Paypal has item descriptions and stores information very nicely. It won't just say "Payment received, # 85764846748967454 for $250.00"Maxman3002 said:Can they make that assumpsion though? Just because he did something related to their console and at the same time as recieved money from people doesnt make it that he has made money off their product does it? Just because 2 things happen at the same time doesnt mean they are related.Magenera said:This guy just lost the case then. I mean now sony is going to treat it like any money he received was for the hacking of the console. Which means any money he gotten since the PS3 came out is likely to be called in as payment for the service.
Sony beaten this guy right off the bat.
It doesnt work in medicine and id like to think its not how the legal system works
Besides, ive never visited his site, but from what I understand hes never charged for anything has he? If im wrong then fine, sony has a good case here. But if anything hes ever done has been released free of charge then how does his paypal accounts prove anything?
The only thing I thought sony were proving is the number of people who have hacked and stolen games through the hack, in which case, shouldnt they be getting torrent site records for those that have downloaded pirate PS3 games?
I genuinly dont understand this legal case due to being English and having no legal experiance
It will say who bought it, the item description Hotz set on the item/service, the amount, etc. If all the items are "PS3 - Hacking" or "PS3 - Donation" or "Donation" or "Play station" or any thing sketchy, then yeah, he can be considered to have gotten those funds for that, but if it's "1967 Cadillac Eldorado Engine" then I don't think they can
