THIS IS WHY

So maliciously gathering the private information of 1000s of people is now seen as "protecting their intelletctual property?"

F***ing really?

We are a site full of pirates. This effects us all. Where does it end? When will Sony come to GBAtemp demanding the information of everyone who posted topics related to PS3 modding, hacking or CFW?

Mark my words. The outcome of this battle will have dire consequences for us all.

Sorry, but they didn't do jack shit to Scientology.
They protested wearing stupid masks and caused a headache for a little bit, then stopped.

Joined JUST so I could correct you on this matter.

Anon is still alive, kicking, and quite enjoying their protests. They haven't stopped and aren't likely to.

Their protests are nothing more than that, they always end up looking stupid for even bothering to get involved, especially when Westboro Baptist and Scientology are concerned.

Yeah, I'm sure most of this site's traffic comes from people looking to play homebrew games

People pirate. I've bet some people here have probably pirated something, but you can't say everyone here is a pirate.

Stop trying to drag this off topic.

Also, look at the most popular sections on this forum. People come here for piracy information and ROM/ISO release info.

Deal with it.

Maybe not everyone is a pirate, but most people here are. And I'm sure you've never downloaded anything protected by the DMCA, right?

Anonymous is not nearly as large as they think and does not have nearly as much power as they think they do. While it is a good effort, they need to do a little fact-checking (it was graf that had his house raided, geohot was ordered by the court to hand over his drives) and perhaps think of other ways to be effective.

Do you want a repeat of this thread or something?

That sentence is inherently flawed. It does not take the entire situation into account, only the perceived goals. You've already been yelled at for doing that multiple threads (including the one I posted where pretty much everybody mocked you), that should be a hint that what you continue to post is not correct... Yet you continue to post it.

My conclusion is you are purposely trying to instigate people. You are repeatedly stating your assessment of the situation and what you think of as facts, after they've been disproven (or debunked) by multiple people in multiple threads.

I wonder what they are going to do. Just protest or go on a massive hack spree.

But anyways, I called this right at the beginning. If Sony didn't fix their attitude, there's going to be a backlash whether they won. No matter what happened, if they won or lost, something is going to happen with Sony.

IMO if Sony screws this up once more, I swear to God...

But yeah some physical protests would be good, but then again not every adult would listen to

"In other news, Anonymous have protested Sony for being fucking dickheads about their console being hacked."

"Sony made a console? What the fuck is 'hacked'?"

Don't go to that site or Sony might subpoena to get your IP Address and sue you.

This post is sarcasm seeing some people cant tell.​
