perhapes so, but in most of the world modchips can be used, and for completely legal things. if you got temp banned, sucks for you. The mods here know what they are doing and if you dont like it find another forum.

yeah but most of us are here to play homebrew stuff, Emulators and games. Yes game ROMS are technicaly illegall but no one is panicking about them because they are old news, and OLD games, that most of us owned and want to play again. Some game ROMS have been taken down at the request of the authors but most authors are cool with people playing there 10 year+ old games on emulators.

But copying and playing copied PSP games will cause Sony to try extra hard to stop us running "unathorized" code on the PSP.

There is a difference between promoting such things (providing info, links, etc.) and merely discussing them as a topic or situation.

i dont understand this rather silly restriction, nearly all of what we speak of is "illegal"..... like the emulators for the psp are "unauthorized" code, and watching YOUR OWN dvd on your psp is "pirating".... i loathe america, the land of the "free"

well said. this topic should be locked anyways. If you cant obey they rules, then leave. You all seem to so smart that you can decided whats right and whats not, so it should be simple for all of you to perform a task as simple as that.

mod chips are not illegal (in most countries), and that guy got convicted because he was selling moded xboxs with a 200gb HD with 80 games on the HD!

Modchips can be used for homebrew and for playing imports, thats why you are allowed to talk about them.

ROMS are not illegal, there are loads of public domain roms that you can use legally

nearly all of what we speak of is "illegal"..... like the emulators for the psp..

err no, emulators are not illegal, and it would only be illegal if we used the offical dev kit for the psp, so it is legal

99% of people are going to use the UMD loader, to play warez, thats why its banned!
