Lets Not Go Down the Wrong Path - Keep Brickers Out of Homebrew
Yesterdays release of the rather excellent M33 Custom Firmware was overshadowed somewhat by talk later in the day that the release itself would brick PSP Consoles who go to a certain site (not this one).
A little history lesson is needed here, one of the DS Scenes best hackers himself released a bricker some time ago that did indeed brick some consoles, the worldwide anger against the hacker was in my opinion well justified, you dont post releases to destroy others consoles, simple as that. Now he had his reasons but the quickest way to harm homebrew is to release brickers its as simple as that.
Now back to yesterdays release. I personally agree with Team M33 that the site they hate are the worst scum in the scene, they did the same in the PS2 scene too. But under no circumstances do you release anything that could brick consoles just because they visit that site.
Im sure that as a scene of Coders, Webmasters, Staff and Homebrewers we can ignore those sites who do harm to the scene but we dont want to hurt homebrewers like us.
I do hope that Team M33 and others dont take me the wrong way but theres always another way of skinning a cat :)
