Geohot order to relenquish hard drive in Sony court case

Posted By | On 11th, Feb. 2011

Having been ordered to give his hard drive up to Sony a month ago in court George Hotz or Geohot, infamous PS3 hacker, requested for the order to be reconsidered. The reconsideration is now over and the ruling remains the same.

District judge Susan Illston told Hotz’s lawyer that “here, I find probable cause that your client has got these things on his computer,” she said. “It’s a problem when more than one thing is kept on the computer. I’ll make sure the order is and will be that Sony is only entitled to isolate … the information on the computer that relates to the hacking of the PlayStation.”

Thanks to CVG for the info.
