I know a few people who own PS3s and have been on the PSN for a while now. I don't have one though. It's been down since they were hacked earlier this week.

Some claim that whoever hacked Sony, have millions of customers' credit card numbers.

I wonder how long it will take them to bring it back online and secured.

I have no idea who made this, but it sure could be Anonymous. Especially since it was posted on here not so long ago.

How many of you guys have a PS3?

I don't have any of the gaming systems. Never really been into that sort of thing. To tell you the truth, I am kind of glad I'm not right now!

Recently, I heard somewhere it will be about a month to get it back online and completely working properly. Of course, that may just be a rumor, so please, don't quote me on that.

As far as the hackers having so much of the PSN customer's personal information, it wouldn't surprise me in the least. Cyber attacks are becoming a far more prevalent threat to us now days, with so much dependent on technology. I am all for the advancement of technology, etc, but, sadly, there is always a price. This may just be the tip of the iceberg. :(

Yeah I heard of that though, but I didn't see any articles recently telling us it was back online. I'm not sure I'd go over there immediately when it's back. I wouldn't feel safe instantly.
