If your expectations for compensation are that Nexon can (has the ability to), should, and is willing to completely restore every single item that was lost via hackings, then no, the compensation is not fair. It's too much for some people (net worth much less than compensation packages) and too little for others.
However, Nexon's infrastructure and capabilities as they are now, based on Nexon's track record, is not nearly enough to realistically expect such an approach from Nexon, even if they should restore all lost items.
So if you consider the compensation relief package (emphasis on wording) as merely a package to help players "get back on their feet," then I suppose it's as fair as could be for a blanket decision.
That doesn't mean that I don't think Nexon should really beef up their security and start implementing a better support system for hackings (not that it should happen on Nexon's side in the first place) for the future.
