If people release "mods" for the MAC OS tomorrow, and then announce wordwide who they are, you seriously think they wouldn't be in trouble for it?

The PS3 OS is not a game, its the OS that supports the PS3. If someone refuses the EULA, then they have no rights to the PSN. So trying to get a way around for the PSN is useless.

Its not the duration that matters, what matters is geohotz released something he has no rights to release. A "mod" for an OS he doesn't own, again is illegal, unless the manufacterers are OK with it, and they aren't. And distribution of that is even more ridiculous.

Chocolo has nothing to worry about, after all, he is working for the consumer rights, isn't he? No of users who play on PSN> no. of homebrewers.

Besides lets assume Sony did wrong by removing Other OS. They are already in the court for it. Two wrongs don't make a right anyway, so chocolo is in the court for it too. 


1. Don't people release modifications all the time for operating systems? I mean, I download stuff that modifies my system all the time. I know there is a Mac version of rainmaker out.

2. If someone refuses the EULA they lose access to playing new games. Not just PSN. How useful is a PS3 without games?

3. Then why isn't he charged with anything if it's so illega? You'd think he'd somehow be nder arrest if whathe is doing is so illegal

4.Right now I'm not even very sure what he has done. All he has done is release how to get past lvl 2 hypervisor. It all sound interesting actually. Reading this source it says with it he may be able to bring back b/c. Again he hasn't be arrested, just like Geo
