I doubt that Sony would do anything other than encourage additional hacking of their system by doing this. If sueing was so effective then why didn't Apple sue Geohot? It isn't like they've shown much restraint in the past.

They didn't sue him because the hack it didn't hurt IPhone HW sales. 

how does PS3 piracy hurt PS3 HW sales? to the contrary, they increase...

piracy hurts  SW sales!

HW sales = no or little profit

SW sales = big profit
