PSN security

[psxpetey]

how secure is PSN? i was thinking about putting my facebook on my account in the ps3 menu on psn but if PSN is low security still and in danger of being hacked i don't want to bother. Plus I really hate the idea of any other information of mine being leaked from psn as a result of there low security

lol u think about psn istead thinking about credit card etc etc.. LOL
in anycase i doubt that "hacker" wants ur FB account LOL

[psxpetey]

very true but i have no credit card duh or i would have asked about that instead

[psxpetey]

plus since when do hackers make sense they steal email accounts so they can get a bot uploaded which has no other function then to send itself to all ure contacts it doesnt get more useless then that

You shouldn't be using the same password for your e-mail account as you do for Facebook. If you do, change one of them. As long as they're different, even if your Facebook account is compromised, you'll be fine. Not to mention if you're that concerned about security, you shouldn't be using Facebook for anything important, anyway.

Your idea of how a hacker uses e-mails is hilariously incorrect. You're thinking of a virus that would spread itself via your e-mail contacts.

A hacker would be more concerned about getting your credit card info, your e-mail address, and your passwords. As long as you use a different password for every account, and as long as the hacker shouldn't be able to guess your e-mail password based on your PSN or (if, for whatever reason, he were to decide to get your Facebook info) Facebook password, you'll be fine.

Facebook and PSN are completly different things. It's just ordinary external app, not itegrated with PSN.
