The current Sony vs. George (Geohot) Hotz saga is really turning into a soap-opera, and now according to PSX-Scene, it shows no sign of letting up. The latest drama revolves around computer hard drives a judge made Hotz hand over to investigators - it now appears the company charged with handling the data want to take clone images of both seized drives.
The battle between Sony and 21 years old Geohot who has shook the mega corporation has been around for a while now and it's taking new interesting routes everyday. The battle has recently become a legal one since Sony has publicly announced filing a lawsuit against the hacker residing at New Jersey.
After discussing the entire situation with his lawyers, Geohot has decided to start a blog yet again. He is asking for help and support from his fans in an effort to fight his case against Sony.
This has to be one of the funniest trolling done by anyone from the jailbreaking community ever. I always thought Geohot is cool, but with this, he just gets better. Unless you have been living under the rock, you must have heard of the lawsuit that sony has filled against Geohot for making PlayStation 3 exploits and jailbreak tools public. No matter what, there's something that Sony always gets back from Geohot, pwnage for life. In a latest effort to publicly pwn Sony, Geohot gives you "The Light It Up Contest".
Things are really starting to hot up in the Sony vs Geohot court case over the hacker's PS3 hacking exploits. Now the Japanese behemoth is requesting that a federal judge orders Google to hand over personal information such as IP address of anyone commenting on a private page on social video site YouTube.
Continuing the jailbreak theme today comes news that jailbreak supremo MuscleNerd has claimed that Geohot might release a new untethered jailbreak in the coming weeks.
Impressed with how Microsoft dealt with the Chevron WP7 (Windows Phone 7 jailbreak/unlock) team, Geohot updated his site today with a small message that read: “perhaps a more appropriate way to deal with jailbreakers I'm going out to buy a Windows 7 phone”.
Geohot appeared live on AOTS (Attack of the Show) today where he talked about the lawsuit which Sony recently filed against him for jailbreaking the PS3.
After releasing PS3 root keys publicly this week, followed by a video showing homebrew running on firmware 3.55, Geohot has now released jailbreak for PlayStation 3 firmware 3.55.
Not so long ago, we reported about Rubyra1n which could be Geohot’s next jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1. And now, MuscleNerd’s tweet which was posted a few days ago seems to support this claim. MuscleNerd tweeted
