If you've been anywhere near the internet recently, you may have heard about Sony's little security problems. You may have also heard that the security breach might cost Sony something like $24 billion. It looks like PS3 owners aren't too happy about the whole thing.

A survey commissioned by CouponCodes4U of 2,132 people across the U.S. found that 41 percent of those surveyed own a PS3. Of that 41 percent of PS3 owners, 89 percent were concerned that their personal data had been stolen in the breach, 65 percent said their trust in Sony/PSN had been "greatly affected," and 21 percent - more than one in five people - said they were considering selling their PS3's in favor of an Xbox 360.

CouponCodes4U Chairman Mark Pearson had this to say:

As a video gamer myself, this data theft is especially worrying and I'm not altogether surprised that Sony are likely to see an exodus to console competitors. As hackers get more and more intelligent, companies simply have to keep up. Sony has a responsibility to its millions of customers to protect personal details and this data theft proves that they weren't capable of doing so. It's clear that gamers across the country have decided that this failing is enough to switch their allegiances to the console's closest rival.

While 2,132 people definitely isn't an all-encompassing sample size, there is an undeniable trend of Sony distrust throughout the world right now. This breach of security - this breach of privacy - is enough to make at least some gamers abandon Sony altogether (just like George Hotz did - although admittedly for different reasons). The question now: how many people will give up on trusting Sony altogether, and how many will stay by its side, realizing this kind of thing could happen to any company that has our credit card information?
