Sony Parent Company may or may not be the one who ordered it, but it is SCEA who are doing it as they have the best chance of making it work.

Sony is sooo silly, a company that just repeats history...
I mean really how stupids they must be, their IQ must be a singe digit one.
With this scandal I remembered about the rootkit in 3.56, which made me laugh for doing such a move after that HUUUUGE SCANDAL that I still remember:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_BM...ootkit_scandal

Sony doesn't want to get on court losing again a case about rootkeys, they should better get rid of it sillently ASAP...

Also, don't forget...

BOYCOOT SONY, I happy that some of you get my point!

LOL Sony you can have the IP addresses of millions of viewers? Even with them, what the hell are you gonna do? Sue those millions of viewers? Good luck with that.

I know Sony have got rights as at the end of the day they are the company that made the PS3!!! So they have got the rights to keep there system keys or anything what as got to do in programming the PS3.

I do feel sorry for Sony as they are losing money fast all by hackers messing about with there programming. Making everybody to hack there PS3's so they can play backup games and do things what it was never made to do.


If it was not for Sony at the start we will never have had the PS3 to play on. So look at it this way. Sony has done a good thing.


If this war keep going on any more. I say Sony will give up on the console making business as.

1) They are loseing money by everyone who like hacking. Downloading games.
2) PS3 breaks by hacking. I bet it cost Sony money to make the parts for every fix they do.
3) People be moving off the PS3 and Sony for GOOD.
4) People be only using PS3 to play backups and not go online to buy stuff.


I do feel sorry for Sony and all there hard work in making the PS3. Like what i put it was Sony that made it and Sony for the top game playing.


--------------------------------------------------------------

But at the same time why not hack your PS3?
Deep down if you own a PS3 it's yours and you can do what ever you want to do with it.

Not saying play backup games like what people do anyway.
But make it more powerful then what it is!!!
Play homebrew games and emulators. All the old school games that use to be on the old Nes and sNes.

Why not?

At the end of the day you can not win on both sides as Sony as got rights and hackers as got rights not to make Sony go out of business but to make the freedom of playing with something as good by Sony.

[j2yo]

bottom line is everythink these days can be hacked, bank accounts, mobiles, networks
the list goes on
if a person can make the code, sure a person can crack it.
sony will do everything they can to prevent this hacking but by no means will hey ban ur console as it will breach a lot of sh*t
nways good nyt SONY

Don't know if they are acting on their own, but i would assume so SCEJ and SCEE aren't doing anything... i guess they don't even care, lol.

If we really want this to stop, BECAUSE WE CAN, we should show them that we could cut their legs if we want, if we boycoot the NGP Sony will fail to make in the planned future NGP profittable and this will cause a huge problem in Sony that invested millions on it's project and maybe then they will know who are they messing with... Come on, everyone of you knows that if we don't give them our money they don't have power, because our money is what gives them power that they use it in the end against us. I repeat what I said above. Make a frontpage post advising people to Boycoot Sony's NGP launchdate and any other SCE thing.

i think u need to go back and see what name i was quoting in that post cos it wasnt your name it was RoboGamer1

Although, if Sony gets the IP addresses, they could follow with a civil suit against those IPs. If they go the way of MPAA/RIAA, they'll basically force a settlement.

With Google being involved, I highly doubt they won't fight back at this. Google won the Viacom case against them, and bigger/more powerful companies such as Disney, NBC Universal and Time Warner were in that. Sony can buy out the judges, but Google, as an equally powerful company, can call them out on such.

Laws aren't as crazy in Europe and Japan. A case like this would instantly be dismissed in those areas.

and so you know the ps3 should be treated like a computer,cause that is what it is... how would you feel if microsoft only allowed windows in your machine and microsoft products, really great huh -.-'
