To use this online service users have to register first, this requires  personal information include names, birthdays and family addresses, if users want to buy things in its online store, they also have to provide their credit card numbers. All these information are stored in Sony’s server. On April 2011, the PSN server was attacked by some hackers and millions of users’ personal data got stolen including their credit card information. Unfortunately I was one of the victims. In order to prevent further losses I had to cancel my credit card and apply a new one. Here is a link to the details of this attack: http://venturebeat.com/2011/05/04/chronology-of-the-attack-on-sonys-playstation-network/ [...]
