According to this source, a hacking group called lulzsec, hacked into sony's servers and 'borrowed' information.

Quote:The source code leaked by the group could give users access to Sony’s developer network. A PlayStation 3 (PS3) jailbreak giving access to the network months back led to mass piracy of PS3 games.

Access to the source code would allow hackers to be able to reverse-engineer the network and spawn new sites similar to Sony's, as well as perhaps "fudge" the software to create new versions of it. In addition, the fact that hackers have been able to access the source code for Sony's internal servers indicates that they may also be able to change the source code on Sony's servers, thus changing how the official developer network operates.

They would also be able use the source code to find and perhaps even create more security holes in the system and exploit them, wreaking further havoc on Sony’s already battered network security team.

this website claimed that a member of lulzsec has been arrested but lulzsec's twitter says that they are all still here and together.
The source code and more information can be found at http://lulzsecurity.com/

What does this actually mean? o.O
The source code has been out and still is out. Will this allow for users to jailbreak and continue to jailbreak the system software? even the latest ps3 3.65 firmware?
Also, if wee can sign things for psp, wee can sign things for ps3 right?
why is there such a smaller amount of homebrew circulating the ps3 then if this is the case?

I didn't care about ps3 homebrew 3 years ago, still don't care. Would be nice if sony just made a homebrew channel you could submit apps to. And once they are approved you could dl for free or at the price of the developer.

@Way Too High
yea. that'd be sick. but if its free sony makes no profit...
so they will charge. and when they charge for it, no one will want it. especially if the quality is no good.
