| Apparently, the firm is claiming Anonymous were responsible for the attack, as a file named Anonymous was found on one of Sony’s servers with the words “We are Legion” attached to it. |
Really? You can pin the blame with a text file? :)
|
Really? You can santify them from blame just because one guy said it wasn't them?
Anon is loose nit group with no leader or structure. just because the guy who did the youtube video didn't do the hack doesn't mean the guy who did the hack didn't do it because in support of anon. frankly there is no way to for even anon to know if anon did it at this point.
yes, the hacker could have left that file to frame anon. but also yes, it could have been someone who believes they are anon.
|
I am not saying it can't be anon. I am just saying, that's a flimsy piece of evidence.
|
gotcha, well i can agree with that. but we all know sony would love to have this pinned on anon so if it is the only evidence it will be the evidence they produce.
i wonder if any laws will be added/changed based off of this. hackers that were upset about not being able to hack the ps3 just may find themselves a lot worse off becase of this if congress decides to change laws to protect big buisiness.
|
Not sure but I thought I saw an article that Austriala was going to be changing some of its security laws. Congress should be concerned about protecting consumers not Corporations. But i would not be suprised if that is the route they go.
|
Corporations are run by people. Corporations hire people. Those people are consumers. As business thrives, the people who work for those corporations have a lively hood that allows them to be consumers. Let's not use your false assumption as an excuse to side against Sony again.
|
BP hires people too. Should they have not been dealt with as severely? the laws are there to protect the people, right?
|
I know what you're saying, but the "consumers rights" argument have been abused on these boards to give excuse to bash a console maker in this context. I have openly voiced that the PS3 is my console of choice. Sony has not violated my right as a consumers. Hackers have made my gaming life "harder." When Sony protects their IP, that in turn gives consumers such as I a better gaming experience. Let's not take thing out of context to "prove" a point.
|
No excuse at all. If it was Microsoft or Nintendo in the same situation, I'd still be on the side of consumer rights.
Don't think for a second that this has anything to do about what "team" you support.
you may not have felt that Sony violated your rights, but many others do. You're speaking for the minority, who believe it's okay for a company to screw you, so along as you don't have to admit you're wrong.
