Security Loophole Puts PlayStation Network Offline

Nothing seems to be going right for the online gaming network after being down for nearly a month.

The beleaguered Sony PlayStation Network has been compromised again, just two days after relaunching following two of the largest data breaches in history. The online gaming network has been taken offline as of Wednesday because hackers can change users' passwords by inputting their birthdates and email addresses, data which were made available after last month's breach. In a gesture of goodwill, Sony promised two free downloadable games to its customers when the network came back online on Monday after more than 100 million accounts on both the console and PC gaming networks were exposed.
