Yes, because games without PSN accounts are so unsafe and Sony definitely isn't susceptible to having their servers hacked.

Sony has a history of being terrible with security.

They literally built malware two decades ago.

I still have an audio CD with their malware embedded. Ripped it under Linux, no problem.
