Once again, corporate interest. The only corporate interest that the law enforces are binding contracts, copyright etc. It's why we live in a Democracy, and not a Corporate Oligarchy
The software was actualy modded with the PS3 Update program, too, so it would be difficult to charge them with that.

ok, back to my point which you didnt answer, is it ok in every case to say "it's my property ill do what i want with it" even if it breaks rules/laws that end up with you in court, is that statment a mature excuse/response to say to the judge?
i just want a simple yes or no

The only reason you can't do something with your house is saftey/health reasons that invovle other people.
So yeah, it is a mature response to say "it's my property i'll do what I want with it" if it dosen't effect other peoples health and well being... because it's not illegal.
|
Its not just health and safety..... It can be something as simple as blocking a neighbours view, or the style not fitting in with the area, Yes councils can be that fussy, i guess you could go against them and carry on with it, just don't be upset if they find out and take action
I guess our views are just different, I don't think its a mature response and you do, Neither of us or right or wrong, its just opinion
|
Actually, if they took you to court for that... they'd probably lose. It's like sony in this case. It's more about the threat then any actual legality of it. They hope you'll backdown and not want to spend the money to fight.
Which is the real immature action.
Unless it's a REALLY big issue that really effects your neighbors. Though such an effect would have to be very big to actually be enforcable.
90% of those claims are realy just bullying that isn't enforceable.

ok how about you buy a van, and you start putting home made red diesel in it, which is illigal..... is doesnt hurt anyone or have an effect on anyone else, but if you get caught using it your in trouble., which any car van or lorry can be pulled over at random and tested at any vosa stations all about the place.
|
Red Diesal hurts the enviroment, because it being cheap is going to increases your driving habits. We don't really have that in the US though. Red Dye for like, sulfurus fuel, but that's about it, and for enviroemntal reasons.

hacked consoles can hurt the gaming industry, we could go at this all day, neither of us are going to change our minds at least ill say thanks for not talking down to me or in a patronizing way like some fat guy in his avatar with blonde highlights

A) I'd say Prove it. The majority of Scientific studies prove elsewise. Aside from which, he didn't allow piracy in his firmware... and he went out of his way to try and stop piracy, which in of itself would put him in the free and clear.
B) The gaming Industry isn't a person, or an en viroment. Me making a better cookie the tolhouse hurts the cookie industry. It espiecally hurts it if I publish my recipe online. Still, not illegal.
