| Admiral-Snake said: The PS3 was bound to get hacked regardless of whether Linux was there or not. Removing it just made the hackers more aggressive towards hacking the PS3 even more. People need to stop using "Oh because Sony removed Linux this is why it got hacked"... Thats nonsense and people who use that logic or agree with it knows it. I think people use that in general as a way to give them a reason why this whole hacking crap started. I really don't care about Hacking, Jailbreaking, w.e you wanna call it. I play my PS3 to play games and not do all this other nonsense people cry about. Yes I find it annoying when I have to patch a firmware update that is not giving me nothing new except patches to make counter the hackers. However Sony is a company and they will do what they must to fight anyone they feel is abusing their devices. I'm not taking any sides in this lame debate, but I do indeed understand both sides of the story. |
