It is safe to say that everyone should probably be a bit more vigilant with finding legitimate + safe sites they download files/ watch/ read from, or just outright avoid the internet plundering for at least a little bit. Stay safe and protect your personal information out there, folks!

Question So I've a question regarding PS5 Jailbreak

5 Upvotes

So, I’m new to this and I’m not planning to jailbreak my console just yet because I don’t really understand how everything works.

Let’s say I jailbreak my console and download games and other stuff. If Sony releases a system update and I install it, does that mean my console will no longer be jailbroken?

And more importantly, is there a risk of Sony banning my PSN account if I jailbreak my console?

News Researches at “The Citizen Lab” have released evidence of how an Israeli ad distribution company called “Discover-Tech” would plant Zero-Click Spyware through targeted online ads. This is why adblockers are VERY important. Don’t let YouTube force you into disabling them.

Discussion Question: GTA VI is releasing on Xbox, why not wait for the Xbox dump and crack that?

324 Upvotes

I'm not sure if this is a dumb question, but isn't Xbox games basically computer games because the Xbox is Microsoft and sort of just a computer?

Wouldn't it be easier to port/crack the Xbox version?

Edit: Thank you for the insight, I understand better now.

Meta will have to name the people who greenlit its torrenting of pirated books.

A federal magistrate judge has ordered the company to identify everyone who approved sourcing books from LibGen and Anna’s Archive.

This goes beyond the employees who ran the downloads and includes whoever decided whether to seed the books to others.
