"Sony’s PlayStation Network, its Qriocity music streaming service and
Sony Online Entertainment were among the services targeted by hackers
recently in cyberattacks and data breaches which compromised more than
100 million accounts...."

What about the other 60 or so Sony incidents documented at
http://attrition.org/security/rants/sony_aka_sownage.html? Sony has
demonstrated a chronic, progressive problem with data security and a
consumer's digital well-being. Sony is the poster child for driving
drunk on the information super highway.

The top priorities for Sony should be: (1) present an outward
appearance of concern, and (2) make lots of PAC contributions to
ensure favorable legislation.
