At the weekend I told you that geohot a open a new blog where he asks for donations to pay his lawyers who represent him in court in the fight against the Sony company. Only 3 days have passed and geohot has closed this donation session, a sign that it has already collected a significant amount of money with which it intends to hire some new lawyers. Sony sued geohot for developing a jailbreak solution for the PlayStation 3, a solution that, according to Sony, gives users the opportunity to hack games. So far, Sony has won in court the right to analyze geohot's computer equipment with which it developed the jailbreak solution, but the process continues.
I will keep you updated on how the lawsuit filed against geohot and the members of the failoverfl0w team is going.
Thank you so much for all of your help, things are looking up money wise.
Expect to see a few more lawyers on my responses!
I have enough to cover my legal fees for the time being.
And in the absolute worst case scenario, we don't want Sony getting it 😛For now, the best thing you can do is spread the word
Let people know how Sony treats customers
Let people know Sony would rather sue than be proactive and try to fix the problem
Let people know about laws like the DMCA which stifle innovation, and don't do anything to fix the problems they were created to solveI will keep this blog updated as the case develops.
