With PSP Hacks coming thick and fast, many like MIT Technology have started to wonder if Will Sony Crack Down on PSP Hacks? “The decision on how to react to this PSP hack is a tough one indeed. Any company has a right to defend its intellectual property, but Sony must weigh the balance between coming down hard on this hack and gently steering users away from more malicious modifications,” writes MIT Technology Review. I don’t think it should be something SNE should bother with. The hacks are only prompting the platform which despite all the buzz has sold 500,000 units. They need to let the innovation run wild, if they want to rule a PSP planet. What more, they don’t have any digital chops to act all high and mighty.
