You know, this is something I've been trying to think through myself. Are they, in a sense, attempting to censor Sony for Sony's attempt at censoring? And is that okay? I think so. I'm not totally sure, but I do believe it it okay. I mean, Sony is attempting to censor Geohot and other hackers from their free speech right to share information. So I think fighting fire with fire is okay here.
Now, sure, it's not so black and white to say that the hackers actually have that right to share that information. Legal precedence says yes, but with the way this judge really seems to favor Sony, it can turn out either way.
Also, the whole subpoenaing for IPs for anyone who's visited the site since 2009 is very very anti-privacy. I mean, 2009? Is that when this recent hack was first released? That part of that really bothers me. Just visiting a site can get you put on a list. That just doesn't seem fair/right/just/legal to me.

are you opposing the free flow of information? shame on you!

There's a difference between censorship and privacy. You should learn about that fine difference before you notice your own shame, if you ever do. Also, update the OP. As ssj12 and I have pointed out, there was an update.

there is also a difference between legal action and illegal action. So, what is your point?

Which illegal are you referring to, Anon illegal or Geohot "illegal"?
And you still haven't updated your OP, it would take you like, 10 seconds. Misleading thread is misleading.
