It’s apparent you don’t care about your reputation with consumers, and I can almost understand your point there.
Few people consider buying a TV or laptop a moral choice, and the consumer base is quite large.
But talented developers are in much shorter supply, and take it from one personally, who you choose to code for is much more of a moral choice.
The programmers you will one day be looking to hire are the ones reading the tech news sites right now.
And they will remember.

I think that this is a nice clear message and actually has relevance to the evolution to come on the PlayStation 3. The people writing articles and reading this right now may be developing for Sony in future, as George said. The message here basically implies that Sony should care or at least do more for consumers – Which I agree on also. I just wish Sony would be embrace these developers and admire their work. Oh well - We'll find out more about Sony, geohot and fail0verflow's case soon enough soon enough.
Geohot is doing a talk at the Stevens Institute of Technology, but had to remove the PS3 portions, thanks to the temporary restraining order.
We’ll keep you posted.

Yes, if haven't noticed he has a couple threads on the front page of the exploits and hacks section. The only reason people post threads on NGU is really just to obtain more reputation. In this case, he is posting waaay old news.
And in case you directed your post towards me, you can't get massive rep from a single post. At least not like what I did.

Huh? I was just making a joke, of course I know what rep farming is, and I'm not accusing anyone of it
