Sony's great big data leak could go down in history as the company's messiest mess of all time -- even worse than the CD rootkit disaster. Last week, we learned that hackers had broken into Sony's PlayStation Network and made off with a bunch of user data. Names, passwords and birth dates were definitely leaked, and Sony wasn't able to guarantee people's credit card numbers were safe either. That's what we were told a week after the break-in, and in the meantime, lots of customers' credit card numbers may have been in the hands of crooks. Since then, the plot has thickened further.
