Sad but true..... I recently worked with a 'gamer' and I am certain if you cut him down the middle it would have said Sony lol.

I don't play online or use mods in games as I play for fun and fun only, but I do think you are wrong in saying Sony do not care, because if nothing else, their shareholders see Any loss of profit as a bad thing.

Instructions from $ony to P$3 sales persons.

You should ask the following questions to your customers.

1. Do you ever heard of 'GeoHot/Kakaroto/Kmeaw/Wanikoko' etc?
2. Do you ever watch any video in Youtube?
3. Do you ever heard of words like 'hack', 'hax' , 'JB', 'Jailbreak', 'CFW' etc?
4. Do you ever use internet?
and finally
5. Do you have any plan to use this P$3 console?

If your answer is 'Yes' for any of the above questions you are not eligible to buy a P$3 con$ole, rather the sale person should dial '911'.. :aetsch::aetsch::aetsch:

Sony, we ain't Bleem! så you can't take us out as easy by just suing us, if you snap out of your so called "no hacking imagination land" you will see the truth, and that being = the more you fight against this, the more it will **** you up!.

Besides, since the hack you have been selling far more consoles then you ever would have if it wasn't hacked.

(hope sony ppl read this)


WOOOOT! :D

So many replies. I think alot of people are just getting scared that something might happen to them, so they start saying Sony are stupid, out of order and shouldn't be allowed to do this etc.

I respect Sony. They're stopping Piracy on the PS3 (Yes, almost all of you posting here use Homebrew for this purpose) and trying to keep their product hacked free, for the original purpose it was intended for. The ways they're going about it are rough and 'could' be beyond the books but I think I would do the same if it was my product that I designed and/or made.

Rather, perhaps the hacking community (or leechers) are just so laxed until now is because neither Nintendo nor Microsoft took these measures before. Though hey, no point in me as you would say 'preaching' because ignorant people won't see both sides of the point. I do understand that people don't want their privacy being divulged but you should have known what you was getting into when you did what you did.

I'm not going to reply anymore but I'll still read comments. Perhaps someone will give a good opinion about the situation which puts both parties views into account.

I don't hate or love Sony but I respect them.

Someone should start a petition and send it to the case's judge or a protection group like EFF stating how we don't condone Sony's recent actions and that something more than what's happening now needs to be done or something along those lines. If anyone has any legal backround that would be willing to create one, I would sign.

Just because you watch a vid on hacking doesn't mean you hacked. Same with watching movie with violence and so forth. LOL, good luck Sony...





This isnt the way there headed. They want ips for the simple reason to look into those offenders who download copywritten material via your isp's to have those people reported and prosecuted for obtaining said materials. Of course i think this would pertain to people who have grossly abused piracy law. Unfortunate, but i believe to be true. No they wont prosecute thousands but a few in my opinion to set example.

actually only the people who modified their console to play homebrews/pirated games are biitching. you will never find a legitimate user say that sony is stupid stopping piracy on the PS3

I just don't understand all of this stuff. I mean, how can Sony do all that is doing if FailOverFlow told them the Console is hacked and there's nothing they could ever do because they have the MASTER KEYS!!! They also said the only way Sony could fix this is if they changed out hardware. So Sony with all these firmware updates can always stop the hacking if you update to OFW. So how can we stop all this, keep our homebrew, backups, PSN access without ever updating to OFW if we OWN THE CONSOLE AS HACKERS SAID (FOF), If you've hacked something beyond repair by software updates then the system is truly blown wide open for hacking and continuous updates. COME ON DEVS LETS GET THIS PARTY STARTED!!! LET US HAVE OUR CAKE AND EAT IT TO!!!!

Hey why not go the whole hog and get underaged Taiwanese call girls to hand out the documents,that might make Sonys image a little worse,that is what they are determined to do right?!
But i suppose thats a whole different "being served" (sorry!).

[Masterhand243]

Basicly, the Sony apps had another key we didn't know about and none of ore Homebrew apps had. Now the PS3 checks for that newly discovered key too but since our Homebrew apps are missing this other key, it doesn't pass the validity test.
