GeoHot flees to South America, Sony can't turn their frown from the upside down position

By: (more) | Hacking & Security News | Posted: Mar 23, 2011 11:50 pm

The case of George "geohot" Hotz has taken a turn that could not have been predicted with him fleeing to South America to escape the clutches of Sony. Big changes for the case! Sony didn't stop there, according to their court document they've been quoted as saying:

 

geohot_flees_to_south_america_sony_can_t_turn_their_frown_from_the_upside_down_position

 

Hotz had deliberately removed integral components of his impounded hard drives prior to delivering them to a third party neutral and…Hotz is now in South America, an excuse for why he will not immediately provide the components of his hard drives as requested by the neutral. Hotz's attempts to dodge this Court's authority raise very serious questions.
