ok they do give full disclosure but by rejecting the new agreement and not updating u r also rejecting the part saying u will be blocked for not updating. ask ur lawyer friends about it. u cant implement stipulations should someone refuse to agree as they are not accepting the update or being banned.

yes you can. if it's for compatability!

any ps3 phat not compatable with the NEW FIRMWARE 3.21 would not be compatable with the PSN or some of the new Game's it's been that way ever since, if i purchased a game that say required a new firmware the disc had that on there and i could not play it unless i updated the firmware. I know it's to retain compatability.for example when you sign a new lease, they can change thing's in the lease, every new firmware has a disclaimer what it does with the update.

once again full disclosure..you cannot claim you are getting something removed if they are asking your consent first.

the fact you as the consumer can indeed refuse is the big point. you can say no, thus it is indeed not

Mandatory.

the fact that PSN requires the new firmware for compatability due to security can be stated in order for the the playstation 3 phat's to be compliant for compatability on the PSN and some new game's for the Playstation 3 phat's to be compatable. with the PSN or some of the game's prior to the 3.21 update any pre 3.21 software rquired software will still run offline just not on PSN due to your Playstation 3 phat not being compatable with the PSN's security unless you update it's security .

like i stated you can still have it just not on PSN.
