Geohot Denies Involvement In PSN Hack Attack

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the thats-what-i'd-say-too dept.

Stoobalou writes "Soon-to-be-celebrity hacker and thorn in Sony's side George 'Geohot' Hotz has denied any involvement in the ongoing breach at the PlayStation Network. The 21-year-old hacker — who is best known for creating the first software-based hack for the iPhone, and getting hypervisor access and exposing the root key to the PlayStation 3 — has made it clear that he had nothing to do with filleting Sony's online gaming servers, saying 'I'm not crazy.'"

    Why would he be involved? Holtz is becoming a useless keyword to generate 'news'.

    Stop pulling these stories off the hose just because there's nothing else interesting.
