The following is my message

"Why would you sue geohot when he made this possible?

It's a beautiful program, and would've been nice to be able to show off your console at E3 with this on it. Way to underestimate the homebrew community and equate them with pirates, thieves and criminals, it's too bad you couldn't support homebrew in the first place, piracy would've been less likely to be an issue then it is now, not to mention geohot didn't enable LV2 syscalls that allowed piracy, seems like I know more about the PS3 than your lawyers! You guys should hit me up on the e-mail and hire me."

I wonder if they'll try charging me with extortion like they tried with him.

This information is being posted for the purpose of a genuine instructive discussion, sorry if it's wrong section, i figured it would go in the hacks section as it's homebrew related

You guys realize that many of $ony's Devs have the private keys? You know how great it would be to get someone from the scene in there?
