"YouTube ordered to give up users' data to Sony in Geohot PS3 hack case
A judge in California has ordered YouTube, Twitter and other firms to hand over details about their users to Sony in the George 'Geohot' Hotz PlayStation 3 hacking lawsuit."

"Sony had demanded that YouTube, Twitter, Google's Blogspot and web hosting firm Bluehost all hand over data about PS3 jailbreak hacker Hotz and people who may have viewed his work.
Sony are suing Hotz, among others, over the cracking of codes that stopped users modifying their PS3s - as part of which they subpoenaed the web giants to force them to reveal user data.
And now Wired magazine has discovered that a judge in California has ordered the firms to turn over details of their users - with Bluehost ordered to reveal the IP addresses of users who visited Hotz's website from January 2009 until now.
YouTube, meanwhile, has been ordered to reveal the usernames and IP addresses of users who commented on Hotz's video of the jailbreak, Blogspot to reveal details of commenters on his blog, and Twitter to reveal details about Hotz's own tweets.
The reason Sony gave for wanting the data was so they could demonstrate that the jailbreak had been widely seen in the state of California (even though it took place in New Jersey) as part of a battle over which state's courts should hear the case."
