Turn to the Dark Side! "Unban your PS3, and ban someone else!"

Hot off the press, and on the heels of Sony trying to find all the modded PS3 consoles, comes a funny story from SKFU's Blog (an PS3 researcher/developer), along with a real way to UNBAN yourself, but watch out LEGIT PS3 owners, you could end up being banned by another user!

HOW TO BAN ANY USER

While I read about the big ban tsunami and interesting papers like PSN.PDF posted earlier!


I gone through a funny theory, I won't publish any details tho:

1) The bans are based on the users' account and console ID's.

2) We can modify all traffic sent and received by the PlayStation3

What if some skiddies start to modify their sent traffic to appear as another user and use backups?

The PSN servers would recognize the TOS violation and check the online user database for known connections based on the ID's. The user and his consoles who really owns the ID's would be banned.

Even a simple Windows application which goes through ALL ID's may be possible. 24 hours and any console worldwide would be banned.

This should definitely be double-checked by SONY.

And here is the tutorial that has been posted on various websites around the world, and we [udon't recommend[/u] trying it as you need to borrow your friend's legit CONSOLE ID for it to work, and you just both end up with BANNED consoles and no longer friends!

First of all you need charles running

1 - Which charles running, try to log in to the PSN network, and go to charles (nav/auth) search in the field "CONSOLEID" and copy your id


2 - Go to TOOLS - REWRITE , and add a new rule to the PS3 auth server.


TYPE: BODY

In the First value box, put your ID and in the Replace value box, put another ID of other PS3.

WARNING: DONT WORK WITH RANDOM IDS.
PD: 1 id works with a couple of PS3.

Well SONY what you going to do now?

Banned yourself from the marketplace, turn over online gaming to M$ since they know how to treat their customers and run their LIVE service!
