Sony put yesterday in a court restraining order against known hacker George Hotz, aka "Geohot" with other hackers.This group of people was responsible for the excess of the security system they use this in the PS3 firmware version 3.55.
The jailbreak allows PS3 users to use their own software on your Playstation. The restraining order from Sony aims to prevent the jailbreak be released and distributed via the Internet. According to Sony's claim this way of circumventing the protection violates the Copyright and direct concern to Sony that illegal copies of games to be played on the Playstation.
Sony wants to prevent the distribution of the jailbreak or any mention of it is removed from the internet and also want George Hotz reject any request for help that you do to circumvent the security system.
Hotz has already reacted to the court order and on your website can be found only links to file complaints with the Sony.
The battle began in March when Sony took the opportunity to install any other operating system on the console. The system was preferred by users and Linux after seeing them this chance to be withdrawn many were displeased. By Sony, the answer was that the goal is to make the console more secure. The jailbreak came again allow the installation of other systems.
And in recent times has been so war. Sony launches a new version with a security update and hackers with more or less trouble there will bypass the system and getting back to Sony launches an update.
