Its lawsuit shows “likelihood of success”.
Sony has won a temporary restraining order against the hackers responsible for the widely-publicised PlayStation 3 security breach earlier this month.
According to documents published by PSX Scene, Sony was granted the order so as to prevent “immediate and irreparable damage to SCEA” before court proceedings proper begin.
The ruling explained that Sony “has shown a likelihood of success on the merits of its claims for violation of the DMCA and CFAA, and that it will suffer irreparable harm unless Defendant Hotz’s violations are enjoined.”
