It’s 2016 and Playstation finally decided to add two-step verification to the Playstation Network, giving users an extra line of defense to their PS3, PS4, and Vita accounts. We can’t stress how important it is to enable this feature, so go do it now!

It’s no secret, Sony’s Playstation Network is always prone to security breaches. There’s always something going on. Reports of hackers infiltrating PSN accounts and making changes to an account. If you’re cool with that sort of thing, then by all means, keep it off. But if you’re someone who values their privacy, enable that shit right now.
