The Sony DRM rootkit scandal was a BIG booboo but not as big as the removal of the 'OtherOS'. Sony bragged about this during it's PS3 release only to snatch it away from the warm blooded hands who brought the company it's success. They bought Microsoft with PS2. PS3 seemed to be a bit more challenging. Y take away one of the key principles many loved about Sony? PS products are really durable and reliable. They compliment the open-source community. Microsoft seems to long had problems with the modders (Y, b/c it's like CR[Apple] made a game system. LOCK IT DOWN CHARLIE BROWN!). Playstation... shame on you. Listen to the people. Secure your internets. Remember why the ppl fell in love with you. Continue to push quality game consoles.

Touche. Touche.

My AP is a cybernetic Ai unit from the year 9595. It's stock with a prototype naval mini-nuclear reactor as a power source (helps to heat the house & deform neighbor pets). It identifies known users through haptic response via minuscule variations in key strokes. If ID verification fails more than 5 times within 3 minutes a massive charge is sent thereby destroying the unit seeking access and throwing the user into cardiac arrest.. it's SSID is broadcasted as SkyNet.

It's so funny that Sony picks a fight that Apple has lost. Throws money at the problem and hopes for the best. 1st - This is 2011. Google/Slashdot helps to get the real news out on big spending idiots who think they can push around the little guy 2nd - Apple seems to be doing just fine. I can empty a clip into a legally purchased iPhone 6 with iOS 14 and Steve Jobs could only say, "Thanks for the business :( " If I buy your *precious* PS3 it's MINE. Not yours Duh! 3rd - Sony rootkit anyone. This company makes great equipment but need a lot of work with handling customer affairs. Stop attacking ppl BIG COMPANIES. Our generation will screw in the end. - dbnr
