    Don’t forget that when Sony got called on it, they released a “patch” to “fix” people’s PCs. Except the “patch” was an installer for an even worse rootkit.

    This was all before Sony further proved they don’t value they customers by hosting an insecure network that, once hacked, revealed they stored all user information (including payment details and passwords iirc) in plaintext. Yeah, I’ve missed out on some fun games but I don’t give Sony a dime.

      Glad I’m not the only one who remembers and blacklisted the entire company. It was such an egregious violation of privacy, people’s hardware and all the other stuff you’ve mentioned.

      I only brought it up because I’m not a typical person that forgets after a month and goes back to the company. I’m done, done. That triple-down they did was enough for me to call it quits.
