PS3 PS Jailbreak Deemed Illegal By Australian Court

[x3sphere]

Judgment day has arrived for the PS Jailbreak, a USB dongle pre-loaded with exploit code that allows users to run unsigned code and copied Blu-ray disc games.

The Federal Court of Australia today issued a permanent injunction against the device, ruling that it cannot be sold or imported into the country until further notice. This comes following yesterday's emergence of a free open-source alternative to the hack dubbed PSGroove. Suppliers or respondents named in the judicial order are prohibited from distributing the device, as outlined by five bullet points in an order filed by Justice Dodds-Streeton today:[...]

A predicatable outcome.

Unfortunately that won't happen in the rest of the world... It's only been a few days and I'm already sick of hearing about people wanting to run ISOs on their PS3s =\ It's like the PSP Scene all over again

let's face reality, people just want their consoles hacked for free games. that's it. That's why they give a cr@p

People being able to run ISOs on their PSP is why there aren't many blockbuster hits for it.
Homebrew is one thing, but ISO loaders are another. I'd hate to see the PS3's library start to look like the PSP's.

Exactly. Homebrew, lmao.

Exactly. Homebrew, lmao.

I'm just wondering... Everyone's going "it's payback time for Sony"

payback for what exactly?

Fucked if i know. I don't get it. I just hope there never is "backup" loading support. We can do without it.

 

[lastoneleft_00]

Isn't there backup support now, i thought they figured out you can enable it by changing some some simple code. So I think your hopes are now crushed.

 

[ultimakillz]

Exactly. Homebrew, lmao.

fingers crossed for ps2 emulation. thats all i ask

 

[january39]

PS2 emulation. Now that would be worth it

 

[KezraPlanes]

Agreed.

 

[El Diablo]

Personally, I want to be able to run ISOs, but my own backups, or maybe a back up I made of a friends game, but I care more about the homebrew I hope will come from this.

 

[BlackSheep]

I hate taking out and putting in my games in my ps3!
(kidding )

'Payback' is probably just an arrogant response by butthurt kids who lost OtherOs, although they would never have used it anyway.

 

[january39]

I have never had the other OS feature - and i don't care that much either. I am gutted the MS support was removed, i have loads of PSP memory cards.

 

[rileysnotz]

Yeah ps2 emulation would be worth it. now if only I can remember where i kept my collection of ps2 games...

I'd love to see some good apps for the ps3 though. maybe some cool xmb mods, BT file transfers and such.
