Title: PS3 hacking wars begins
Post by: DDay on April 07, 2010, 11:37:34 pm

As most of you know there was a hacker on the internet that claimed he found a way to hack a PS3 and you might know him as Geohot and in response to this claim sony removed the other OS system option out the old PS3's with an update to try to cover up any security holes but in response Geohot is seem to be pushing back.

I heard theirs going to be another update today. This seems to be getting heated and we're getting dragged with it.

so what is your take on this. I think it was wrong for sony to remove the Other OS option. Looks like when he releases the fix I might just get it.... after seeing if anyone gets banned first.

I was wondering why Other OS was suddenly removed. Interesting read despite my lack of understand of half the technical terms used on his blog. Will people who previously installed another OS run into problems?

Oh yeh, it was stated that he could hack the PS3 by installing Linux on it.
