Edit - Sony changed their decision, but has restricted purchase in the countries that don't have access to PSN.

Sony.

In early October 2023, Sony notified 6,791 current and former employees that their data had been compromised by a data breach earlier in the year.

On September 25 2023, the hacker group RansomedVC claimed to have stolen 260 GB of proprietary data from Sony — by the hackers’ description, “all of Sony systems.” They posted 6,000 files as a sample of the stolen data, including a PowerPoint presentation and source code files.

In August 2017, a group named “OurMine” gained access to Sony PlayStation social media accounts and began posting claims that it accessed the PlayStation Network database and collected registration information, including usernames, names, and emails.

In late November 2014, a hacker group with ties to North Korea calling themselves the “Guardians of Peace” stole mountains of data from the Sony Pictures network. Within the treasure trove of information were plans and scripts for unreleased films, personal data on employees and families, internal emails, salary information, and a ton of other information relating to Sony properties and personnel.

Hackers attacked several Sony Pictures-associated websites in June 2011, compromising over one million user accounts by capturing usernames and passwords.

In May 2011, Sony announced that personal details from 25 million Sony Online Entertainment customer accounts were stolen. Along with names, addresses, birth dates, and phone numbers, hackers also gathered information about PC games customers purchased through the system.

In mid-April 2011, Sony’s PlayStation Network was hacked, and personal information on 77 million account holders – essentially every user – was stolen. The incident also led to a several-week service outage, preventing users from being able to access the PlayStation network.
