"PlayStation 3 jailbreaker George Hotz, also known as GeoHot, is
asking for donations to help pay for legal defense fees in his
fight against Sony. He specifically calls the electronic giant a
bully and then outlines why he needs financial help:
"Media, I need your help. This is the first time I have ever
asked. Please, if you support this cause, help me out and spread
the word.
I want, by the time this goes to trial, to have Sony facing some of
the hardest hitting lawyers in the business.
Together, we can help fix the system
Donations here are for legal defense ONLY
I checked with my lawyers before setting this up
If you have another substantial way to donate aside from money, let
me know
"GeoHot says he would hate to lose this case due to resource
starvation and so he needs the support of the masses to set a
precedent for consoles and all closed systems to come"
