Hykem got raided

[Phantisy]

Still find this hard to believe.. Hykem is signed in to IRC, you would think if he had been raided he wouldn't have access to a computer especially less than 24 hours after the supposed raid.

If it is true then this is a really shit move by Nintendo and strange as other developers have shown a lot more progress with the WIIU than Hykem has yet they are untouched. Nintendo deserve everything they get and hopefully something will eventually get leaked.

I guess all we can do is thank Hykem for keys and documentation he has left us.

You can be signed in to IRC from another location using an Eggdrop bot.Then you can disconnect from the bot and the eggdrop will stay logged in for you. Him being "logged" on to IRC means nothing. This is how people protect their IP's from IRC users.

How do you know that hykem got raided if he has nothing to communicate with?

apparently he was spotted on irc this morning.....

I'm a troll just for asking if he knows the keys screenshot is real? Oh wait I'm not saying Heil Hykem so of course I'm a troll!


THIS ISN'T REAL.

Nice try !

You'll find more lies in the new york times than any random person on the internet, just sayin.

well, even with that perspective what i said still stands, just in a different way than intended.

you know people are reaching for arguments when they even jump on crediar, the man himself.

I hope hykem gets out of this soon.

 

[jefffisher]

well i didn't believe it but crediar i believe, it's good he didn't get arrested though.

I don't believe for one second that he got raided because of his IOSU stuff. If Nintendo wanted to go after somebody, I reckon smea and friends would be first targets. He probably had some other stuff going around that ain't nobody's business.

It's called a phone most people have it in their home.

It doesnt matter if he broke any laws or not.
If a woman can sue McDonald because the coffee was too hot, the law department of a multibillion dollar company can find some obscene law to get you raided.
If Nintendo wants to push this then they could drag it out in courts for years.
The odd thing is I would expect before resorting to this kind of measures they would first send a cease and desist letter and then take any further actions.

What makes you think they haven't already sent him a C&D? It's not like we would necessarily be informed of it if it happened.

You are talking about bouncers, eggdrops normally serve a different purpose on irc.

You should read the real story behind why she sued them. She asked them to pay her doctor bills bills because the coffee was how enough (about 185F) to melt your skin off. If it was at the temperature they have to keep it at today (135F), it would of only been a 2nd degree burn. But back to the topic, I do not believe this has happened without proof of some sort.

This is very funny stuff in this thread.
I can tell you for sure....(if any of it's even true) It has absolutely nothing to do with game consoles. If he was in fact raided it was for something else he was working on. The only thing that would arise from console hacking would be a lawsuit.
Also, You can wipe encrypted drives all you want but recovering at least parts of it is always possible. (may not be able to do anything with any of the data but you get the drift)
If it in any way had anything to do with the console it would be the security company that licensed to nintendo.....(greenhills software) As they also do many things for government entities.
Other than that there is nothing even remotely close to being released that would ever get a judge to sign a search and seize warrant...(at least in the US)
That being said Hykem had many projects cooking I would be willing to bet if he did get his stuff seized it was from one of those other projects.
None the less if it's true he was warned there was a bounty for information....(doubt it has anything to do with nintendo though)
All I can say is if it's true and it was a result of Nintendo then there are four other people that should be careful as their bounties are marked as claimed as well.

This x1000. If it's true, I don't think it was just PC hardware they were taking, I bet there was some other hardware with Nintendo or SONY printed all over it ...

There was some drama brewing days before all this happened, thinking it had more to do with a repost of someone else's pastebin.

Was it said were Crediar got his info from. Has it been stated on any actual credible source. Not saying Crediar isn't credible just I'm not sure were he got his Info from. When Geohot got in trouble there was News sources and actual court documents.

 

[Joe88]

Not really, if he really got doxed, then I think said companies would still go after him
