huh I am chilled, lol, I am backing up Sony here they said sorry and explained it is for the greater good, I thought it would be better if a sony fan posted this instead of just a random person, lol

So all it takes is for someone to claim something "is for the greater good" and your fine with it.  Nevermind Sony said it was for security reasons only.

They've never once actually mentioned piracy to my knowledge.  So, how is this for the greater good for removing it because of security issues... that the majority won't ever expierence because they won't even use it?

Not to mention... security problems with Linux on the cell?  Is there even a MORE obscure thing to design a security exploit for?  If they don't bother with Apple why would they bother with this?

Unfortuantely I know so much more about this than you think, GeoHotz went to alot of trouble just to get this far, after thinking about it really it would not surprise me how much futher hackers would be willing to go, do not under-estimate them.

I do not just believe Sony, I know alot of things, unfortunately, I am a programmer I can program in c#, c++, Java, Visual Basic and Assembly language, I could develop some nasty applications if I put my mind to it, but I am not like that.

I used to think it was pointless just to go as far as he did, honestly, he has recked this for every ps linux user out ther, blame him not Sony

If you're working in the software industry, then you should know that we do not bow down to comproises made by hackers. That's the easy way out.

We beat them at their own game. That is all that cyber security comes down to. Back-and-forthing between hacker and developer.
