Sony patches DNS Bypass, Sony demands Youtube/Twitter to give

[antwill]

Jesus Christ you all sound like a bunch of spoilt children who throw a tantrum because they didn't get their way. Do you even read what you all post?! My God, I'd say I was shocked but this is a Nintendo fanboy forum after all...

But still, go ahead and hate Sony for some stupid reason you want, but at least make your posts more intelligent.

What...about this place...makes us all Nintendo fanboys? You say we don't have the right to be pissed at Sony for, literally, trying to invade our privacy that they have no right at all to do? Spoilt children? You're the one sounding really STUPID here...

Most of you don't even have a PS3 (and would only buy one for "homebrews"). Sony couldn't do shit with IP numbers. Sony already lost this. I don't see reason to be pissed off.

Its just the fact that they have the AUDACITY to even ATTEMPT such a stunt pisses me off!

You guys might be crying out, but you'll be surprised at how many people are siding with Sony. I've seen many a argument that Sony is rightfully protecting their product.

Something a contact of mine said:

"The whole hacking thing is stupid anyway. Hooray, you can play SNES games on your PS3, fantastic. It's all going to be used for piracy anyway, so what's the point? Sony is in the right here."

That viewpoint is held my many. Just keep that in mind.

Personally, I think it's wrong. I think that once you buy something, it's yours, but I digress. This whole thing is overblown anyway, like most lawsuits are.

I recognize the view that Sony is justifiably trying to protect their intellectual property. Sounds pretty fancy. They argue that anyone who buys their product should be bound to limits they have tried to engineer into their product. But when they say that OtherOS will be supported, and then makes an update to remove access to it, that is shady. Sony's development and use of rootkit stealthware technology was criminal, and the technology made by Sony is now used by criminal organizations to make viruses, botnets, or other malware. Sony's actions in the past have been controversial, shady, and downright criminal which make me lose faith in their rightness and believe their actions now are a show of power and test to see how much they can directly confine users to comply with their limits. The result of Sony's actions will likely influence how corporations handle similar issues in the future.

I believe that people should be free to use what they own as they wish, and be safe to experiment on or expand the usefulness of their belongings. To me it is bizarre to think anyone would not stand up for their freedom of action, especially in regards to their own belongings.

Sony BGM used it on the past, they already paid for that. Sony is not using rootkits on PS3.

Yes, I am aware it was a few years ago. I will edit my comment to say 'was' instead of 'is'

Everyone forget Liksang?

http://www.lik-sang.com/

Sued in multiple countries back in 2006 because they exported japanese PSPs. Liksang had to close since they couldn't afford to represent themselves in so many courts. The excuse was that "ultimately, we're trying to protect consumers from being sold hardware that does not conform to strict EU or UK consumer safety standards, due to voltage supply differences et cetera;"

Reality was that Liksang was charging less than Sony was for their PSPs in Europe.

I've bought used Sony products whenever possible since then or buy competitor products when applicable (See: FFXIII on 360)

Only PS3 game I've bought new in the last year was LBP2. It's not difficult to wait, I have tons of 360/PC games to play, anyway.

Most of you don't even have a PS3 (and would only buy one for "homebrews").

First: Can you blame us? Most of the titles on the PS3 are grimdark-shootan-gaems that are available on PC or 360 anyway, or are crappy exclusive titles that either have little in terms of gameplay (Heavy Rain) lost their luster in the PS2 days (Ratchet and Clank). Although there is a Sly Cooper collection coming out soon, but that's hardly worth justifying a $400+ purchase.

Second: Most of the homebrew for PS3 at current are just emulators that I already have for Wii homebrew.

On topic:
While I don't particularly agree with Sony's practice, they are just protecting their product, something they have a right to do. If you were a big-name company in fear of losing sales (however minuscule) you'd do the same.

Sony is overreacting a bit I think, but it's just business. As a company you want to maximize sales, even if that means gaining back a 1% that could have possibly switched to piracy, while the other 99% gets their PS3 games the right way.

Sony is ovearcting for sure. The only thing they should do is keep "homebrew" users away from PSN (and they are keeping long to do this).

 

[Fo0+]

I can't imagine anything else but Sony going in the wrong direction about this.
I guess they'll just getting the opposite effect out of it.
By hushing and sueing people they actually make the public more interested in
what kind of material that lays behind their decision to take such harsh actions.
I guess Sony haven't heard about the Streisand effect.

Well, "hating" Sony because of such an stupid act (even if no other copmpany would do it)...NO.
"Hating" Sony/BMG because they put Rootkits into CDs, for destroying Napster (BMG), for being the only Company which don't allow Music on Youtube (Sony/BMG in Germany)... YES!

At all, why should Google give the IPs?
They don't even care to put all this hateful videos against Christians,Jews,Muslims, Blacks etc. offline...Youtube is like an anarchy...as long as u don't upload hardcore porns.

Maybe you're talking about XBOX 360... PS3 have a lot of variety in games, RPGs, Racing, Sports, Fighters... you just choose to look on the wrong titles or compared it to PS2 (a videogame who almost all companies wanted to develop to, that's not the case with PS3). Even on 360, because of XLBA, you see a LOT of great indie games and some variety of games if you get past all the shooters that console have.

Anyway: The homebrews I was talking about was backup managers, the only homebrew who most of people cares, the others would only be bonuses.

holy shit is sony nuts asking for peoples ip addresses in what world do we live in wen sony can ask for anything the want THE HORROR

The 360 has the same amount of variety as the PS3. Dunno what you keep going on about, but you obviously haven't been keeping up with the 360.
