imagine that with 600 million users

seriously i hate lawyers i mean do you realize how class actions work… at least let Sony get on its feet before u start with the lawsuits…

I think the lawsuit is a joke. You always take risks when using a credit card anywhere. Quit being a whiny little bitch because you cant play your video games.

I don't believe for 1 second the law firms are acting on behalf the consumers. They are just a bunch of greedy little b****** that want to buy gold toilets to take a dump in. They are only going to cause more harm to Sony than good. I just want a TIMEFRAME from Sony stating a date they expect the PSN to be back up. Sony needs to be a little more transparent with its customers from here on out, as it should have been from the very beginning. I'm just one of the 70 million pissed off Sony customers.

YOU FUCKING SORRY-ASS FUCKING LAWYERS LEAVE SONY ALONE !!!!!!!!!!

No need for a lawsuit yet. How about the idea that sony hasn't lost any information but has a larger plan to come back with a revamped Sony network. This will be great all u have to do to join is pay just like xbox. Do the math even at 1$ a month thats a huge amount of money.. Now if that is true everyone should sue and stop buying sony products which i have always swore by.

I feel it is too early for any such lawsuit. Only if someone’s information has been used in a manner that is viewed be harmful should there be one. I'm not saying this only because they were hacked, anyone is at risk of being hacked and having their identity stolen, I say this due to the manner in which Sony handled the situation. After knowing there was a breach they waited about four to five days to inform their customers of the potential threat to their personal information.

I'm not paying for no PSN, I didn't buy the system that way, so that's BS.

people are so greedy and so quick to sue over dumb a@# stuff wanting somthing free my family and i struggle at times but i took the risk by by joining playstation network so i feel its partly on me cant wait to get back online im sure they will have it working alot better this time around i just hope that cards havent ben stolen >>>> please hurry my kids are driving me crazy

All the lawsuit are going to do is make “Sony” Make the “user” that being us pay to use there online. I Personal think its bullshit. Fucking retart, you dont have to use your credit card to buy stuff offline you can buy points and use that! Its peoples own faults for giving it to sony! People should of known that this was going to happen sooner or later.

@Miranda -Remember the scope of this – 77 million people's private information, including credit card information – which was assured that it was kept private – was compromised, and for 7-10 days they kept making excuses as to why their servers were down (mostly giving the excuse that they were down for simple maintenance). It's not just because people “can't play their games”, but that consumers were lied to about super-sensitive information being whisked out from under their noses while Sony told them nothing for so long.

Sony is a Multi-Billion dollar company and we are just poor schmucks..they were negligent by not coming clean right away..THEY KNEW what was going on..and kept us in the dark…I dont know about you but i have a family. If these thieves get a hold of my info and try to do something with it..causing me and my family anguish and aggravation, believe im joining this lawsuit cause its BULLSHIT that these SONY people can be so irresponsible with our information..OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!

Who do I contact to get on board with this? I want to sue Sony too because they lied for over a week allowing the hackers plenty of time to do whatever with the info. Does it matter that the credit card I had on file with them was already canceled? I still was put in risk. My trophy collection better still be there too!

and i do agree if someones card or info gets stolen then psn should take care of it,. just dont see the need in jumping the gun >>> i would definatly join in too but i feel no need unless it happens , i cancelled my card i used on psn and changed passwords to everything i could except psn. nothing i can do now but wait and hope . i take this chance every time i buy online so im now hoping for the best its just a shame that we are land of the free and we have people that want to hack and take forr free from hard working people like us > i truly wish you and everyone else involved that no one get thier identity stolen it would be bad and i would hope sony takes care of all or there will be a huge mess because u know they will be lawyered to the gills

and i do wish they would be a little more open

You want to sue sony, go right ahead, but you leaving the fact out that somebody decided to take time out of his unbusy lifestyle to hack the system any way. Ps2 there was alway somebody getting IP address booting this user off line telling ppl where they was from when the person didnt even say i'm from texas or illinois or south carolina etc etc etc espectially if you are a Socom 2 Navy Seal player.

Coders E-Taggers was always telling other gamers what web site this person was on or normally go to. I sit back and witness a hole lot listening to ppl when they are thinking that I dont have a mic and that I cant hear them talkin. I dont know how many couthless of times that a ass with codes disconnected me from the online play but I know I sent countless of emails to sony saying they need to do something with these ppl about the same issuse. What about the hacker? (This was a question for the government) There is countless of stories about hacker in emails, websites, and spam mail that get delivered to the house seeking to get ppl information but the only thing that was done about anything was ppl getting hit for downloading from naspter and kazza. Here a hint from the government, STEP IN AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE HACKERS, PROSECUTE TO THE FULLEST!!!!! Ppl saying he was right to try to jailbreak the system he paid for the system with his hard earn cash he can do what he want it's his, but guess what dipshit, you paid for a flat screen tv are you jailbreaking the cable company? If you are guess what you're stealing cable jackass. If you jailbreak your droid phone on verizon network your insurance is hearby discontinued, meaning if something happens to a phone you paid for and it yours, you gonna pay full price and the price of a new insurance contract. Blame the Sony network and sue them but also do something for those that are, about, or getting ready to hack into someone else network or home computer device. ADDRESS THE WHOLE HACKERS AND HACKING PROGRAMS OUT THERE!!!!

please excused the many posts but this site isnt allowing me to edit my post right now.

Can you hear it? It's the sound of American opportunism at its best. I love tort law.

Let Sony get on it's feet first? Sure thing. You make no sense. Meanwhile salivating thugs are planning what to do with YOUR credit card number and personal info! Who's side are you on? The consumers side or the side of businesses that fail to encrypt data?

Yea that's it Miranda. What are you 12? It has nothing to do with credit card risks. It sounds like you are saying exactly what the companies would say as an excuse for their lack of care. It has everything to do with how good a company's data is protected. Since you don't mind if your credit rating goes down the drain, keep letting yourself get bent over by strangers.

I agree. It is not about the video game, it is about personal info that was stolen after Sony made everybody “think” that THAT information is secure, well, VOILA! it's not! They should be sued! All 77M users should support this lawsuit.

Hey Blake I just want to point out that cable is a service and not a device so your analogy is flawed

You know what else is flawed your mom thinking she birth class A dipshit when she birth a dumbass failure. Dude what are those device you get if you want to watch hbo or starz? the cable box or that box if u want to surf the net… cable modem… so patrick since you failed at life how about failing to produce more dumbass dipshits like you. it will help the world a lot more if dumbasses like you stop producing

I use my PSN/PS3 to access my NETFLIX account and watch movies. For a month now, I haven't been able to do anything with my PS3. I received a message that an email has been sent with instructions for changing my password. I waited over 24 hours for the email and once I tied to log on to change my PSN password the freakin site was under maintenance again. Now I have to wait another month for SONY to get its act together.  SONY should be ashamed; even smaller companies encrypt their data. What is wrong with SONY??? I would settle for  a 19-20 inch LCD or Platinum monitor for my computer. It would cost much less than one of those  class action attorneys.”It appears there is nothing common in commonsense”
