1) You consented.

2) Nope, the PS3 is still other OS capable. You have no right to PSN, Sony can remove PSN services, or restrict PSN services, for whatever reason they like. And in this case if you want to use OtherOS, you get no PSN.

3) Once again, the service is still there, just don't update PSN. You have no legal right to complain about the removal of service of PSN and therefore no counter-argument here.

4) It is optional. PSN use is optional.

5) I don't really proper understand number 5. My PSP works fine. I updated... what's the problem?

Your points are flawed for the simple fact that eventually ps3 games will have the update in them and must be installed to play them.....no need for PSN there.

You have no legal right to play every piece of PS3 content. The PS3 supports PS3 format game discs as advertised, if you don't want to update to play specific games that's your decision. 

Unless you find a PS3 advert where OtherOS and a game which requires firmware 3.23 or further are advertised together.
