| Joe Black said: Wow, is there something seriously wrong with you? Legal? Assaulting people's rights? The only people they supposedly "assaulted" are the two hackers. And this IS dealing with piracy. They are protecting their product. The software on the console is licensed. I reiterate, YOU DO NOT OWN THE OPERATING SYSTEM. So modifying it in any way shape or form, especially in a way that completely opens the door to piracy, is illegal. And the only people harassing customers are the hackers who just took down PSN when supposedly asserting our rights. Really, where do they make idiots like yourself? |
You own your copy of the operating system, not the rights to redistribute it, certainly, but you own your copy, and they can't take that away from you. Services available through the operating system like PSN certainly, but the OS is part and parcel with the device that you paid for and is legally yours, and you are allowed to back it up or modify as you see fit for your own personal purposes, and there's nothing wrong with distributing the information for how to do so so that others may do the same
Piracy comes into the picture? Sure, deal with the pirates, but don't attack the innocents because you can't stop the piracy or fix your own online service.
Bullying is a good term for it. When you can't fix your own problems, take it out on someone else, preferably someone too small or weak to fight back.
