incredible.
So now it's "wild speculation" that a multi-billion dollar company's hardware can get hacked?
You asked me to speculate how M$ would react, dumbfuck.
Actually it was a rhetorical question that implied you wouldn't bother criticizing MS for apologizing like Sony has done.
But more importantly, you apparently missed the irony of saying it's wild speculation that a multi-billion dollar company would have to deal with the PR after getting hacked.
That's okay. I know no one else missed it.
There is no speculation...Sony fucked up big time.
Oh right, I forgot that you're an expert on MS and Sony's hardware, so whatever you say about whatever happened to their shit wouldn't be speculation. Sorry.
Looking at your responses, I understand why you're such a big fan.
Because I prefer not to have the full experience of a game sold seperately?
