Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.
pretty bad how anyone who lives in Alabama is naturally assumed by the rest of the planet to be a low-life incestuous redneck with a baseball cap, a thick accent & a drinking problem

Actually I just assumed he was a regular sue-happy asshole.
So they admitted to not encrypting it. That'll go down well when people try and sue them. And it can't have been that sophisticated if people got in and out before you even saw that data compromised.
Just two things:
Encryption is not like a smart bomb that easily blows away all privacy issues on the screen.
Knowing what really happens on your system is for all practical purposes probably impossible.
Great, now I feel dirty because I just bordered on defending Sony. Gah.

Actually it's true. I live in Birmingham and I talk like that IRL. I also like to hang black people for fun on the weekend with my friends. That is after we go fishing with shotguns.
That is the personal data table though, which most people could give two ****s about. A hacker wants to know where you live, meet them at the door with a shotgun, it's that simple.
The main thing here is that the credit table IS encrypted. Now the possibility of it being decrypted is still very much alive, but this little bit of info should be enough to let people know Sony wasn't as ignorant as we once thought.

2.2 million SUPPOSEDLY up for sale, 150k of those are from Germany.
I wonder if there will be a huge class action lawsuit against Sony for being stupid assholes.
