Unfounded rumour: Hackers planning third attack on Sony

[Rydian]

Why is it that some stupid arse pirates are going to hack or crack it again. Think about this: If you dont buy game, you cant go online. Piracy its called. Now pirates are going to do this again, because they actually want to play pirated software, while they arent allowed to. Seriously, this isnt fighting for a good cause, its because children arent getting what they want without paying for their stuff.

This has nothing to do with pirated games.

I really cannot wait for PSN to be back up and the hackers be caught.
Sony will do worse things to them than if they dropped their soap in the prison showers.

Why then... because of that fight for the hackers who have been sued? For freedom of stupid free blah blah that seems to get support by many anonyjerks and such. I don't feel for people like Geohotz, Grafblah, or any of those people. I dont know Rydian, but this isnt a freedom fight anymore, this is a childish fight for them getting what they want: Piracy, theft, and feeling superior by harming many innocent people.

Geohot was after a legitimate way to homebrew and a return of of OtherOS. Not piracy.

It's common sense that people are going to use it to pirate tho...

This is a separate group of unknowns.

You can't pirate on his mod, you need to use addons built by other people, or a competitor's mod.

Oh great, just when I thought I could get back to PSN soon...

I suppose when life was giving out free common sense, you said "nah im good" ? Because you had any common sense, you would know that Geohot's hack didn't allow piracy.

Actually that's not common sense, that's research.

Except for the fact that it's been plastered all over this site whenever a mention of Geohot comes up, it's pretty much common sense now, isn't it?

Not really, common sense would be something like walking around a puddle instead of walking through. It's common sense to know that Geohot's CFW doesn't allow piracy. (although anyone making statements like FireGrey did should've read up on it first)

Now this is just sad....Are they trying to bring Sony/SCE down completely?

 

[Zetta_x]

I give up, I have come to realize that trying to push intelligence and logic to specific individuals is way to time consuming and worthless when the majority of the entire human population fail worse with logic. Humans are dragging each other down with retarded logic.

While Anonymous is the name of a group, the probability this group had any affiliations with the breach at Sony is dramatically low. Not only that, but people need to understand that anonymous is also an idea and represents holding back an identity. I wish to remain anonymous. There are probably several if not hundreds of groups who are anonymous such that their identity is hidden and yet we continue to point at the one group who actually call themselves anonymous.

I realized, this post will do nothing to increase the intelligence of the human population.

People actually could modify it to run, because he released the keys... the result was the same.

Homebrews? Where? The ones I've saw posted on the start: Backup Loaders. Like... 4 or 5 of them.

But I agree that Geohot wasn't the first one to allow piracy on the console, it was PSGroove and similar hardware. Even if it was a bit restrictive.

About the topic, I'll not comment anything. I already said what I think about this in other topics/forums many times. =/

Not a bright day to be a gamer.

As much as I hate Sony, taking them down would negatively affect Japan's current economy and indirectly fuck Nintendo as well.

...How would nintendo be affected? Wouldn't that mean more cash flow for them? :/

It's how the public would react.

 

[Recorderdude]

Just saw this on the local news. Wish the hackers could find a way to punish sony for their copywrong that didn't hurt ordinary people...are they really even doing it for revenge anymore?

 

[jerome27]

Once sony attacked my faith they were forever on my enemies list. I hope the hackers wipe them out. And they will. What's happening to sony right now is real old testament, wrath of god shit. And its not going to end until the company is forever driven from the gaming market. Think I'm a fanatic? Well you would feel the same way if someone spit on your most cherished beliefs.

Karma is a bitch.
