Well it is accurate, all right, that most people don't know what a rootkit is. But what about the "why should they care about it" part? This implies, at least to me, that we are all just a bunch of idiots, mindless drones that don't (or shouldn't) care whether our privacy is invaded and our property damaged by Sony.

He's got obviously no shame if he's capable of saying something as offensive as that.
