PS3 becomes an even better media center (that can play absolutely any format) if you use Linux instead of PS3 Media Server. You can run emulators on PS3 using Linux and play them on your TV. With Linux, you can use Firefox on your PS3.

While you're absolutely correct, my point was that a 'regular user' would never had used this feature in the first place. Only the core of the core and/or hackers would use this feature.

Those are far less than the 'average user'. Sony should never have even added this capability.

That's besides the point. They did include it. It's a feature I paid for. And now they want to make me choose between two features I paid for: PSN and Other OS. Removing functionalities they paid for rightfully enrages consumers.

Furthermore, as we have establisheded, removing the Other OS feature won't hinder the hackers, nor will it eventually prevent a hack from being applied to any PS3. On the contrary, it will encourage hackers which means PS3 will be hacked sooner.

So who benefits from removing this?
