That's why I don't think it's good to release/announce something WIP.
Or... let them be the bait for us to see how far can Sony go
In any case the guys are french. How would that work out? Would them be sued by Sony France? Under french/european law? And in that case, what laws would apply? Would Sony france/Europe have any legal backup in the european laws?
Complicated. But I think Sony should know it can't stop them or anyone.
Taking a company to court (like Bleem and CrimsonFire, GBA incident, GambitStudios, GBC incident) is something. There's bigger stuff involved.
Trying to get a french individual to court over coding something FREE? First, they would send a C&D letter to him. So what? He releases the code and someone else picks up. He could even continue developing it and release anonymously.
It's the difference between hunting dinosaurs in an open field or ants in a box full of sand.
