Here's what gives:
1) The only really valuable information [1] you have on PSN is your credit card information.
2) While Sony said that the credit card information might have been stolen too, so far it appears that it hasn't been compromised.
3) The primary use most people have for PSN is playing games online with other people. Security isn't such a big deal there. [2]
4) Those who purchase games and DLC using PlayStation Store can always choose not to use their credit card for that.
Bottom line? As long as the user's credit card info isn't compromised, he or she will probably care about their PSN security as much as, for example, having their Goodreads account hacked: it would be an annoyance, but not the end of the world.
[1] Trophies and stuff like that have their own value, but most people value their money a lot more than their PSN trophies.
[2] Again, it's not a big deal compared to, for example, having your wallet stolen.
