Sony's manner has been severly tarnished in this incident they will never regain a good reputation again. As I work in the IT trade I can say Sony pc's and laptops are full of crap that logs and sends stuff off, if I was you and you own a Sony kit wipe it and start again just make sure you can get the drivers as they are so fussy now.
