THE FUSE

Sacred Symbols podcast host Colin Moriarty recently received a bizarre warning. “Colin, I’m just warning you,” it read. “They have your information and they are going to try to take your account today.” Sure enough, the ex-IGN editor and Kinda Funny Games cofounder’s PlayStation account was hacked shortly after, and he was locked out of a library of hundreds of digital games and an account history built up over decades. While Sony was able to restore access in record time, the high-profile incident has raised fresh concerns about vulnerabilities in PlayStation’s account security.
