Mr Big

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Im am very excited about CFW release but im very worried about one thing.

About 9 hours ago i was browsing on PSU fourms and i came across by the person was comment saying he already stored CFW on his PS3 and able go online with CFW....to Play MOH game for an hour. 5 hours later He turn his PS3 on again to play more but his PSN account got banned just liked that. (i don't know he telling true or not)
Other guy reply to him and said he believes that the Database was tracking it and that caused his account to banned.


I was shitting myself because i have heard the word of "Database" before and i found this link thread again from 2 weeks ago, of course i was there when i replyed it.

You must login or register to view this content.
This link here was originally disscusing about Trophy exploit but it was more into discussing about Database by Mcstyle24.

Just read it all until you get to page 2 when mc telling what database can do to your PS3.
Mc was ex-employee from Sony in past and i don't have premission from Mc because he wasn't signed in for a week.

So it's up to you guys if you planning installing CFW
Right now i really don't know if i should use CFW yet because of Database.:confused:

How many hours you played Offline
How many hours you played Online
How many times you log on and log off (Date,Time and Year)
How many you sent message and revice message

All your message you send is saved to Sony server also same as your friend message saved too (incase of racist or insulting, which can be report)

How many PSN friends you got
How many PSN friends you delete
How many PSN friends you put in block list
How many Retail game you played on your PS3
How many PSN game you played
Blu-ray film and DVD also included
Trophy Information
Device USB information (Normal USB and Jailbreak Dongle)

and many more. Database collects everything what you been doing your PS3. Don't FORGET !!! Sony can use database for banhammer soon or later.

Quite alot people got their PSN account banned for gamesharing from Friends, If you played PSN game you don't owned and it show up on database and the same time its show no record of you buying that PSN on Playstation Stores. This is how Sony knows.

Sony can tell if you insert Jailbreak Dongle in PS3 (Device USB information) Also they can tell if you played Backed up on PS3 gamed on Harddrive same Trophy hacked application or Homebrew, Anything you activate will trigger to register to Database)

Nobody won't get banned from using jailbreak if only they used PS3 that's never goes online. Only if they accidentally connect internet while they still offline on the PS3 which automatically upload Database file to Sony server, if that happen Jailbreak owners will likely ****ed if banhmmer comes soon or later.

Beside that they won't able to access to PSN due to newer firmware, So you got nothing to worry about buddy."-mcstyle24. so who installed the cfw will be banned in a ban hammer thay may come?


Thanks for trying to help, but can you please speak in English? What I mean is fix up your grammar. I apologize if English is your second language.

Any who, any more reports on this?

I think Sony have bigger problems than tryin to ban ppl .. and if lets say , 1000+ppl have used Cfm - Will they actually ban EVERY person who used it .

Its not like they can Stop Cfm lol .

That's not going to help you if they ban your console though.

Honestly for the time being I'm going to say he's full of it... Sony can't tell your using custom firmware because the custom firmware is signed by sonys code, it's not over 3.55, and the version.txt still says 3.55. This mean all data that your PS3 is sending to sony is the official ligitamit 3.55 firmware files. The only way you can possibly be banned now is by running apps, games, homebrew that are not in stealth mode because sony does receive the list of games you have been playing every time you log on. There's ways around that too though such as deleting your game list or you account info...
