Been on any of Geohot websites? Sony wants your IP...

It looks like Sony will never stop fighting against PS3 jailbreakers especially that intelligent hacker George Hotz. As reported by Wired, a federal magistrate is granting Sony the right to obtain the IP addresses of anyone who visited the web presences of hardware hacker George Hotz between January 2009 and the present day.

Not only that, Sony has also got the right to get data from YouTube, Google and Twitter. In case you usually visit the official site of Geohot, which has been posted on it PS3 jailbreak keys, you may be sued by Sony.

Besides, Sony will get the IP of anyone who watches Geohot channel on YouTube. Anyone who's downloaded the jailbreak.zip file from Geohot's site would be got by Sony.

What does this mean to you?
