PSX-Scene has revealed that Sony is expanding its lawsuit against PS3 hackers, moving on from just Geohot and adding well-known hackers Cantero, Peter, Bushing, Segher, hermesEOL, kmeaw, Waninkoko, grafchokolo, kakaroto to its list.
The company will subpoena a number of sites, like PSX-Scene, Twitter, Github, Slashdot and even YouTube, in an attempt to find the location of the defendants.
Many of the hackers, such as hermes, are not located in the U.S., so it is unclear how Sony will be able to bring them to court.
Github was where hackers shared the source codes. The site was recently sent DMCA takedown notices and removed the code.
