Sony is waking up to a new PlayStation 3 security nightmare after a day in which a brand new, PSN-enabled custom firmware was released for hacked consoles, swiftly followed up by publication of the console's LV0 decryption keys - which some say blows the system wide open.
The release of the new custom firmware - and

Every friggin' console/game has been hacked and cracked, it's no big deal.
Dumb shits for sitting on it for so long....
Now they shit themselves waiting for the front door to come in!

How easy is it to steal a BMW?
| Quote: | Steve Wood loved his pride and joy, a brand new BMW 1M worth £43,000. In fact, he kept the key in his bedroom every night and hid the spare.
But that didn't stop four brazen thieves stealing his car from his driveway in only three minutes.
Steve had CCTV cameras pointed on his BMW and they recorded the thieves smashing the BMW's window and accessing the car's 'OBD port' in the footwell to reprogramme a spare key. A void on the alarm meant the thieves could smash the glass and put their arm into the car without it going off.
It was then simply a case of pushing the car silently out of the driveway and making off in it, never to be seen again.
Steve said: "The police seemed used to it, almost 'oh another BMW theft'. They were good at keeping me informed but they haven't got anywhere apparently. I spoke to another police officer a few weeks ago and he said they're still being stolen at the same rate. |
| Quote: | BMW has been at the forefront of vehicle security for many years and is constantly pushing the boundaries of the latest defence systems. We work closely with the authorities and with other manufacturers to achieve this. We have a constant dialogue with police forces to understand any patterns which may emerge. This data is used to enhance our defence systems accordingly. Currently BMW Group products meet or exceed all global legislative criteria concerning vehicle security."
Steve's case isn't isolated. Internet forums are awash with similar tales of BMWs and other prestige cars (particularly new ones) being stolen in this manner. |
