Yeah, the dongle will be reversed eventually, but the one piece needed (the decryption of 3.60+ eboots) will never happen, because private keys are impossible to calculate now." *scratches chin*

ther not sony if i do your mad eg , if tb was not about then ppl would ive upgrade to 4.0 etc and buy the games = more money than 1 tb dongle to sony or buy a 2nd ps3, if brought new more money to them again than a tb dongle . sony would be losing money if they made tb , come on its common sence tb is not sony

Part 2:

This all coincided with SOPA and PIPA, so the plan was air-tight; pay a few 'scene site' admins/owners to promote the f*ck out the TB, make a bunch of games available (but with their own bullet-proof DRM for damage control) then use the sales figures of the dongle (multiplied by the retail box price of every released title) to arrive at a figure to lobby even harder for these horrible, inexcusable laws to be enacted. Don't buy this sh*t.

Snoop Dogg had nothing to do with this conspiracy. HE WAS FRAMED!

Part 3:
Okay, lets say 3000 of these TBs have been sold. And there's what, 30 newer games that can be played with it? More? I honestly don't know. Let's say 30. So 30 games times retail US $60 is $1800. Times 3000 dongles is $5,400,000. This is how they distort numbers to pass terrible laws; would they have actually lost over 5 million in sales? Hell no, their security is secure now, those 3000 dongle buyers got thrown a fricken bone (don't get used to it. it's ending soon) and the whole project is collected data now.
