PS3 security completely cracked

Crap, I just watched that video and that was pretty much an epic fail.  Two things I have to say to some people in this thread:

• The video goes into why they hack consoles-- because they want low level access and run Linux.  Since Sony originally allowed them to run Linux, they didn't bother.  It was only when Sony took away Linux did they start trying.  After that, it only took about one year, or the same as the 360.
• Sony did fuck up with their key, it's common sense not to use the same random number over and over again.  That's a pretty big deal.

Are you truely that gullible and naive? You think they live by some code of honour and they hacked the PS3 because SONY removed Linux? The people who are hacking the PS3 would have been looking into this from day 1 of its release.

Hacks are always easy in hindsight, it's only now its been found that they realised how easy it actually was.
