PSN may have been hacked...again...

PSN wasn't hacked. Other services were hacked and the hackers were using usernames and passwords to try to access PSN:
Reitinger points out the data appears to have come from another source.

"In this case, given that the data tested against our network consisted of sign-in ID-password pairs, and that the overwhelming majority of the pairs resulted in failed matching attempts, it is likely the data came from another source and not from our Networks. We have taken steps to mitigate the activity," writes Reitinger.
Joystiq also published an article with a similarly misleading headline, so it's understandable if there was some confusion.

But not to worry: PSN is safe. For now. :)
