Sony is now issuing Perma-Bans to PSN hackers

4.7
Sony is warning its Playstation 3 Users that anyone caught using the recently released modified software on their Playstation 3 units could face being Perma-Banned

Sony has issued a consumer alert to its PSN users informing them that “Unauthorised software for the Playstation 3 system was recently released by hackers” and that “Use of such software violates the terms of the ‘System Software License Agreement for the Playstation 3 System’ and the ‘Terms of Services and User Agreement’”

“To avoid permanent termination, consumers must immediately cease using and delete all unauthorised or pirated software from their Playstation 3 systems”

It seems unclear from this statement whether these Perma-Bans will be blocking users from connecting to the Playstation Network or if Sony will be console banning the offending Playstation’s.

TheUnknownModderHD Thats crap!

1. Millions of PSN Users do it it will take days to pin point the hackers and ban em

2. Why do it now? they could have done it a while ago.

3. i think its just a way for Sony to scare newbie psn hackers to thinking 'im gunna get banned, im not going to hack'.

And the idea for having to pay for PSN is ****. It will just anger hackers and make normal psn users suffer.

my Message to Sony 'SONY THERE IS NO POINT! IT WILL MAKE MORE HACKERS ANGRY. I KNOW I WAS A PSN HACKER, I ONLY STOPPED TO USE MY PROGRAMMING FOR BETTER PURPOSE. IT WILL ALSO TAKE DAYS TO TARGET THE MAIN HACKERS LIKE JAIL BREAKERS AND BAN THEM. ONCE AGAIN NO POINT DOING IT...'

Done.


Can you blame them for wanting to scare new hackers? Turn off your caps lock you tool.

Wonder if this would affect people getting in infected lobbies in CoD 4, WaW, and MW2 like on Xbox Live. (No Jailbreak)

Or they will implement a system like Microsoft has and as soon as the system detects the unauthorized software you are immediately banned. You sound like you think hackers run psn. When they don't.

I'm glad to see psn finally getting cleaned up, maybe it's worth getting back on psn instead of having a 300$ blu-ray player getting used once a month.

RockstarGames They may add that you have to pay for PSN so people dont keep creating new accounts after banned


Good, they should. That's all people will do if they are faced with a perma-ban.

They need to hop on the console ban train.
