This Got Me Pretty Scared And i Started Looking On Google And Found Many Post's Regarding This News And Apparently They Ban You From Even Using Your PS3 XMB Which Is Logically Done Directly From Sony Using The Rootkit That Was Downloaded Through The 3.56 Update They Just Have To Activate It Through The PSN.

But After Thinking This Through I Thought How Can They Do This On 3.55? or Even Better If You Have CFW And Deleted Your Boot History File Which Is What i Did. They Disable Our PS3 Starting From The HDD So in My Opinion They Cant Just Disable Our PS3's Without Accessing Our Boot File Via The Rootkit Meaning I Think They Just Cant Disable Our PS3 XMB if Were On 3.55 or CFW.

The Rootkit Allows Sony To Look At Everything So It Involves Direct HDD Access.

i Am On 3.55 Kmeaw Using A Bypass To Stay Online :]

Correct Me if My Opinion is Wrong This Is Just What i Think.


It has nothing to do with boot history. They can still detect if someone has modded Black Ops.

So in short: 15th Prestige Mod Black Ops = Ban

Although I am willing to bet that it's not true.

I still believe some people will get banned and some won't... i think it will depend on who was reported and who wasn't most likely if the rootkit is real then they would probably simply check patches to make sure they are legit and if that happens they are screwed and will be sued till they don't know what to do.
