Sony,FOX,PBS,Amazon,Celebrities plus many more are getting hacked by these losers lately seems like the internet is being runned by anarchist. They'll keep doing this till everyone joins up and goes after them!

That and the government will start regulating the internet heavily.  Like I said in another thread, these hackers are so shortsighted.  So are their supporters.  If Sony ever went down, which I doubt it will, who's next?  Maybe MS or Nintendo, whichever company is next to make the "mistake" of ticking off the hackers in the process of protecting their interests.  To both groups, have fun til it lasts.

Sony won't go down but it's nice to see someone on this website willing to admit SONY'S attacking GEOHOT was a HUGE MISTAKE. 

Way to misinterpret my post.  I didn't say it was a mistake (hence the qoutations around the word), and never said it was a HUGE one.  Sony did what they felt was right for their company.  Doesn't matter if you agree with it or not, they have every right to do so.  The courts are the ones who are to decide what is right and what is wrong.  Of course, Geohot didn't allow the court to make a final verdict, as he settled beforehand.  But whatever was decided in that court should have been accepted by the hackers, or if they didn't agree, they could have done the mature thing and requested Geohot make an appeal.  Instead, they acted like children and tried to hurt Sony in their own way.  A way that has brought a public eye on this hacking situation and turned many against the hackers, even though they claimed to be doing it for the consumers.  I wouldn't be surprised if the government starts getting stricter with the internet.  And really, they should have been doing something earlier.  The internet should not be a place for people to just do whatever the Hell they wish, especially when it hurts other individuals.


exactly right. what people need to realize is what sony did was not wrong. they were within their rights doing what they did. it does not give hackers a right to fuck with them. the hackers are the wrong ones. the court system is in place to protect all parties. the consumer rights and the business' property.  sony didn't cause any issues among geohot...
