About half the PSPs on PSN have CFW; Alek: only the IPs were logged |

These are actual stats - about half the PSPs on PSN are equipped with CFW. That's a lot of hits, but questions were raised regarding the ethical issues of how these stats were obtained. Users Wololo and Justice in Sceners thinks it's wrong that people have their personal info accessed when they log into the Store.
While many believe that Dark AleX has the right to do whatever he wants with his work, Alek maintains that no such intrusion takes place. "On this information, just the IP connection is logged, and from time to time it's removed from our hands," he wrote. "No more information is on the server, neither MAC, or anything else you were thinking."
One thing's for sure, Dark AleX and the rest of the crew is doing a stand-up job, and the stats agree. Exact figures and more info on the forum can be found via the source link.

Alek on the other hand said, (and I'm paraphrasing) "Unlike Sony, We DO NOT log your info. We're mindful and cooler, HA." or something to that effect. While on M33 CFW you can use network update which also scans your FW revision and pertinent info for upgrading purposes. IPs are logged on Dark-Alex's site as port of pinging requests for updates which is normal.

If only there were an actual source link to click.

It only says that everyday ~20 000 CFW PSPs send ~40 000 hits to the PSN website.
This only means that ~20 000 PSPs connected to PSN with a CFW, and that on average these PSPs connected twice a day.
There is NO information on the OFW PSPs in this graph !!!
If you think there's only 40 000 PSPs in the world connecting to PSN, you're really wrong...

This check does not occur on official PSPs, so there is zero information regarding official firmwared PSPs, but considering the amount of them out there, I would be surprised if the number were less than a million hits per day globally.
This site is full of inaccurate articles though, so this one fits right in.

It's too bad that misinformation like this wont be corrected, or at least removed. Still, I guess if they would prefer to start a crusade against the homebrew community they may as well see how long people will take it before moving on to other forums and websites.

I mean they already let the PS3 play PS1 games, why not, since the PS1 store downloads are still slim pickings, let players rip their own games on the PS3 itself?
Either that or get cracking on flooding the store with more classics. £3.50 for a game from one of the best systems of all time? I'd spend my wages there alone.
