PS4 System Software / Firmware 6.71 Released, Don't Update!

Straight out of the WTF department, following their PS4 6.70 Firmware release just a few days ago today Sony pushed yet another PS4 System Software / Firmware 6.71 update with the changelog simply stating "This system software update improves system performance" again.

As always DON'T UPDATE if you wish to use PS4 game backups and homebrew apps when a new jailbreak exploit arrives, and we'll add any related Tweets below as PlayStation 4 scene developers have a chance to examine it.

so when the exploit comes out then is there going to be a update for 6.70 and using that instead of 6.51 because i am still on 6.51 no awaiting exploit.. because i sure hope so my ps4 still has a little bit performance issues on the 6.51 update

All these updates why? I wonder is there a particular reason why $ony is pushing all these updates so quickly because one just came out the other day

So when you are in jb don't update..

Why ? If not for Sony then PS4 never existed. You bought it from Sony and all you have to do is wait for hacker develops team to jailbreak it. Nonsense.

I keep my PS4 standing vertically on my shelf without any support so this stability improvements are much needed. Thanks Sony!
