egy kis összeesküvés elmélet:
I'm seeing people claim that Blizzard was hacked on August 4th. There's a reason people are throwing around that date... it's because Blizzard is intentionally trying to deceive the public. From their FAQ regarding the incident:

When did Blizzard learn of the unauthorized access?
The trespass into our internal network was detected by us on August 4, 2012.
Most people interpret this to mean that Blizzard was hacked on August 4th, and that's exactly what Blizzard wants people to think. What it's really saying is that they did not notice that an attack previously occurred until August 4th. They haven't actually said when the breach occurred. So, why are they misleading people about the date of the breach? The answer is fairy obvious.
Remember the large amount of theft that was happening around the launch of the game? Most people at least know a friend that had their account stolen, and many of the victims were competent people. It was clear that there was a problem on Blizzard's end (multiple problems, in fact). Blizzard's reaction was to blame their customers. Take a look at this brief exchange. Blizzard practically threatens a guy for explaining what was actually happening.

No. Not that. It flies in the face of all logic and evidence to the contrary. This is a very serious matter. A company doesn't just get away with covering up something like that.
It's an incredibly serious allegation and the ramifications would be so much more far-reaching than what you've witnessed. Again, I understand you're upset, but I caution you not to perpetuate this nonsense any further.
A company doesn't get away with covering up something like that? Funny... because that's what they're trying to do as we speak.
I encourage people to pressure Blizzard into revealing when the breach took place. I'd like to finally see them accept responsibility for the thousands of accounts that were stolen when the game launched.
Don't let them get away with this.
