PSN Outage - Sony Responds to the US House of Reps

Over at the official PlayStation Blog they've just posted an update regarding the written answers Sony provided to the Subcommittee on Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade of the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Energy and Commerce (try to say THAT 5 times fast...):

In summary, we told the subcommittee that in dealing with this cyber attack we followed four key principles:

1. Act with care and caution.
2. Provide relevant information to the public when it has been verified.
3. Take responsibility for our obligations to our customers.
4. Work with law enforcement authorities.

Sony goes on to say:

We are working around the clock to have some PlayStation Network services restored and we’ll be providing specific details shortly. We hope this update is helpful to you, and we will continue to keep you posted as we work to restore our network and provide you with both the entertainment and the security you deserve.

So I guess we need to continue to sit tight and wait longer for PSN to come back...
