Ban them all and take them to court.
If you miss features or don’t like the current system them don’t buy it. The hacking on the previous systems is the main reason we don’t have backup saves to memory cards and a functioning webbrowser.
If they don’t like it let them make their own system and their own AAA games. And with them being hackers I ‘m sure they won’t mind somebody opening up their system and pirating their stuff. It’s all about the extra features man! (Yeah, right)
*clap clap clap* Comment of the year.
"Ban all the hackers!"
Fine, whatever. Some of us don't really need online functionality anyway. And a lot of hackers buy a second system so they can go online. So some hackers are actually throwing extra money at console makers just so they can have their cake and eat it, too.
"Take them to court"
And essentially invest more taxpayer dollars toward punishing a group of people, the majority of which aren't even doing much, if any harm. Plus, it would take console makers and and software publishers a lot of money for the legal fees. Not really worth it for anyone.

Some of these anti-hackers are such plebs. From what I understand, hacking the PS3 didn't stop Sony from adding a web browser on the PS4 and cloud save functionality for PS Plus subscribers. Even then, I doubt people are hacking the Switch because they want a flipping web browser, when phones and computers do the job a hell of a lot better, which probably makes the feature less of a demand. Maybe some of us do it for backing up saves, but we also know that the feature is coming soon. Save editing though? Hell yes!

I just love how stupid this comment is, especially when a good portion of the hacking/homebrew scene doesn't even condone piracy. Emulation, sure, but that's still a largely gray area, as there are many titles that have essentially become abandon-ware at this point. And the system thing - why would anyone even do that when it's easier to hack a device instead? Also, console and game developers have business models that take piracy into account anyway. They understand the risk, and they still manage to make money, sometimes even stupid amounts. Even then, how often do you hear about a company being ruined because of piracy?
