Sony trova le prove: Geohot ha mentito?
Nuova puntata nella telenovela giuridica tra Sony e Geohot! In quest'ultima news ci arriva notizia che Sony accusa ufficialmente Geohot di aver mentito riguardo il fatto di non aver mai avuto un account sul PSN e di avere per giunta le prove per dimostrarlo, affermando che la sua PS3 ha effettuato l'iscrizione di un account PSN sotto altro nickname, il quale, dopo una ricerca sul web, è risultato effettivamente usato da Geohot ai tempi del jailbreak dei cellulari. In questo modo quindi la giurisdizione del caso dovrebbe infine essere spostata in California, proprio come Sony sta cercando di ottenere da tanto tempo.
Riuscirà Geohot a difendersi anche da quest'ultimo evidente attacco da parte dei legali Sony? Staremo a vedere.
Nell'articolo completo le parole dei legali Sony.

Citazione:
Though the evidence establishing personal jurisdiction is already overwhelming, SCEA has little doubt that there is much more. However, over the last several weeks. Hotz has engaged in a campaign to thwart jurisdictional discovery at every turn –regardless of whether the Court has ordered such discovery or not. Most seriously, after Magistrate Judge Spero ordered an inspection of Hotz’s devices and ordered Hotz to appear at a deposition in California, SCEA learned that Hotz had deliberately removed integral components of his impounded hard drives prior to delivering them to a third party neutral and that Hotz is now in South America, an excuse for why he will not immediately provide the components of his hard drives as requested by the neutral. Hotz’s attempts to dodge this Court’s authority raise very serious questions.
Citazione:
When SCEA echoed TIG’s request that the components of the hard drives be delivered immediately, Hotz’s counsel responded that Hotz was in South America.
Citazione:
On January 12, 2011, Hotz submitted a declaration to the Court (Docket No. 19-1) in which he made unequivocal statements on a number of topics. However, when it came to discussing the PSN account, Hotz equivocated, stating: “To the best of my knowledge and belief, I do not have a PlayStation Network account.” Hotz also provided interrogatory responses that he has refused to verify, stating that he has not accessed the PSN. Bricker Decl. ¶4.Hotz identified four PS3 Systems in his possession. Bricker Decl., ¶4, Exh. C. He explained that he had purchased one of these consoles new in February 2010 and provided the serial number for that console. Id. SCEA used that serial number to determine that on February 25, 2010, Hotz purchased the PS3 System at a Gamestop store just miles from his home. Law Decl., ¶6; Bricker Decl., ¶6, Exh. E. SCEA’s records show that the same PS3 System was used on March 10, 2010 to create a PSN account under the user name “blickmanic.” Law Decl., ¶6, Exh. A. The IP address associated with the registration is located in Glen Rock, New Jersey, where Hotz lives.
Citazione:
Hotz’s ownership of the “blickmanic” account is further supported by the fact that an Internet search of the user name “blickmanic” reveals a posting discussing the jailbreaking of cellular phones – Hotz’s original “claim to fame.” Bricker Decl., ¶7, Exh. F (“Just curious what people would pay for exclusive rights to this solution. [Motorola
