Some people want to see the world burn.
This news is really sad. I've seen a lot of victims in reddit because of this release.
I feel you man. I too have seen those affected over on Reddit!
But then the ultimate question is this?
Did they deserve it? I myself see two answers to said question
1st Answer= Well, They were pirating so they should have foreseen that there might be risks related to bricking if they are installing random .Vpks from stangers.
2nd Answer= Despite them pirating vita games, they diddnt deserve to have their vitas bricked permanently!
Regardless of what answer people wanna go with. The reality of the matter is that Yes it happened and it YES could happen again if people aren't careful enough when Downloading/installing .vpks.
I myself believe that the following "Patience is a virtue" should be used whenever a new dump is uploaded on the net.
