Sony Ban Homebrew Talk on Their Forums

[nielsss]

uhhhh u said "Im not surprised by this on their own forums but talk about killing off free speach."

Well here were not allowed to talk about piracy and were not allowed to curse...Soooo. Anyway. Why would any1 wanne talk about homebrew on the sony boards?? Sony would then know you prob tried homebrew and they wouldnt rly like you anymore.

This kind of remindes me of a war. The country that's lost usually withdraws and takes action against any traitors, to me it sounds a lot like they're giving up.

very true

lol they probly used the forums 2 easily find out about the newest breakthoughs, but on another note why should they care about homebrew? i mean cmon its like the main reason anyone buys a psp , sure theres the few losers who use psps for piracy, they ruin it for everyone , i support being able 2 play your own LEGALLY backed up games but not downloading them off the net just cuz u can i mean hell u can do alot with the internet, just cuz u can do somthing doesnt mean u should.

I've visited Sony's forums in the past and was surprised to find as much discussion of homebrew as I did.

There's no issue of free speech here...Sony isn't a government. They own the forums, they can set any regulations they want.

Guess we'll all just have to continue to discuss homebrew matters here, heh...

"Homebrew applications void the warranty of the PSP®(PlayStation®Portable) system...."

You think this is bad?

They closed down the EU PSP forums last month.

its quite surprisin on the $ony boards, they actually know a lot of stuff...some1 on max said it's like bank robbers plannin the heist inside the bank haha

but piracy is "a bad thing" so i can understand, but homebrew & hacks are free so wot the hell is up w that?

I can understand about removing anything that has to do with exploits and such. but homebrew talk should still be o.k. PS2 and PS3 have legal homebrew support. Maybe the only thing being banned is psp homebrew chat. I can't say I blame them.

A loss of homebrew enthusiasts at the official Sony boards just means a mass migration to other boards, including this one.

Hopefully, these refugees will learn basic spelling and punctuation during the brief downtime, but I doubt it.
