Sony sounds a wee bit upset that their dirty laundry is being aired in public. -Sucks that employees personal info is being released, no doubt; but these email exchanges are quite entertaining!

You're all schlomos!

Your B.S. twisted takes on this story and bashing Sony for asking the media to stop releasing and perpetuating the fallout of this hack by disclosing the sensitive info is depressing!

The fact that anyone would defend those attacking Sony and not see the fault here is mindnumbing! People really are dumb in general........evil too!!

There's no righteousness in this what-so-ever and defending this is a sign of sociopathic tendencies from people too stupid to know the difference between right and wrong! GROW UP!!!!!!

Even though it's always fun to watch misfortune befall others, this one is dishonest, without merit and damaging. Any rational red-blooded person with their head OUT OF THEIR ARSE would see this as a reasonable request to prevent the media from disclosing ALREADY SENSITIVE AND PROPRIETARY INFO THAT WAS STOLEN.


With the mentality of those commenting in defense of the hackers on AD, we should all be able to buy stolen goods knowing it's stolen...........or perhaps this mentality states that when at the grocery store, we should be allow to take home food that is misplaced in the aisles w/o paying. "Pickles don't belong in bread aisle so I'm gonna take this and not pay".

IF:
"Pickles don't belong in bread aisle ... ".
I just don't take them. Maybe something wrong with them.

More likely:
I have the chance to sue the store for their mistakes. lol

First, I have direct, excellent reasons for despising Sony; in fact, SEVERAL of them. Nor do I need anyone's permission to do so. I'll take glee in their (or any entity's) downfall at my leisure, thank you.

Second, not even one post (at least so far) on this thread, point of fact, attempts to defend the hackers in any way.

Third, laughing at Sony for this obviously useless attempt at barn-door repair after the horses are long, long gone is not "attacking Sony". Not even close. It's called "observations of reality".

Now, how dumb is it to defend a megacorporation against attacks that aren't occurring, hmm?

You can put that schmeckel back in yer pants, junior. If you want to be insulting and argumentative, could you at least ensure it makes a little bit of sense?

This is what already is happenning:
Sony own employees are in their way to take a class action agains Sony for not care to secure their own employees personal data.
