ThePirateBay is still online because they *don't* deal with piracy. They offer torrent files which have nothing to do with the copyrighted material. It's the Torrent users that break the law if the data they share is illegal.

And the laws where they're from. Look at their email thing where companies email them, and they reply back saying their laws does not affect TPB.
Too bad that fact doesn't hold up when going up against the billion dollar corporations... See ISOhunt.Foxi4 said:

Uh, the consumers? It may not affect those that don't use the PSN but I'm pretty sure those that do will be very pissed. Besides, this is a video game thread. If you're going to say that "It's just a damn video game, get over it.", then I don't think your in the right place. Also, it's not just ONE damn video game, it's all damn video games on the PS3 that you can't play online, and that's very important, to the consumers, to Sony, and to the people who hacked it.Jakob95 said:
Speaking of isohunt, you know that site doesn't work for me, at all. Years ago, it used to, it was even my favorite torrent site and I went to it like every day. But then they changed it a while back to test out some "lite" version or some crap like that. And since then, I haven't been able to view the site. It constantly loads, and it's rare that a page will load. And by load, I mean it's all broken. My friend who goes to it, who lives down the street from me, has no problem viewing it, it's stupid.
you can just bypass the US blockout with the crappy lite versionShadowSoldier said:

Your theory is out there but it might be true. If it's true. I think they're going to use this as a loop-hole to switch everyone to the new 3rd party servers (SNEA)they've been talking about without getting consent from the users.DarkLG said:
Who knows, I've seen so many posts that directly says the name of the sites (few mods), that I don't even know what that rule applies to now.zeromac said:

When I read that, I can't help but think that a lot of users personal information was at risk...

Blatantly lying like this would not carry any favour. AOL once pulled this on us a few months ago. Our internet was out for a week and AOL refused to tell us why. AOL kept saying it must be our end as there were no line faults. This was crap, our router was completely fine. There were loads of other customers in my area having the same troubles. It was crap customer service. Basically: If they lie it will piss off a LOT of people. Also a fuck up wouldn't need an entire rebuild.DarkLG said:
What I reckon happened is some incredibly hacking group decided to orchestrate a large hack of the PSN. In order to cause the most disruption (and therefore most fun) they coincided it with the EU release of Portal 2 when a large amount of users would require the service to activate their Steam copies. Its far too much of a coincidence that Sony would fuck up on Portal's release.
As for the 3rd party servers. If they do perform the switch then they'll get user consent through a EULA update you must agree to to use PSN.

Conspiracy Theorist much?
As far as I know, Sony has a track record of some lies. They're no more reputable than a hacking group.

Something must be seriously wrong if they had to take the whole network offline to rebuild it! Normally you would rebuild it and test it in a sandbox type enviroment and then switch over to the new service! How odd!?
