I have zero ability at writing code, but to the ones who do have some knowledge I would ask if anyone has actually tested the 'clues' he gives as being genuine or just pants?
Either way it will end the arguments on whether he is talking garbage or not.

It wasn't about "cloning a usb dongle" that's what x3 and co did, reproduce the traffic sent by the psjailbreak without understanding it, that's not what was done with psgroove, psgroove was about understanding how the exploit works, its fundamentals, and as such documenting it and open sourcing it, that's a lot harder than just "cloning a usb dongle"
You should also know that I've contributed plenty and not just with psgroove, Perhaps you should look it up a bit more and see what I've actually done.
And yes, my "clues" are genuine ? Why wouldn't they be ? What interest would I even have to be spreading a bunch of BS?
You could also ask KaKaRoToKS who confirmed my exploit's existence on twitter more than once (mostly because I told him and a few others how it works) as you can see here: You must login or register to view this content.
or here: You must login or register to view this content.
As I use to say though, you're free to believe what you want, whether you think it's real or fake is up to you, but perhaps you should try those "clues" of mine for yourselves and see if I am true to my words.
As for not releasing, most of you should understand that I am facing possible prosecutions from Sony Computer Entertainment by just sharing keys, tools, or exploits. I do not believe this would be worth the risks, at least not for me, that's my personal decision, please respect it just as I would respect your own.
I do remember when Geohot didn't want to release his 3.21 cfw (the one with Otheros in it, which was really just an update package swap) people started complaining (I am being polite here) at him and whining as they are doing now (with me).
History proved them wrong just as they prove me right when I say that people wont stop to literally demand more and more, this is taxing but I have to live with it, so do other developers that do anything remotely public on the scene, and I do feel sorry both for them and the people who are whining (mostly because those could do more constructive things of their lives).
People should learn that developers chose to release their work out of kindness and not out of obligations, that sceners only get things for free because developers are generous enough to share them, but it's up to the developers and the developers alone to chose what to do with their work, if for whatever reason they chose not to share something, you have to respect that. If you want something done, nothing prevents you from achieving it on your own. The developers have to put hard work and time to achieve their goals.
Finally because of the risks and various other reasons that led me into not sharing actual "end results" I end up doing what I can to help other developers in achieving their goals and eventually share their own work with the community, it's the best I can do and it's not that bad given the circumstances, people should learn to do with what they have, if they have someone willing to help them out (but not sharing the actual solution) they should take what is offered to them and accept this help without complaining while using this help to perform a solution of their own.
As the adage says, Don't bite the hand that feeds you.
Best regards.

'
on't bite the hand that feeds you'. Yeah, considering we're all infants who eat from their mothers hand? You're not God. You're just some jackass who forces everyone into believing you're something you're not. You, sir, are what's commonly known around the world, as a 'Hypocrite'.
