Good Job to E-mpire on that article. A lot of people are linking to it. Its great. :)
OOOOOOH wow! Michael's supporting GeoHotz! What a douche!
A guy also affected by the PSN attack says: "GeoHotz is not at fault!"
FAIL! He unlocked PS3 wide, wide open, and release the keys to the system.
Hardware hacking > Software Hacking [XMB OS] > PSN Attack.
Its not really rocket science.
EDIT: BTW, XBL WAS breached, XBL WAS hacked.
Excellent comment, WELL SAID! :) Bubbles up!
When are you going to understand that this is a case of "cause and effect?" I think never, because you LOOOVE geohotz.
When you release the keys of PS3, and release it to the internet, of course, you're to blame for something like this. Its not rocket science.
We disagree with you because YOU don't get it. GeoHot said "here I hacked the system." Then he left the keys out in the world, "here I have released the keys!" Or shall I say, "I opened pandora's box. Destroy Sony! Have at them!"
Now you're backing GeoHotz when he is the original guy who cracked the entire system wide-open for the world to destroy. PSN's hacking was a DIRECT result of GeoHotz's hacking and release of the keys....
Yeah, its a lot like Al Qaeda coming out of the closet and saying "I did it! We did it! We want war!" Ridiculous.
I agree. "I'm innocent! I didn't hack them." Yeah right.
Exactly what I said @DrStab. lol.
I LOVE this quote:
"When you have egotistical self-centered nerds that think by attacking multi-billion dollar corporations they will somehow be remembered as online folk heroes, there may be problems."
I wish more people thought like this.
"We're heroes of gamers world-wide!" - Typical Anonymous sissy girl.
You're not. Really, you're just a kid behind a computer that is anonymous.
"Sony is incompetent!" HAHAHAHAhahahahaha.....hahahah a.
Give me a break Anonymous.
How about this, YOU'RE incompetent! You can't stand NOT being in the spotlight, and let gamers have fun. No, you want to ruin the fun of games, and for gamers.
"We're your friend!" Psh. You? My friend? Okay, explain how I can't play PSN games online anymore? Why I can't sit for a second with games like Modern Warfare, or...
Yeah, and they have Anonymous and GeoHotz to blame for this. I wish devs banded together to slap the wrist of GeoHotz in the first place.
Yeah, really, its actually fueling the Anonymous' craving for attention. Anonymous is just a little fly in the world. They're contributing NOTHING to society, just trying to be a little pest.
The dev is NOT an idiot. IT IS true; the hackers have caused nothing but trouble for sony, and Anonymous isn't helping matters, they're just making things worse. I really wish kids like you would get it through your skulls.
LOL.
I love this, its cute. I know I'm a guy, but its cute. Very charming.
I looked throught this article and thought "Are ...you guys stupid?" It does NOT matter whether you bought your system from Sony Japan, or SCEA. They are one and the same company. I do not care if you bought it from Japan or if your system says "Sony Japan." If you hacked the system in U.S. you are STILL liable for suits like this. You're in another one of Sony's turfs.
And this whole "I didn't know SCEA exists!" C'mon. It's n...
Hackers like this are making excuses to make Sony look like the bad guys.
Get over yourselves, little hacker kids.
This "opinion" of a hacker [I.E. GeoHotz] just lost the hacker himself any credibility left. Loser.
And finally, GeoHotz get this through your head: Sony Japan is the parent company of SCEA. This means Sony Japan and SCEA is one and the same company. If SCEA sees a problem, it HAS to act on it. So, lease, STFU. Seriousl...
This is exactly what I said long time ago:

So, basically, this article took words out of my mouth.
I guess we should start calling Electronic Arts: EANazi.
Indeed, a bunch of hackers.
I also feel they're very confused about their goals.
I was offended when they said "We're your friend."
Anonymous you're not our friend, you certainly are not MY friend. You ruined my console.
We never asked for your help.
