There was no statement to confirm or deny that Sony's passwords were salted. You can say that Sony's PR handled it a lot worse than Valve and provided incomplete information, but you can't make the claim that Sony didn't salt their passwords. | ||

Open Steam Click on the Steam item in nav bar at the top Go to your Settings Under the Account tab, click on "Manage Steam Guard Account Security" Make sure Steam Guard is on, then check the box for "Deauthorize all other computers now" This should prevent any machine except the one you just used to do this from autologging into your steam account. Accessing from another computer will require a token emailed to your registered email account. | ||

Even supposedly reputable websites can have bad security. security over convenience, how dare you! you're suppose to demand for that convenience then complain about how there was security flaw. | ||

I do this too but does that even make a difference? Doesn't Valve have the information anyway (to be hacked in this case) and checking that option only has the advantage of convenience, i.e. not putting the details every time for the customer. | ||
