A U.S. District judge has stepped in to help Sony in a class-action lawsuit filed against them in regards to the infamous April 2011 security breach that knocked out the PlayStation Network for nearly a month.
The lawsuit was being filed on the behalf of PSN users seeking damages, claiming Sony neglected to adequately maintain data security, leading to the exposure of personal information from over 69 million accounts.
Luckily for Sony, federal Judge Anthony Battaglia has dismissed most of the charges placed against the company. He points out that Sony's privacy policy clearly states that its security is not perfect, thus "no reasonable consumer could have been deceived."
Judge Battaglia also said that, since the users' data exposure was due to a criminal intrusion, and that the complaint did not claim Sony was in any way involved, the company would not be charged with bailment. Additionally, Battaglia stated that Sony was not in violation of any consumer protection law, since "none of the named plaintiffs subscribed to premium PSN services, and thus received the PSN services free of cost."
