I haven't read the method yet, or seen if it works or not. But I have to say, I told everyone this will happen. You fuck with the masses, and they will fuck you right back twice as hard if need be. Look at the DDoS attack on Ubisoft's DRM servers as an example.


I also find it extremely pathetic, and I really can't stress the word pathetic hard enough, that people with PS3's actually WANT to have features removed. I mean, this is as pathetic as you can get without actually being controlled by SONY, through money or mind control you choose.

geohot's hack was a mod chip pure and simple would yopu want people with mod chipped on PSN?

The fact that Geohot knew this speak's about his character:

he hacked the Iphone because his mom's phone plan was on another carrier and the Iphone was only AT&T so instead of just letting it go

Geohot which i think has quite the little "God complex"  decided that the rules do not apply to him.

the very fact that he goes to great length's to do thing's like this mean's he care's little about who he hurts or what trouble he causes.

He is the shining example of why Hacker's like Him cause more Harm than Good.

 

He just opened up the platform. That's what he did. He could have let SONY know a bit ahead of time so they could patch it, if it was software, but you can't really patch up hardware. Back in the day a white had discovered a problem with TCP/IP which would have let anyone who did it literally able to take over the entire internet and anything going across it. However no one removed any features to fix it.

Hackers just prod and open closed doors. Now with hardware, that's even more true. I hate closed hardware and I think any company that does should just go burn. So I really see absolutely no problem with unlocking the PS3 fully. As I have said multiple times before, always plan on having yoru device opened no matter what. Now if someone opens up a platform, find ways to protect your hardware other than removing features because that is the lowest and most dispicable action a company can resrot to. It also angers hackers who just open things for fun, motivates them if you will, and things jsut get worse. As you can see, SONY's patch is already absolutely useless and the day isn't even through yet.

As long as there is closed systems there will be peopole who want to open them. Whether it causes harm or good it doesn't matter since it will happen.

it was already Open..that's why Linux was there in the first place!

"I hate closed hardware and I think any company that does should just go burn. So I really see absolutely no problem with unlocking the PS3 fully."

an see exactly that is the problem:

opening up a system to allow piracy of their property is going to happen, but when your software sales are not large on a game by game basis, than that become's a problem.

you say open up thing's for fun?

that's like saying stealing is just for fun?

it does matter to the people that invest more money to make those game's how would you feel if you seen 4+ million copy's of your game stolen?
