Try to put a lid on some of the fearmongering. Rueby already addressed why that's not helpful. The way you're phrasing things makes it sound like you're more interested in convincing us we're doomed with things like "you're out of luck, nothing can change that" when SE can absolutely do the work to change that. Whether they will do that work is another question entirely. If you want them to, I suggest a more constructive angle than defeatism.

They need to do SOMETHING to stop more account data from getting scraped and compiled in that database. It is a suggestion as a temporary measure while they fix the existing blacklist. They MUST fix the data vulnerability of the current blacklist, you'd agree with that right? If they need time to implement security measures to protect our account data, then they shouldn't just let our data continue to be exposed for that amount of time. It shouldn't take long, as I said it is trivial for a developer of SE's means to do that much. And then the current blacklist can come right back WITHOUT exposing our detailed account information to this sort of abuse. If they don't need much time to do it, then hopefully we'll see a patch roll out as soon as Sony approves it for Playstation.
