I should have been clearer in my previous post. What I'm looking for are Sony's concessions. The fact they reached a settlement means that something was given to Geohot in exchange for not hacking Sony products, etc. It could be as simple as indemnification against all current and future lawsuits, or it could extend to monetary payments. I'm curious to find out what this might be.

As one of the folks on that link commented: "That's not the settlement, that's the injunction. We don't know what Hotz got in return for this. And since Hotz isn't legally allowed to tell details of the settlement, it means that we're getting a one sided view of how the settlement was reached. "
So - yeah - I think we only know the terms of the settlement and the agreements Geohot has to abide by. The larger question remains: what's the settlement?

Paul, I had interpreted this as you publishing a Freudian assessment regarding a neurosis you suffer from! Thanks to the internet I discovered that you most likely meant that you "are not a lawyer" which is quite something really. Or were you really confessing a Neurosis?
Confused.

Nope - I'm just warning folks that I Am Not A Lawyer.

P. S. to the admins: You are deleting pretty much of the stuff (web addresses etc.) what other people are posting. Are you sure the United States (where this board is based) are still the land of the free? At least the freedom of speech seems to be totally down.
You should not be surprised if people are leaving this board for other forums. And I write this as somebody who once became victim of entire post deletion on this forum. But what am I doing here - after all YOU have the force to delete also this post.

Where do you get this idea? We generally just delete spam and occasionally have to edit posts to remove certain links that never should have been posted in the first place.
P. S.: Aaaaargh!!! And again, in the post above - a link seems to be removed!
