PlayStation 3 hacker George Hotz has been ordered by U.S. District Court Judge Susan Illston to let Sony inspect his hard drive. In her first pass. Illston said the Hotz needed to retrieve information "that relates to the hacking of the PlayStation." She later apologized to the attorneys and said that asking Hotz to do that was unreasonable.
"It’s information. It can’t be retrieved. It’s just not practical," Illston said. "What would they do, Xerox it and mail it back?"
Illston changed her mind because, she said, she "was not clearly aware of the details in her earlier order."
"This kind of got away from me and I apologize for that," she added.
Hotz' attorney Stewart Kellar complained about the hard drive, noting that Sony would be able to observe the entire contents of the computer. [URL=http://www.gamepolitics.com/2011/02/10/george-hotz-must-let-sony-inspect-hard-drive][B][COLOR=#8e0505]Read More[/COLOR][/B][/URL]
