Well he could plead ignorance, it happens.
I hope he rots personally, it'll make him think twice before he tries to pimp anything up again.

Copy right laws are copy right laws. You break them, you pay the price.

He wasn't using them for his own use, he was selling the modded consoles for his own profit.

[QUOTE=GiGaBiTe;16729891]You can legally modify a car any way that you want. The part that makes it illegal is if it doesn't meet road requirements. That still doesn't bar you from driving it on private land or raceways.[/QUOTE]

I don't see why you think he didn't do anything wrong.[/QUOTE]

Well when someone starts modifying hardware or making counterfeit hardware that person could be really crappy at it. They could possibly cause a short in the hardware or the hardware could be really crappy quality and thus more prone to breakage that wouldn't happen with a vanilla piece of hardware which could cause problems.
