PlayStation 3 Hackers Warn Against Illegitimate Clones

The article is definitely bias, since that is not the meaning of the original quote.

The point was that other people were selling similar devices with the pretext of being PS3 jailbreakers, but were not. Despite the fact that the device uses the USB port and looks like a USB drive, it is not an actual drive. The pirated version is a USB drive with a virus to infect the PC when plugged.

I get the irony of the article, if it actually was like stated, but it is not, and you people should do some research before jumping to witty conclusions.

I hope you realize that the Escapist is extremely biased against against hackers and pirates.
They won't listen to you.

Sorry, I thought the section was called "The News Room", not the "Editorial and Rant Room"...

Even when some people might choose not to listen, the fact that some people are selling infected USB as jailbreak devices is something worth listen.
