Sony Seeks Expedited Information On Hotz' Fellow PS3 Hackers
New court documents issued by Sony show the company attempting to extend its case regarding the recent high-level hack of the PS3 firmware past well-known defendant George "GeoHot" Hotz to others who may be involved in the case.
In court documents sent to hacking community site PSX-Scene.com, legal representation for Sony Computer Entertainment America "disputes whether Hotz has disclosed all relevant facts" surrounding his work on the hack and his contact with anonymous and thus-far unreachable members of the Fail0verflow team that was first responsible for publicizing the PS3 hack, as well as third parties hosting information on the hack.
To that end, Sony is seeking expedited response to subpoenas issued to YouTube, Twitter, Google, PayPal and sites like Slashdot, Kickstarter and Github for information regarding accounts maintained by Hotz and others.
