According to the latest from Joystiq: "Here's what's in the definitely jacked column: "name, address (city, state, zip), country, email address, birthdate, PlayStation Network/Qriocity password and login, and handle/PSN online ID." Our takeaway: you'd better start changing passwords if you use the same one frequently. We'll leave the decision on whether or not to pack your bags and move away up to you.
In the possibly jacked column: "profile data, including purchase history and billing address (city, state, zip), and your PlayStation Network/Qriocity password security answers." That leaves your credit card information, which ... well, we'll let Sony tell you itself: "If you have provided your credit card data through PlayStation Network or Qriocity, out of an abundance of caution we are advising you that your credit card number (excluding security code) and expiration date may have been obtained." Yikes."
Good grief, man.

Discussion about
The Sony / PSN 'external intrusion' news keeps getting worse.
Sony was finally starting to make the PS3 look good with all the price drops, media enhancements, PSOne library, etc and then BAM no more.
I think the worst part about this whole thing is that you can't even log into the web portal! I know I have purchased stuff on PSN but I am not sure as to which card and now I can't even find out.

And the story continues!
