Sony VS GeoHot

So for anyone that doesn't know. GeoHot recently hacked the PS3's firmware and was able to used pirated copies of games on PS3 and get lots of hacks working on games like Modern Warfare 2 etc.

At first, GeoHot was pretty sure that he would win the case and he even made a rap song about it...

But now he might not be that sure anymore as he has fled to South America after the court requested for his hard drives. He did give the hard drives but he removed some parts of them so they wouldn't work. Now when they asked for them, his lawyer simply said that he is out of country.
Also, George Hotz claimed that he didn't make any money out of the jailbreaking but then they checked his PayPal and guess what; he had received money for it.
That topped with the hard drive case almost ends the case and as he is in South America and may not even return; Sony gets a easy win.

Anyways, in my opinion he had it coming...
