I know I will get plwnty of people that say thats wrong, but think about it for a min let it sink in, sony did not force the update they had to ask the consumer to do so. It was all or none, the heads would not allow knowing hacked systems with out trying to prevent those exploited systems to be "ok let them all on knowing full well they have or could have an exploited system" sony did they only thing they could have done, remove the threat at the base point no ps3 slim shipped with the native ability to load other os, and than gave the consumer the option to keep the Linux but not running on the network. They could say yeah patch the kernel, but would hackers do so? 

 

Law of prudence, what would a prudent man do?

You are right....Sony did not require you to upgrade to the latest firmware.  However, Sony had a number of DRM restrictions that would essentially force you to upgrade.

1.) It will be impossible to play PS3 games online.

2.) It will be impossible to play new PS3 games

3.) It will be impossible to watch new Blu-ray movies

4.) New Blu-ray discs could even disable the Blu-ray drive entirely if they contain an AACS Host Revocation LIst that affects the old firmware version.

5.) Videos on DTCP-IP media servers will be disabled.


None of those things Justify what the hackers did. Why don't they hack EA servers instead? they do the same things but even worse.

What things do you speak of?  


somebody has been living under a rock.

Then humor me because I don't think you know why.

I don't have to humor you. In fact that you're a Hacking sympathizer show's you how much you actually know.

There is no sense in talking to someone who has absolutely no clue what they are talking about...

Such as this person on the internet who uses 1337 in his name.

Just read this:
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/03/sony-steals-feature-from-your-playstation-3


"Anonymous had announced on 4 APril that it would attack Sony because the Japanese corporation decided to pursue legal action against George Hotz, who had discovered and then shared the "root key" of the PS3, which would mean that anyone could potentially play any game on it - including pirated ones."

 

Can you blame them for disabling that?

Ah yes, the ad hominem attack.  The moment when you no longer have anything intelligent left to say.



They are just begging for more rigid criminal laws against hacking.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.
