Sony Sends Cops to PS3 Hacker's Home

PS3 hacking community member graf_chokolo says that Sony and the police raided his home and warns others to "be careful from now on."

A member of the PS3 hacking community known as graf_chokolo is learning the hard way that Sony means business when it comes to preventing people from circumventing the gaming consoles DRM protection scheme.

His "PS3 Linux And Hypervisor Reverse Engineering Blog" was used by him and others to share "current and future findings in the PS3 security," and the efforts apparently got far enough to make Sony sit and up and take notice.

"Guys, SONY was today at my home with police and got all my stuff and accounts," he wrote yesterday. "So be careful from now on."

This was made just a day after posting the successful implementation of a simple firmware updater.

He says the police raid "was a matter of time" really, and warns others to lay low.

Yet, he made sure to release all the data he's come up with so far.

Guys, i don't joke, it's serious.

"And to prove it, i kept my word and uploaded all my HV reversing stuff," he adds. "Upload it everywhere so SONY couldn't remove it easily. Grab it guys, it contains lots of knowledge about HV and HV procs."

There's links to the data are up on his blog, at least for now, and it makes it even more confusing as to what Sony hopes to accomplish.

Moreover, it ought to be legal for consumers to modify purchased products to suit their needs, especially something like the PS3 which even Sony markets as a home entertainment system.

Not a day. Not a single day Sony has tried to not act like a idiot in a last week or so. What legal rights does Sony have, to raid a PS3's info disclosing person house? Not to forget, who fagot of a judge signed those raid papers without looking at the evidence. I don't think Sony can play a piracy card this time.

Hide your kids, hide your wife and hide your husband cuz Sony's rapin everybody out here. :P

For sake of releasing toxic gases into the atmosphere.. Its time to burn your PS3's... PS2's.. and PS1's.. PSP's and rip the ads down... If I buy it.. I own it.. if I do something to it and share it with someone who wants to do it too.. THEN.. so be it.. mine.. bottom-line.. otherwise your paying someone to spend you money by financing a purchase and then turning around and finding out that its only a rental that someone else is going to sit there and tell you what you can and can't do with it.. I swear I would reject every shipment of them into the US and send everything here back....

I mean it more now than I ever have...disconnect and boycott... Find another avenue of less communistic view on the corporate monopoly.. ( not to mention the stupidity of anyone along these lines to put the stupidity to a halt ) .. There should be a binding statute which limits the hands of said corporations and business.. and it should be kept within its boundaries... Its a legalized robbery... and a violations of intellectual property of the citizens of the United States in their knowledge and what they are empowered and intelligent enough to do and to make use of as tools.. that they have purchased for themselves..

Obviously an inferior product which cannot meet the needs of its consumers..

Sony = degenerate retards .....frusty.gif ...

if you so f###ng care about your products and think that what you developed and made and launched into the market to SELL ,

you still own every damn right on it for all the eternity ,

even if some one actually BUYS it with their hard earned bucks and after paying all the taxes .,,,,

then why do you even offer to sell your products in the first place .....

i bought it , its mine now and what ever i do with it ( play with it , fry it , throw it in fire , make sling shots of it , hammer it , rip it , feed it to my dog , pee pee on it .... ) , is my business . i ll do what i want ..!!

if its yours then why do you offer it for ownership to some one if he is ready to pay big bucks for it ...???

if it yours keep it , no body wants it ....mad.gif

bullsh!t ....

( its like i bought a Pillsbury Chocolate Cake Mix and added some vanilla and coffee to it for my taste,,

and now sue me ..!! coz the packing doesnt mention addition of any other ingredient to the premix .... !!! WTF !!! )

heres an advice for Sony --

create an island or some kind of a secluded underground society or some big warehouse in an undisclosed location or a whole planet in an outer space and name it

SONY WORLD .

only people who are Sony staff and their progenies are allowed to reside in it .

they are allowed to use only Sony products .

Sony tv , Sony computers , Sony cereals , Sony chicken , Sony whisky , Sony beds , Sony condoms ....................

this would make our world rid of one of the big corporate bullies and ease our working ....

go f@#k yourselves ......ph34r.gif
