markass530 writes with this excerpt from Wired: “Sony is threatening to sue anybody posting or ‘distributing’ the first full-fledged jailbreak code for the 4-year-old PlayStation 3 gaming console. What’s more, the company is demanding that a federal judge order Google to surrender the IP addresses and other identifying information (PDF) of those who have viewed or commented about the jailbreak video on a private YouTube page. The game maker is also demanding that Twitter provide the identities of a host of hackers who first unveiled a limited version of the hack in December.”
