Well, doesn't look like we will be getting GeoHot's (whose real name is George Hotz) untethered iOS 4.2 jailbreak anytime soon. What's worse is that Sony seems to be trying to make an example of the dude with a lawsuit. According to the Washington Post, a recently filed restraining order against the famed hacker, was recently granted by the courts. This was over the key he released that allowed for PlayStation 3 owners to put another operating system on their console.
Sony's claim is that it opened the door to piracy. While it's true that the other OS feature does open the door to piracy, it doesn't necessarily mean that GeoHot condones piracy. He's gone on the record saying that (of course we can't read the guy's mind, either).
We don't claim to be legal experts, but as far as we know jailbreaking a device is legal. The restraining order bars him from releasing the code, and forces him to remove it from his website despite the fact that it's already all over the internet. He must also turn over all his computers, hard drives and anything else that can be used as evidence.
Simple, right? Just delete anything you don't want them to see. Not so fast, as that would probably just be considered attempting to destroy evidence, and get him into real trouble. Let's just hope he doesn't have some strange kind of porn or nudie pics saved on his computer.
Anyone else think Sony should just hire him to help build security into their next system?

Reply is very very interesting, funny and challenging to Sony.

iPhone Hacker Geohot Raps It Out At Sony: Video
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
As you are probably aware, iPhone jailbreak master Geoge Hotz, also known as Geohot is in a spot of bother with Sony over his Geohot’s jailbreak for the PS3 so much so that Sony is taking Geohot along with the failOverflow team to court.
I haven’t looked into all the technical and law wrangling of the dispute as it is for the PS3 but as Geohot is known for his jailbreaking of the iPhone I thought I’d pass this along and apparently you can sift through the information on the lawsuit if you wish by hitting up Here.
However, Geohot isn’t bowing down to Sony and has now apparently come up with a rap, which has been posted to YouTube and comes our way courtesy of the guys over at Daily Mobile and you can view Geohot rapping below.
Here are the lyrics to Geohot’s rap…(warning contains bad language)
Yo it’s geohot
And for those that don’t know
I’m getting sued by Sony
Let’s take this out of the courtroom and into the streets
I’m a beast, at the least, you’ll face me in the northeast
Get my ire up, light my fire
I’ll go harder than Eminem went at Mariah
Call me a liar
Pound me in the ass with no lube, chafing
You’re ****ing with the dude who got the keys to your safe and
Those that can’t do bring suits
Cry to your Uncle Sam to settle disputes
Thought you’d tackle this with a little more tact
But then again fudgepackers, I don’t know Jack
I shed a tear everytime I think of Lik Sang
But shit man, they’re a corporation
And I’m a personification of freedom for all
You fill dockets, like thats a concept foreign to y’all
While lawyers muddy water and TROs stall
Out of business is jail for me
And you’re suing me civilly
Exhibit this in the courtroom
Go on, do it, I dare you
Furthermore if you would like to download the MP3 you can do so by heading Here. So head on down and hit that play button, and if you like as Geohot says, want to “take this out of the courtroom and into the streets” download that MP3…enjoy.
