Sony is suing SHOPPSJAILBREAK.com for breaching copyright laws, violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and Trademark Infringement. The hackers are calling this “scare tactics”.

Sony got Australia to perminently ban the Jailbreak and all profits made from selling it are to be given directly to Sony….wow..that was quick and swift. via CVG_UK
Tampering with the PS3 is not and should not be illegal. I bought the thing, so I can mess with it as I like. However, selling devices that facilitate piracy… well, I can see where that would be more treacherous legal ground.

It’s what everyone was waiting for, of course they’ll sue. It’s a closed box system, tampering with it the way they do should be illegal too.
