Mod Chip Crackdown

Posted by Staff
Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) this week reinforced its determination to crack down on the manufacturers and distributors of ‘mod chips’ when it secured a further High Court injunction, as part of proceedings against two ‘mod chip’ manufacturers.

The Court action was started on 7 December against the two companies, Channel Technology, the company behind the Messiah chip, and Neo Technologies, distributor of the NEO4 chip. The Court found in favour of SCEE, and extended its interim injunction against Channel Technology. The latest Court Order prevents the advertising, selling or promoting of mod chips and requires the handing over of information about the source of the chips to SCEE.
