Why do they bother? The scene hackers will be battling with sony for the rest of the vitas life, its just a cat and mouse game they will never win.
Exactly, they're just stopping vhbl users from giving them money(forced update)Quote:

the only way they are going to stop sony is to proxy the update servers so the vita will stop calling home everytime it's switched on, that is the only way they are going to bypass this.Quote:

If Sony never bothered after 3.55, things would be quite different now.Quote:

I thought it was determined that Jailbreaking a Portable Device was Legal? So why is Sony breaking our balls?
For phones it is legal, but not for everything else. But eventhough if it was legal, it is not illegal trying to stop it.Quote:
