Who said i was supporting SONY? I am not supporting ANYONE. And it sounds like you are supporting a community that and i quote " that care nothing of *you*". The blame is on Hotz and anyone involved in hacking the PS3. I mean really, why did every other console get hacked? Are you going to say "because of the ummmm ummm...."

There is nothing to fight, this would have happened even if linux had stayed on the console. Stop kidding yourself by saying "Its all Sony's fought!". 

Alright, I will refute this entire post.

#1.) Homebrew community not caring.

Numerous releases from the homebrew community whether it be SNSES9x, GNES, Nesticle, private online servers, homebrew indy title, etc... almost always have community forums where people give info on what they would like to see added/removed, bugs found, etc... and all of this work done over a long period of time by these homebrew developers is done 100% free of charge.

#2.) Why did the other consoles get hacked?

Easy, they never allowed homebrew from the get go. PS3 did.

Read the statement by Team0verflow. PS3 didn't last this long because SONY made some unbreakable code. It lasted so long because there was no reason for the community to do so. The 360 is actually a more secure console than the PS3.

#3.) This would have happened if Linux stayed on the console.

Is a possibility, but remember, the PS3 scene didn't really start getting into full swing until after Linux was removed, so your claim is actually more BS than mine is. I can actually back mine up.

 

A certain user's sig says it all in this situation as it helps to know about the scene if you are to argue against it.

 

I know plenty. I know how a community like that shouldn't exist in the first place. Modding your own console should be enough. There is no reason for the mass spread. Except for fame, which is exactly what the hackers want. And at what cost? The cost of pirates pirating games. It just isn't worth it but they do it anyways.
