If he has really done a runner....What a pussy he is, And what a waste of peoples money that funded him...

The facts are Geo Is just stupid and immature and attention grabbing skinning liittle ******

[pimpspter]

He must have known that by telling them he bought that console new given that someone had used PSN on it was insane.....

He could still claim that someone else at his home address must have done it....solongas he personally didn't agree to the psn terms Sony don't have anything on him, right?

Also lying to the court is legal suicide given my understanding.......

his lawyers did confirm geohot was out of the country sometime in early march. But claiming he ran away to south america is retarded and utter nonsense.

The PSN account has NOT been proven yet.
the name/address/ip/consoleid were not supplied in the court documents (they may be sealed from public but meh)
If he bought a used/refurbed/used sold as new console then there would be a PSN account on the PS3
the account name "rumored" is not one of geohot's known aliases.
Additionally in the court documents filed by SCEA the account name changes from blikmanic to blikmaniac
A google search yields a phone hacking forum post (a picture was posted and the geolocation yields Boston not NJ)

There are ALOT of holes in what SCEA is saying and it is very sad that this is all they got from supeona-ing everyone and everything

Omg there s a hacker on the loose.Hide your women and children.He is armed with c++ and he s dangerous to any ps3 consoles.Sony better catch this mad hacker and put a stop to the insanity.

Well the runner part is 99% fake, people are over reacting on this running part!
Other than that it doesn't sound good for geohot, hope the guy stays true, i mean a lot of people has helped him out on this by donating, i sure hope he doesn't **** up!

Have you noticed that Sony has not said in any statement that they OWN the PS3 after we, the consumer, have purchased it but yet their actions have shows different? you might as well say that you paid a one time Lease agreement on your PS3 to sony. So should sony be sued along with gamestop, walmart, kmart, target, bestbuy and countless other retailers that has sold Ps3's and withheld information about a lease agreement with the ps3 and sony?

according to www.Dictionary.com, purchase means "to acquire by the payment of money or its equivalent; buy." if this definition holds true, then Geohot has done no wrong because all he did was allow others the right to customize what they own. geohot did not tell anyone else to develop any software that would allow piracy. on top of that, he didn't force anyone to d/l his work. Let's be real here, Sony is putting up a good fight to protect the PSN and to protect the intellectual properties of game developers. Nobel cause in itself and i, for one, applaud Sony for it however, Sony cannot assume that every one that calls themselves "hackers", "developer" or has been categorized as a hacker is going to pirate.

Personally, i think that sony's mad that they didn't think about making a backup manager and thinking about all the money they could have made on the ideal.

actually Sony never claimed to own the console after you purchased it for a good reason. they don't.

the software contained in the ps3 is theirs and we as users accept a license agreement to use it.

hardware mods and homebrew are beyond their control but it's having their software modified to remove security that's the issue. if we had a pure CFW using no Sony code then there would never be an issue but unfortunately that's way beyond us yet.
that's why they are going after these devs HARD.
their motivation for doing this is understandable but their methods are wrong.
