This is the same Sony that was famously hacked in 2014:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Pictures_hack

From the Wikipedia page:

“The hackers involved claim to have taken more than 100 terabytes of data from Sony”

“The data included personal information about Sony Pictures employees and their families, e-mails between employees, information about executive salaries at the company, copies of then-unreleased Sony films, and other information.”

The YouTube mistake sounds to me like a publicity stunt, but “hilariously insecure” isn’t necessarily an incorrect assessment of Sony’s infrastructure.
