The decision nullifies the injunction to ban the sale, made by the same court in September.The court sentenced to Sony, the applicant, the coast and should fix the compensation payable to the defendants by the downtime.These were worth about 35,000 euros for damage caused by the recall of that product.
According to Javier Maestre, counsel for the firm Almeida leading the defense of the defendants, the central argument that led the court to lift the ban is that PSJailbreak is not intended nor is their main objective is to allow pirated game titles but it intend to console other features that Sony itself had joined the same and then retired, as the use of Linux. However, this car does not prejudge the final decision as yet to be concluded in the court proceedings.
In the text of the order, the defendants contend that the manufacturer has given the console "in a number of limitations of use that go beyond the mere protection of your original games, trying to prevent the user from using this device for other uses Sony will not decide. The text recalls that the company "began selling the console with fewer constraints than the current use, and since it began marketing to 01/04/2010, the PSP3 had the functionality to run GNU / Linux, and other operating systems if they were installed on the hard drive of the console, however, citing a supposed improvement in the security of the system, Sony in a controversial decision in April 2010 eliminated the possibility of installing Linux and there are users who feel that since that once this support was publicized, it is wrong to remove it, as it could have been a decisive argument for buying a certain number of users. According to the defense of the defendants, the user is entitled to do with their console "what they want" and otherwise would violate the constitutional right of creation.
Sony has always maintained that the objective is to neutralize PSJailbreak "technological measures for the PlayStation, as well as the supports of their games, all with the purpose of providing it acts which involve violations of intellectual property" .In the lawsuit, the company points out that the distribution of this device "would generate irreparable damage and a severe and disproportionate involvement of the business activities of Sony, which gives employment to 167,000 people around the world."
Sergio Miranda, the lawyer who has defended Sony's position, believes that the judge makes his decision, arguing that Sony has not shown that the main use of these devices is to be able to play pirated titles.And finds it strange because, he says, when asked the expert of the opposing party and raised him why a person would spend a hundred euros to buy this device to a console that costs 300, the expert replied that "obviously there will be many people who probably will use it to copy games in a family environment. " Miralles appeal the court decision because, among other reasons, believes that the narrative comes to a European directive rather than rely on Article 160 of the Spanish Intellectual Property Law which incorporated.
In this issue, the most recent ruling dealt with the use of a cartridge to unlock the Nintendo console. The sentence in Palma was favorable to the video game company but it was a defendant's conviction under that, according to Master, no jurisprudential value because the ruling simply recognizes he has admitted guilt of the accused.
