Sony is threatening to sue anybody posting or 'distributing' the first full-fledged jailbreak code (http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2011/02/sony-lawsuit-factory/) for the 4-year-old PlayStation 3 gaming console. What's more, the company is demanding that a federal judge order Google to surrender the IP addresses and other identifying information (http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/threatlevel/2011/02/googlehotz.pdf) (PDF) of those who have viewed or commented about the jailbreak video on a private YouTube page. The game maker is also demanding that Twitter provide the identities of a host of hackers who first unveiled a limited version of the hack in December.http://games.slashdot.org/story/11/02/08/0433217/Sony-Lawyers-Expand-Dragnet-Targeting-Anybody-Posting-PS3-Hack
