freeplay tried every possible url variations until he found something.
This is an outright lie.
Basically Freeplay stole the exploit.
'Stealing' this exploit would've been hacking into Fanjita's server, planting an authentication file for my PC in it, then bruteforcing paths on the SVN server until I got something.
What happened was that I was given access to the server and I looked at what was there.
You can see him here:

admiting to this very fact.
No, what you see there is me saying what the truth actually is.
As I stated in mformature, the amount of work he provided to get it work is 0. Since the exploit was all ready to use and sources were provided in the prometheus svn content he stole.
Right, I definitely didn't do any work on what was released (and what wasn't). No, I hired a small Indonesian child to do it for me.
Either way the developers' community has been warned and have removed him from whatever trusting list he might have been.
Oh, no. Forgive me, O Grand Pubah of the PSP scene.
You don't trust anybody. You keep all your best information in a nice little circle of 'elites' and hold that over people because it gives you a sense of power and importance.
Freeplay it seems was all about get fame from using work that is not his and this I cannot forgive. Hence I am informing the world of his evil deeds.
You're not
at all about fame? And
evil? Are you for real? Where's your sense of perspective?
I would also like to add that releasing this exploit was pointless and as we have foretold, Sony removed the game from the playstation store less than one hour after it was announced, preventing anyone to purchase the game on the psp go (even if it was already patched in the 6.20 firmware)
Another outright lie, unless he's simply unaware that it's listed under 'A' for "Archer Maclean's Mercury".
As its always been said, crime does not pay, and stealing sources as well as using the theft for your own profit is a crime whether you like it, or not.
You have an odd definition of 'profit'. And of 'stealing'.
P.S. The ifhandle kernel exploit provided in the supplied sources has been fixed since firmware 6.00 so there is no harm in supplying it along with the sources that were initially using it.
....................................................
The mercury exploit was fixed in firmware 6.20. THAT is the ONLY reason I released it. Are you really going to be that hypocritical?
Well according to fanjita, he has logs of Freeplay trying tons of different urls in order to get access to different svn ressources
Again, this is a lie. When we were working on the Gripshift exploit, he set up an SVN repository on his server, and gave me a path to the SVN browser on the web. There was no "trying tons of different urls". It was in plain sight, right there when I opened the link he sent me.
either way it was pretty obvious to anyone that this portion of the svn should have been off limits and not free to be grabbed. Fanjita screwed up with the svn permissions, it does not make it more right to grab the prometheus svn content
Really? How should it have been obvious? He gave me access to a restricted SVN and didn't say
anything about not accessing what was on it. Not a word. I assumed that he
wanted to give me access to those things. You don't give someone a key to your house if you don't want them to be able to see what's in plain view inside.
It is even less right to use its content even to make a lame youtube video in the first place and make it look like your own work. This is precisely what Freeplay did.
No. It isn't what I did at all. I said from the beginning that it wasn't my exploit.
You miss the point, he should not even have used it, or have it in the first place since it was stolen, let alone make a vid to get more fame out of it
No. Say this as often as you like, but it's not nearly an accurate description of reality.
I'm beginning to think that you're unaware of what 'stolen' means.
I already contacted a friend work in the past for SCE (but fireup, don't ask me why)
this information is real, this is why i told Freeplay sell itself...
Apparently is not the first time from this guy...
For the PS3 too, about the BD-J exploit...
You need to shut your fucking mouth. Your "friend" is clearly you, and by "work in the past for SCE" you mean that you're pulling shit out of your ass.
Had this exploit not been patched, I would not have released anything. Ever. But since it
was patched, there wasn't any
point in keeping it private anymore.
