Did I mention theft of code in my reply? I don't believe I did.. Project much? What I was talking about was the running of hackers code. What's being threatened now (besides piracy which I never even touched on), is the OTHER services that those of us who are using the platform for its intended purpose are being screwwed over for. The Trophies system is under attack now thanks to all that user-made code that you're defending. What's next, the rest of the PSN?JDKJ said:Talk about assuming the rest of us have no understanding of the situation. I was told in this very thread that, "if you paid attention, what they did is hack the hardware to allow their software to run. They didn't hack Sony code, they didn't steal anything. They broke a hardware lock on the software (in the form of an encryption chip). I don't think you understand what they did, you just hear "broke the protection" as if they are spoofing some software monitor like Punkbuster." As if I don't have the reading comprehension skills of a fifth-grader. Or the common sense of a cinder block. Is it possible to be any more insulting of my intelligence? I don't think so.
When all this kind of crap happens, who gets CONSTANTLY SCREWWED in the end? The users who actually remain legitimate. The PSP platform is a glowwing example. Not only did we get screwwed out of advanced PSN features, but we also got a highly enemic line of software support because most developers figured there was no money to be made on the platform. Regardless of most people's views on the PSP platform, it's hard to argue against the idea that the software lineup would have been better had the hacking not taken place.
