Re: PR own goal
If I was a customer of sony (and I never will be) I would keep them to their word and require that they give me access to their authentication systems. There's no way that I could be FULLY responsible for the security of my account unless I could audit and fix the systems on which it resides.
After all, it's no secret now that sony are totally incompetent when it comes to security, so right now every single customer of sony is knowingly letting their personal information and credit card data reside on a aystem controlled by an organisation that is known to be incapable of and unwilling to protect it.
