PlayStation-poddaren Colin Moriarty rapporterar om hackat PSN-konto

Värden för podcasten Sacred Symbols, Colin Moriarty, förlorade under en kort tid åtkomsten till sitt PlayStation Network-konto trots tvåfaktorsautentisering. Incidenten inträffade efter att han tagit emot ett varningsmeddelande om en förestående attack.

Moriarty, tidigare redaktör på IGN och medgrundare av Kinda Funny Games, skrev på X den 18 maj att hans konto hade blivit hackat som en del av en serie attacker mot både slumpmässiga och framstående användare. Han noterade att kontot användes för att skicka ett hotfullt meddelande till poddarkollegan Dustin Furman där det stod "Du är näst på tur". Sony uppskattade initialt att återställningen skulle ta upp till tre veckor, men återställde åtkomsten snabbare efter att Moriarty kontaktat interna kontakter på företaget.

Following initial reports of a 30-day online validation for PS4 digital games, new tests confirm the requirement applies to PS5 as well.
