By the way, am I right in assuming devs don't have access to much of the PS4 functions? Backups can work because they basically trick the PS4 into thinking the signature is legit, but home-made code still wouldn't have access to 100% of the console's resources, maybe only some CPU instructions?

Nope, if you have access to Sony official SDK you can create applications and fake sign them right now, but you can't use it without a Sony license without committing copyright infringement...

You can just login to the playstation store using your browser, and purchase from there. It'll be added to your account, waiting for you to download whenever we get spoofing up and running.

It's how I ensure I keep getting the PSplus free games while I'm disconnected from the internet (or traveling).

OMG really?! If I knew this before, my PS4 would be in the 4.07-4.55 range. Now I'm on 5.03. Oh well.

Oh. So basically, they might be afraid of legal consequences, but the tools and access are there. Well than that's surprising - the lack of homebrew I mean.

No, it's not.

Don't expect to see a lot of homebrews without an SDK created from scratch (clean room implementation) with enough functionality and a liberal license.

So most of the scene devs want to inflate their ego and want us to "beg of them" to release the kexploit!?
"Hey look fellas, I haz the 5.XX expl01t and can run GOW! here is a video!! but no we can't release it for ya" - PS4 scene typical dev
I miss all ps3 scene dev

I don't see this ever happening. I guess we just have to move on and enjoy online. There is nothing us 5.0x scrubs we can do. Like really.

Yeah, but I have no idea how difficult it would be to persecute those who actually choose to use the SDK. That's why I'm a bit surprised.
And in addition, I have no idea how this works with other platforms and what was used as a basis on, e.g. Vita or the 360.
