Sony will be able to recover the IP addresses of American Internet users had logged since January 2009 on the site Hortz George Hacker, aka GeoHot. The U.S. subsidiary of electronics giant was granted on 1 March by a federal judge in San Francisco many rights in the legal conflict between the hacker, who managed to find the key for rotating n ' any program on the PlayStation 3, including pirated video games, a scourge against which the console has so far been spared.
In early January, the legal battle between the two parties had been interrupted by a question of law: the case should it be educated in California, which is located Sony Computer Entertainment America, or New Jersey, where George resides Hortz already behind the hacking of the iPhone? Sony hoping that the trial be conducted in California, he needs evidence towards this purpose.
This is what allows the court decision of March 1, published by Wired: Sony will thus show IP addresses to support that many Internet users in California have been in contact with George Hortz or have downloaded the tools provided by it to modify their console. YouTube, Twitter and BLOGGER ALSO REFERRED In detail, the U.S.
court allows Sony to ask Bluehost, the host site GeoHot, the list of Internet users visiting online or from downloading files on the site, including a program for PlayStation 3 created by the hacker. The latter does not run pirated games, but install content of their choice on the console, such as emulators, which was hitherto impossible.
George Hortz that accompanied this program a video explanation published privately (that is to say it can not be viewed only if we have the direct URL of the video, found via traditional research) on YouTube, it must provide the court a list of users having watched. Also, Twitter is compelled by the judge to disclose the full list of tweets George Hortz to know if he communicated with people living in California about the hacking of the PlayStation 3, like Blogger, which hosts a Blog of the hacker must enter the IP addresses of Internet piracy have discussed in the comments.
