🛡️LBP Union believes in responsible patching to play LBP online. You need to:
1. Know what server you're connecting to
2. Know the risks
3. Have your full consent
Sticker patching doesn't fit the bill; here's why:
#littlebigplanet#BeaconLBP
ALT Responsible Patching. LBP Union supports patching methods where players can understand the risks, know exactly what server they’re connecting to, and respect intellectual property and services.
✅Patching software (Refresher)
- Empowers the user to choose their server
- Resistant to MiTM attacks
- Forces user to understand the risks.
❌Sticker patching
- Opaque; address cannot be easily customized by end-user
- Hidden server URL means MiTM attack could take place
- Exploits actively supported networks (PSN on PS4/PS5), putting our community at risk

ALT Sackboy smiles for the camera as he wears a sci fi crown. Wires power a PlayStation move controller on the top of the crown. The background contains a mess of creative tools, bits and bobbles, and the iconic LBP mushroom tree against a backdrop of curtains, flags, and ornate pillars.
