Hi there,
I’m an honest guy and i would like you to kindly stop hacking the PS3 version of MW2. I would really like to play normally but it seems that I can’t find a normal lobby. If you don’t want to stop could you please tell me why you are doing this?
Thanking you in advance,

Hi [private],
I get a lot of hate mail recently from people who have no idea about who I am and what I do. Thank you for being polite and respectful. For this reason, you are the first one to whom I will reply.
I do not hack MW2, I don’t have MW2, I never bought it and never tried it. I hate FPS shooters, the only ones I ever played were Resistance 2 and Killzone 2, and I never played those in multiplayer, only single player campaigns.
I am not responsible for whoever is hacking your MW2 servers, the real people to yell at are those 10 years olds in their basement thinking they’re all great for doing stuff like that.
They should be reported and their account banned, but that is beyond my control.
What I do however is completely different, I defend you, I defend you from Sony’s unacceptable behavior. Imagine if for some reason, Microsoft or Apple (Windows or Mac OSX) were acting like Sony, and that you couldn’t access anything on your computer without their authorization? You want to install Skype, you can’t because Microsoft didn’t “approve” it.. because they want you to use MSN Messenger instead… Then where is your freedom on your own machine ?
Also, what about the fact that they removed Linux support. Sony removed an advertised feature! I bought my PS3 *because* it had linux support, then they removed it. Maybe you didn’t use it, maybe very few people used that feature, but that is beyond the point. Just recently, Norway came to the conclusion that what Sony did was unlawful and there are countless lawsuits against what they did. And this sets a precedent.
Imagine if tomorrow Sony says “in the next firmware update, we will remove from the PS3 support of playing Bluray movies and DVDs”.. you bought the PS3 for that, you use that feature (or maybe you don’t, the issue is that someone else does), and they can just remove an advertised feature? It’s illegal, but why can they do it even if it’s illegal? For one simple reason, they have total control over the machine. They could very well do it, then say “pay a 100$ subscription per year to enable that feature”. The machine *can* do it, it did before, but they block it on purpose because they don’t care about their customers.
Recently George Hotz got sued by Sony because he accessed *HIS* PS3 system that he bought. He owns it, if he wants to put it in a blender or throw it out the window, it’s his right, but Sony sues him for “hacking into a protected computer owned by Sony”.. so for them, that PS3 that you own and that you bought with your hard-earned money is NOT YOURS, it’s still theirs, it’s like you rented it (but you didn’t). If you try to access your own computer, they could sue you, just as if you tried to hack into your bank’s server somewhere.. and that isn’t right.
Sony tries to make it seem like they own your PS3 and they own the PS3 that is in everyone’s houses across the world, and that simply isn’t right and it should be made illegal for them to act that way.
Long story short, this is what I do, I let people gain access to the hardware they own, what I do is 100% legal in my country (Canada), and it is equivalent to the recent DMCA Exemption for jailbreaking phones. Now, if someone uses that to do nasty things, you have two people to blame :
1 – the stupid kid who did it
2 – the developers of MW2 that didn’t write their program correctly.
There are many FPS shooters on the PC, and people can install what they want on their PC, that doesn’t make it impossible to play an FPS game on a PC, simply because the developers write their code correctly to prevents the cheaters from cheating.
Anyways, I hope that my explanation makes everything clearer to you, and that you will not judge me for what I do, because I am not a cheater, I am a freedom fighter.
Thank you,

well, geohot didnt "accept" it either apparently, and he was issued a TRO. not a final verdict though, but things dont seem to be going his way. regardless..buying a ps3 and tinkering inside it, and releasing the code from it, isnt legal. everyone with cfw, got it initially from geohot..which is against the law. think about it in a different perspective: buy a gun off the street, the guy who sold it is guilty by association for selling a firearm like that. another: getting sold a car that runs for less than a month, then has a total malfunction, the car is in ur name, and the previous owner has no affiliation to the car anymore, however..with lemon laws..the new owner can sue and get money back, or repairs.
of course, digital stuff of the geohot court case is much more profound, but the same concept applies from above.
ps3 file managers, ftp, signed games...all these wouldnt be possible if geohot didnt initially release the cfw.

I see his point and agree with it... But there is one major problem... Al three of the major companies, That being, Sony Microsoft and Nintendo, all worded there ToS to basically say you do not fully own the console and that basically it is a lifetime lease from them....
So The way it is worded means that they can do whatever they like sadly... Kinda like How Microsoft gets away with banning Jtags and such...

Uhg..../facepalm I understand where he is coming from, but Come On, the point he trys to make is obvious.
Ppl need to stop with this "I bought my ps3 (or COD), I can do what I want with it!".
Well No you can't, Its 99% illegal, ok so you Did buy a game(£40) or a PS3(£200+) but thats like pocket money to Sony or Activision ect.
So now the product is yours you say.....
This however does NOT mean you own the any of the online servers made by these companys!
Sombody hacking into lets say ,for example, Black ops through jailbreak.
Thats like you hacking into the White house And the Pentagon at the same time lol.:420:
And I say 99% because, had ppl not hacked MAXIMUM xp/cp in BO so soon, the mass banning wouldn't have been as bad as 50,000 consoles.:banhamma: (where ever that number came from)
That 1% could have been anyone that DID hack, had they not made it so freakin obvious.
kindda like robbing a bank with a teddy bear costume, sure no one knows whos under the outfit, but its a little obvious who to chase lol:420:
