When I was a kid and didn’t get my own way, I would usually slam a door with all the strength I could muster or walk slowly but very heavy-footed up the stairs to make as much noise as I could in retaliation to the authority of my parents.
Now in the 21st century however, it seems Mr George Hotz has been walking away from the Hotz – Sony court case with a final 2 fingers up at the PS3 developers in giving away the left over legal funds he garnered (in raising support for his case) to the EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) in the amount of $10,000.
Why, you ask? Well the EFF…
“is a donor-funded nonprofit and depends on your support to continue successfully defending your digital rights.”
Thus, as a like-minded group of people akin to that of Mr Hotz, gave their support to the hacker’s so called crusade. Though at least Sony don’t have to worry about any further actions against them as the hacker has claimed that he has no further intention to purchase or hack any of Sony’s products.
