FTC Fines RockYou $250,000 For Storing User Data In Plain Text
You probably don't remember the RockYou fiasco as it happened in late 2009. In case you don't, social game developer RockYou suffered a serious SQL injection flaw on its flagship website. Worse, the company was storing user details in plain text. As a result, tens of millions of login details, including those belonging to minors, were stolen and published online. Now, RockYou has finally settled with the Federal Trade Commission.

Why hasn't the same thing happened with Sony then when they were hacked? All the logins were again stored in a non-encrypted fashion?
