This topic makes it blatantly clear which poster's don't understand the concept of ownership and fair use. I should be able to do whatever I want with the things I own as long as I'm not breaking any laws. Just the act of "jailbreaking" anything should NEVER be illegal. Pirating games should be illegal and punishable. Opening up a console for other uses, even if it enables piracy, should not. I don't understand how, as a consumer, you can be OK with this.
Do you really want a corporation telling you what you can and can't do with your own stuff? Because that is where this is leading if this is allowed to stand. You want to tinker with your car or some electronic device? You could end up in the same place as Geohot.
And no, I've never hacked any gaming device or pirated any games.
Go Sony, take away our rights as consumers!

OK I'll give you an example. Lets say I picked up the keys to your house. I went ahead and made copies of that key and give them out to people. Since I'm able to do whatever I want with it, it is not breaking the law. Right?

Yea, I don't think people understand the concept that we as consumers are not purchasing the rights to the software, but instead we are purchasing the rights to the hardware. We don't have the right to tinker with the software, as it is not our property.
