Sony says PSN hack was "great experience"...

Sony exec Tim Schaaff proves once again that big corporations live in some bizarre otherworld where reality intrudes but rarely. GamesBeat reports that he said it was a "Great experience, really good time. Though I wouldn't like to do it again."

Was he joking? Or could he actually be serious? The hacking of PSN was probably the worst and most public intrusion of a major developer or publisher in recent history, although it was quickly followed by the hacking of Codemasters, Sega, Nintendo and SquareEnix, among others.

Now, I would argue that it was a requirement of Sony waking up to how poor their security obviously was, it is just a shame that their users were the ones that had to suffer the loss of their personal information. He continued to say that; “A determined hacker will get you, the question is how you build your life so you’re able to cope with those things.”

Ne'er a truer word spoken.

Pity Sony and their customers had to take the kicking before the corporation realised that.
