Personally I don't feel Sony had any right whatsoever to attack Geohot, at all.  And I am VERY against piracy but the fact reamins Geo didn't commit piracy, he never broke the law.

But what Anon is doing by threatening the PSN and going after high ranking Sony officials families and such is beyond rediculous.

no he just published the tools to commit piracy and ruin the experience of real gamers looking to enjoy our games.

Sony had every right to take Geo to court.  The problem here is not the lawsuit itself, it is the fact that the court ruled in Sony's favor (when really they should have thrown it out to begin with).

The question i'm asking myself is "what does sony get if they win?", I mean wouldn't have been easier to hire him an put him on the security team?

They will end up with information they should not have: The IP addresses of everyone who watched the videos, the financial records of everyone who donated to Geo...etc.

You know, there has to be more to this entire endeavor.  Sony has to be looking for something in particular in all of this personal info.

 

Let me be clear tho.  I believe Sony had every right to seek legal action in every aspect possible.  Does that mean they should win every suit they bring forward? No.

all they want is to tie as much evidence as possible to california so they can try him there. and they only got IP adresses, no names no otherinformations about the people who used them. all they are intersted are the general locations of access, not individuals. and even the use of that information has been severely restricted by the court.
