George Hotz today announced yet another addition to his company’s hardware portfolio called EON – an open-source aftermarket ensemble that combines a dashcam with navigation and music, and can tie into other solutions on offer by Comma.ai.

You may remember that towards the back-end of last year we brought you the rather obscure news that famed iPhone hacker George Hotz (also known as Geohot) was getting involved in the autonomous vehicle space. After stepping away from jailbreaking iPhones and finding exploitable vulnerabilities in Sony’s PlayStation 3, and taking numerous other jobs and internships at big companies, Hotz has set up a company called Comma, with the intention of attempting to pioneer artificially intelligent self-driving vehicles. It was generally classed as a laughable notion that Geohot would go up against the likes of Google and Tesla Motors in attempting to build an intelligent autonomous car, but new reports are suggesting that Hotz has secured investor funding for his new passion.

George Hotz aka Geohot who pioneered the iPhone jailbreak scene back in 2007 has now built a self-driving car of his own in his Garage.

Today, two well-known members of the jailbreak community won awards for very different kind of work. Comex, the developer of the well-known JailbreakMe 3.0, has earned an Pwnie Award for discovering such an exploitable vulnerability. George Hotz, the man who first unlocked the original iPhone back in 2007, won a very different kind of prize: read on!

George Hotz, who was famous for unlocking the very first iPhone back in 2007, and remained active within the iOS hacking community ever since, was spotted at iOSDevCamp on Saturday.

At a shareholders meeting, Sony’s CEO Howard Stringer blamed recent attacks on several of the company’s properties on several steps it took to “defend Sony’s intellectual property”, presumably referring to the lawsuit Sony started against George Hotz for releasing a “jailbreaking” tool for the PlayStation 3.

George Hotz, also known as GeoHot, has begun working at Facebook, the company has confirmed. Hotz, known for being the first one to unlock the original iPhone and famous ever since for other iPhone hacks and a PlayStation 3 jailbreak, will now be using his coding expertise to further boost Facebook’s mobile empire.

George Hotz, after months of really just being MIA, has been found to be working for Facebook. Geohot reportedly started working for Facebook last month but the announcement was made on 17th June only to be discovered today.

The Sony vs. Geohot trial rumbles on, after being granted access to Geohot’s hard drives, and the IP addresses of users who have been to his sites, the PlayStation 3 manufacturer has now sought (and received permission) to drag everyone else into the argument by requesting hacker George ‘Geohot’ Hotz’s PayPal records stretching back fully 2 years.

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.

We have just been tipped off about the possible name for the next jailbreak by Geohot, called Rubyra1n. The domain Rubyra1n.com was registered by the iPhone hacker named George Hotz (aka geohot) on 27th March 2010.
