The people at PSX-Scene have said this is untrue

"Hotz is currently on vacation in a South American country. As common sense would dictate, there is no reason to "flee" from a civil case."

Oh, this is hilarious.

I warned you that siding with Geohot was a waste of time, that donating to him was a lost cause, but noooooooooo. All you rambled on about was how he was a bastion of truth, an honourable soldier against the tyrannical Sony Corporation that's trying to rewrite consumer laws so that they can force you to use their PS3s with Sony televisions.

Where's your saviour now? Oh right, he used all your money to run away to another country. The amount of money you gave him, he's never coming back. You actually thought he donated the surpass money to charity? Don't make me laugh! He played you all for fools. He knew Sony would string him up by the balls the second they got his harddrives. That's why he asked for the donations - so he could afford a plane ticket to South America. It's made all the better by how the guy posted, as blickmaniac which is the PSN ID of an account he supposedly never had, “Just curious what people would pay for exclusive rights to this solution. [Motorola] Tracfone W175g unlocked and debranded. PM me”. Clearly Geohot first wanted to sell his "jailbreaks", but then decided it'd be much more lucrative to just blackmail companies themselves.

In hindsight, all that flaming I got for speaking against the guy... It's all so very ironic. Some people sure know how to put faith in the wrong person.

Over-zealous dramatic wording, and "I told ya so"s aside...
In South America =/= I took all your money and fled to South America

I've never supported GeoHotz, but I really don't want his case to set a precident.

Reading through the first 2 or 3 pages would've told you it doesn't necessarily mean he fled. It was just known that he was there during this time either on his own vacation or other reasons.
Which is why I put "GeoHot flees to South America?" and not "GeHot flees to South America!!!"

Aside from that... There's still this entire case going on and how there are missing components.

here's his source:

The Central ScrutinizerIn a lame attempt to direct traffic to their pathetic websites, some sources are now reporting that Geohot has "fled" the country after court documents reveal a PSN account alleged to belong to him. Normally, we would not report on something so completely ridiculous but, unfortunately, this nonsense is starting to spread to mainstream websites.

Hotz is currently on vacation in a South American country. As common sense would dictate, there is no reason to "flee" from a civil case. These sites have based their claims on misinterpretations of the court documents and an image posted on Geohot's blog.

In the future, we recommend only getting your news from reputable sites. When there's something real to report on the case, you''ll read it here, as always.

Life's good.

Is that Hotz??? why would he pose like that??

It would seem that for now, the flaming you received is justified.

Actually this is a Sony conspiracy.

George Hotz, aka Mitch Connor, is a Sony employee in secret. He was "sued" for his "alleged" PS3 hacking to intimidate hackers. Then, when everyone donated money to him, they shipped Mitch over to South America where he was able to run off with the money to start a secret rebellion in Paraguay. There, Sony would establish the nation of Sony Computer Entertainment of Sony, where they'll have a monopoly in the SCES market of video gaming as well as a business that only obeys their own rules. No more needing to bother with bribing the legal system when it's their own.

No real comment here though, I'm sick of Geohot. I just hope we get a postcard when he comes back.

Of course he didn't donate 95% of the bounty... It was 98%.

I hope you guys are actually reading posts before blindly commenting on the situation v_v
