RockYou Sued Over Data Breach

A lawsuit has been filed in U.S. District Court against social-networking app maker RockYou for failing to keep customer data safe.

The suit seeking class action status was filed Monday in U.S. District Court in San Francisco by lawyers for Alan Claridge, of Evansville, Ind., who registered with RockYou in August 2008 to use a photo-sharing application. RockYou is a publisher and developer of online apps and services like "SuperWall" on Facebook and "Slideshow" on MySpace.
